Answer:

<em>By using military force against its members</em> is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The gathering of 12,000 to 15,000 world war one veterans and their wives, children in Washington D.C in 1932 is known as Bonus army. They demanded payment for their wartime services to ease the distress of great depression. Although Congress had voted for compensation certificates but but the veterans could not get the payment until 1945. The veterans engaged in riots. Herbert Hoover intervened by calling the troops which were led by General Perry L. Miles. While removing the veterans one veteran got killed and many more were wounded. The troops destroyed their campsites by using teargas and tanks. The event was a big blow to president Hoover. Another bonus army marched to D.C in May 1933 but unlike Hoover they were welcomed by Eleanor Roosevelt.

Answer:

Find the explanation below.

Explanation:

1. The passage explains the conflicts and disagreements that existed between the Mexicans and Americans before the start of the Mexican-American war. The two nations failed to agree on a defined boundary for Texas. The following statement supports this fact, "In 1844, annexation was negotiated between Texas and the U.S. with an important wrinkle: the southern boundary was the Rio Grande. This border had been rejected by the Mexican Congress in favor of the Nueces River farther north." This disagreement formed the basis of the war.

2. The United States was not justified in going into war with the Mexicans. The measures Polk used in resolving this matter appears deceitful and not straightforward. Placing military presence in California when the two nations had not agreed to terms and even offering bribe to an exiled dictator, were not good ways of reaching to terms.
