Union did not violate DFR when it refused to take charging parties' complaints over transfer to arbitration. Union executive board was entitled to consider negative effect that a success in the arbitration would have on the unit as a whole. This was a rational, non-arbitrary decision not motivated by hostility or bad faith toward the charging parities.
