...well Brennan's new hat will fit is another matter.* It is surely not one he is used to. Born and bred in Manhattan's Hell's Kitchen, given to plain speech laced with profanity, Brennan is a local power, to be sure, but he lacks a national constituency and-some would say-anything approaching national vision. Though he is respected by George Meany, he is not a member of the AFL-CIO executive committee. He speaks for a well-paid labor elite, not for the industrial rank and file...
