Denial of Radicals in Bonus Army by Washington Police Chief
Brig. Gen. Pelham D. Glassford disputed Attorney General Mitchell's claim that radicals were numerous in the Bonus Army. He said police records contradict several cabinet assertions and denied warning District officials of an imminent need for federal troops. He warned of possible bloodshed if evictions resumed and urged federal aid if such action was planned.

Glassford replies to questions on federal troops and crime
The commissioner's letter quotes Glassford affirming the need for federal help if the situation worsened. Mitchell had described the Bonus Army as the largest criminal gathering in city history. Glassford notes fewer crimes during June and July than August after evictions, with 12 criminal arrests among 362 total during those two months. Also mentions two Illinois communities Henpeck and Harmony nearby.
