No member shall be pecuniarily or otherwise interested in any organization of railroad employees or any carrier. The board shall perform its functions subject to the availability of funds.

Sec. 2.Report.

The Board shall report its findings to the President with respect to the dispute within 30 days after the date of its creation.
