Money
Explanation:
These were veterans of World War 1 who were promised a bonus for their service. By 1932, with the depression heavy on American workingman, veterans gathered in front of the White House on the promenade in what was labeled "Hooverville." It was a protest meant to embarrass the president into giving them their promised money.
