This was during the time of President Hoover. I've seen quite a few photos of him looking at the ashes and rubble.
I would say Hoover.
Hope this helps!
The south lost the civil war and eventually had to free their slaves but then even after this was set in place either they did not let their slaves go still or the slaves stayed anyway because they had no where else to go no job, health, or food source. Help that helps.

Invasions by Barbarian tribes. ...
Economic troubles and overreliance on slave labor. ...
The rise of the Eastern Empire. ...
The most important reason for the collapse of Rome was the failure to actually integrate what they conquered. When Roman soldiers conquered new lands, it was rare that they ever attempted to force their culture, ideals, or laws upon the natives and barbarians. Thus, when the Empire began suffering internal struggles, the natives they had conquered decided to take action, which lead to the swift collapse by barbarian invasion from all sides. It's hard to pick a LEAST important reason, seeing that there were many of them, but I suppose a contender would most likely be the common refusal of the Empire to even acknowledge that barbarians were rising. On the outer edges of their territory, in places like Gaul and Morocco, the Roman government was reluctant to even recognize the threat of the barbarians, thinking that even accepting that these barbarians were causing trouble would weaken their prestige in the public eye.
