Answer 1

Answer: Many of the veterans of World War I who found themselves and their families suffering during the Depression wanted the government to pay their bonuses early. Many of them became dissatisfied with congressional and presidential action on this matter and decided to demonstrate in favor of the desired action by joining in a march on Washington. Frightened and threatened by this group, Hoover had them attacked by federal troops under General Douglas MacArthur. They resented Hoover and felt he did not understand their problems.

Answer 2

Answer: Hoover urged voluntary action for dealing with the problems of the Depression. While he increased federal action, he refused to in any way impinge on the power of state government or provide direct federal relief, for fear of disturbing traditional state-federal relations. He did encourage passage of the Agricultural Marketing Act and establishment of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation to make loans to businesses.

Answer 4
