In 1932, the worst year of the Great Depression, more than twenty thousand mostly homeless World War I veterans trekked to the nationâ s capital to petition Congress to grant them early payment of a promised bonus. Washington, DC, police chief Pelham Glassford defied the government for months and found food and shelter for the veterans.
