Dae to a misunderstanding and lack of sufficient notice to the French authoriiles, a somewhat delicate situation existed for about 40 minutes on the Bund at 1s junction with the Quai de France, recently, when a supply convoy of Japanese trucks was hailed by the French police as they were attempting to proceed through the Concession to Nantao, After explanations, the trucks were allowed to pro- eced under escork. This excellent photograph gives a bird's eye view of the Incident. The line of French police and members of the French Special Bilgole may be seen barring the way into the Concession, while the trucks and official ear can be seen. Interested crowds can be seen gathered at a safe distance.
