Porters carry sacks on the quay at Haifa

On a quay beside the dark hull of a ship, men in headcloths, caps and patched aprons stoop under large sacks and carry them off, while others lift more from a heap in the foreground. The deep-water harbour of Haifa, opened by the Mandate government in 1933, had become the principal port of Palestine.
