Nation of Stewards. Feather's problem is that, as far as labor goes, Britain has always been a nation of shop stewards. The rank and file flout their national leaders, who generally pay little attention to "the blue-collar blokes." Moreover, the T.U.C. is a loose conglomeration of strong individual unions. Since June, Feather has been jawboning his union chiefs on the virtues of labor discipline on the shop floor. His main argument: if the T.U.C.'s voluntary approach fails, Labor will be defeated at the polls, leaving the unions at the not-so-tender mercies...

...Productivity, Barbara Castle. At 29, choosing unionism "because I wanted to get rid of poverty," Feather started off with the T.U.C. as a local organizer. He is still well known among the rank and file, and he is not at all reluctant to personally wade into trouble on the shop floor.

...fact, the relationship is pragmatic rather than cordial. Even during construction at Aswan where 3,000 Soviet engineers lived and worked shoulder to shoulder with Egyptians, few friendships developed. In Cairo today, thousands of Russians live clannishly in their own apartment blocks, drink at their own clubs and shop at their own commissaries-from which some of the Soviets purchase extra vodka and sell it to Egyptian merchants to pad their sparse salaries. The Egyptians cannot complain, though, that the Russians shy away from hardships or dangers. Last July as many as six Russian advisers were reportedly killed...
