The interests of the Industrial Union, in this case the interests of all workers in a printery, are the dominating ones. Here the august maxim is applied: ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL. The picayune and egotistical craft interests must here submit to the general interests of all industrial workers. That is the reason why it
