For a month San Franciscans have stopped to stare idly at what, so far as anybody knows, were the first Chinese picket lines in the U. S.

Also, last week, the Ladies' Garment Workers applied for an injunction to stop Joe Shoong from putting signs in his windows implying that the dispute was purely jurisdictional.

F. of L., the union objected to one small, rather plaintive sign in Chinese reading: "No Strike Here."
