Call No: HI-INT 975.3 DIC   Edition: Dover edition.    Availability:1 of 1     At Location(s) Summary Note: "Forty-five thousand World War I veterans invaded President Herbert Hoover's Washington D.C. in the Depression summer of 1932 demanding payment of the bonus they had been promised eight years earlier for their wartime service.
