[Longshoremen picketing]

Workers, presumably belonging to International Longshoremen's Association, picketing in unknown location, possibly plaza in downtown Brooklyn, with signs reading, "This is not Russia, Mr. Dewey, we oppose state control of any union," "USA not USSR, Mr. Dewey, we demand our rights as Americans and veterans," and "Let the majority be heard, don't listen to minority groups."
