THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1932.

The troops, with their gas and bayonets, had come and gone, leaving smouldering desolation behind them. Members of the bonus army in Washington had been effectively routed by charging cavalry. Those who had famílies, and were able to keep them together, sought refuge wherever they could-in parks, in littered vacant lots. Their own ahelters and most of their personal be longings were gone. Hungry children whimpered; mothers wept hystorically. Such a scene is pictured here as a family of refugees awaited a cheerless dawn.
