perbonal antipathy and job
 The abolition of craft unions means tho abolition of lush jobs for many A. '. of 2. executives. The craft union is the hand-Ele. down from the days Of Samuel oompers. It includes only one particular trade within m indus try, as for instance, only the care penters in the building industry, or, only the gtereotypers igi the printing industry. The industrial union includes oil workcrg in Q given industry, no matter what their individual trades niaye be. The Difference
 Thus the industrial union can win 6 strike more successfully than Q craft union, since it can caIl out all workers in Q given inc dustry. A craft union strike may affect only one group such as the nlachillists ii1 c certain factory, leaving oil other workers on the job.
 Leaders of the craft and Indus- trial gr0upg within the A. '. of |. dislike each other with oil the bitetrieeS some union leaders have agaiist some employers possibly more.
 There ls no great personal
 dislike between William Green an6 John |. Lewis, chief leaders Of the two warring factions.
