Question 24 • S1S-OC: US History A (E1202 - AG)

How did the events surrounding the Bonus Army in 1932 affect people’s attitudes?

Answer
A
More Americans wanted MacArthur to be president.
B
More Americans disliked Hoover.
C
More Americans joined the Bonus Army.
D
More Americans wanted help from the RFC.

Explanation

In 1932, World War I veterans who wanted their bonus payments early gathered in Washington, D.C. President Hoover ordered the army to remove them, and the forceful dispersal—including burning their camp—shocked many Americans. The episode increased public criticism of Hoover, so the correct choice is “More Americans disliked Hoover.”
