LEVIN H. CAMPBELL, Circuit Judge.
This is an appeal from a decision of the district court denying a preliminary injunction under section 10(7) of the National Labor Relations Act, as amended, 29 U.S.C. § 160(7).
The facts are essentially undisputed. In December of 1979, armed forces of the USSR invaded Afghanistan. In protest of that action, on January 9, 1980, Thomas Gleason, President of the International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA), ordered members of the ILA to cease handling cargoes bound for or arriving from the USSR and all cargoes traveling on ships of USSR registry. 1
