HELMETED SOLDIERS COMPLETE EVACUATION
 VET BONUS SEEKERS

WASHINGTON, D. C., July 30, - An army of steel-helmeted federal troops maintained virtually mar tial law in the national capital as it completed the evacuation of thousands of members of the Be- nus expeditionary force from all government property in the Dis trict of Columbia.
 The evacuation casualties totaled one dead and 20 injured and gas- sed. Calmness prevailed thru the capital, although four great fire scared areas marked the spots where thousands of bonus march CTS were encamped for several months past.
 The veterans are fleeing the city as from a pestilence, as the troops drove them relentlessly with tear gas bombs from one encampment after another.
 The bonus army, beaten and beWildered army without a coun- try, was still on the march Friday evening and today. They still marched for the Stars and Stripes. However, they were driven from the seat of the nations capitol and also found their way barred in Maryland and Pennsylvania.
 The men are kept moving and all attempts to converge in large num- bers, whidh later might prove troublesome, are being discourag- ed by the soldiers who are driving their soldier forbears to their for mer homes.
 President Hoover, in a confer ence with newspaper men, again reiterated his stand that the men, ace Of communism was being fought and he stated a challenge to the order of the United States had been dealt with in swift order. How ever, other sources said that every man in the bonus army was a vet eran and it was stated by these Of ficials that every man in the groups which had caused trouble, were war veterans and that their service re- cords and discharge papers had been examined.
 Senator King, of Utah, stated the events at Washington were the most deplorable happening in the history of America.
 Others described the presidents action of calling out the United States army as "high-handed and heartless." Still another said that the United States has been given 'black-eye' the world over be- cause of this evasion of bonus de- mands which in reality is a result Of the administration to meet the present economic adversity."
 The American Red Cross has of fered to provide free transportation to the wives and children of the bonus seekers who are at Washing ton. They said they would also ex- tend these privilegs to the men also, if they desired.
 Waters, who has been in charge Of the army, accompanied by his wife and children, is enroute to In- diana where he will stay with his parents-in-law. He is undecided as to what he intends to do next.
