Chinese Americans march with boycott placards

Past shop fronts and a hanging American flag a long column of marchers comes up the street two and three abreast; at the front a Chinese man in a light coat and hat carries a placard reading Silk on your legs means bullets for Japanese guns, a Chinese girl walks beside him, and further back placards read Make shipments of war materials to Japan illegal. American women were asked to give up Japanese silk stockings, one of Japan's chief exports.
