Former President Hoover Slams Gov Rolph Over San Jose Lynchings
In San Francisco on December 1, former President Herbert Hoover and California Governor James Rolph Jr. clashed over the San Jose lynchings and the Bonus Army episode in Washington. Hoover criticized Rolph for praising the lynching and warned that state troops could have averted bloodshed. Rolph denied advocating lynch law and defended lawful action, noting California would not tolerate kidnapping. A mob had dragged John Holmes and Thomas Thurmond from the San Jose jail, killing Brooke Hart.
