The war ended on November 11, 1918, and America's economic boom quickly faded. Factories began to ramp down production lines in the summer of 1918, leading to job losses and fewer opportunities for returning soldiers. This led to a short recession in 1918–19, followed by a stronger one in 1920–21
After his education in the public schools of Rochester, New York, Eastman worked briefly for an insurance company and a bank. In 1880 he perfected a process of making dry plates for photography and organized the Eastman Dry Plate and Film Company for their manufacture. The first Kodak (a name he coined) camera was placed on the market in 1888. It was a simple handheld box camera containing a 100-exposure roll of film that used paper negatives. Consumers sent the entire camera back to the manufacturer for developing, printing, and reloading when the film was used up; the company’s slogan was “You press the button, we do the rest.” In 1889 Eastman introduced roll film on a transparent base, which has remained the standard for film. In 1892 he reorganized the business as the Eastman Kodak Company. Eight years later he introduced the Brownie camera, which was intended for use by children and sold for one dollar. By 1927 Eastman Kodak had a virtual monopoly of the photographic industry in the United States, and it has continued to be one of the largest American companies in its field.

Explanation:
The Bonus Army March was a demonstration of the hunger march of World War I veterans who met in the summer of 1932 during the Great Depression in Washington, DC, with the demand to pay their contractual military certificates ahead of schedule. The law of 1924 gave them the right to receive veteran pension payments (bonuses) for certificates issued to them when they reached old age (they could not receive payments until 1945). Each certificate issued to a qualified veteran soldier had a face value equal to 1 percent of the promised soldier reward, per day. The main requirement of the Bonus Army was the immediate payment of cash certificates.
