which looks better, most of half a dozen, or most of a hundred?
i was for many years a member of the plumbers and pipefitters – a trade union – and recording secretary of the local for the last few years. there is a distinct difference between trade unions and industrial unions. trade unions tend to be more conservative than industrial unions
