Question 16 • US History

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

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

Explanation

In 1932, World War I veterans marched on Washington to demand early payment of their bonuses. When federal troops forcibly cleared the Bonus Army’s camp, news and images of the eviction angered many Americans and damaged President Hoover’s reputation. So the event made more Americans dislike Hoover, not favor MacArthur or the RFC.
