(Original Caption) 10/13/1933-Tulare County, California- Throughout the San Joachin Valley was an air of hope that the strike of 12,000 workers, which has paralyzed the harvesting of California's $10,000,000 cotton crop, may soon be ended, but the tenseness and danger of clashes between strikers and growers has not been dissipated. A caravan of strike pickets patrol a road south of Tulare, seeking to halt workers on ranches in the district where the walkout of the pickers has already led to bloodshed. Note the highway police opn guard.
