1930s: Texans, like people across the country, were deeply affected by the Great Depression, especially those in agricultural areas. This photo by famous photographer Dorothea Lange was part of the US government’s effort to document the effects of the Depression. Pictures like this played an important role in building support for New Deal programs. The photographer’s caption reads:

“Family between Dallas and Austin, Texas. The people have left their home and connections in South Texas, and hope to reach the Arkansas Delta for work in the cotton fields. Penniless people. No food and three gallons of gas in the tank. The father is trying to repair a tire. Three children. Father says, ‘It’s tough but life’s tough anyway you take it.’”

Shelter bed voucher, Friday 10 March 1933

Instead of operating their own shelters, the government reimbursed private landlords for housing the homeless during the depression, in this case, an SRO at 237 Main Street.

In October 1936, the RCMP reported in its weekly intelligence report to Ottawa that the Hamilton Hall relief office, which issued this ticket, was occupied by unemployed men demanding relief:

Approximately 300 single unemployed men invaded the relief offices at Hamilton Hall, Vancouver, B.C., at 10:00 a.m. on 13th October demanding relief. They forced through the doors striking a policeman on guard there, proceeded to break up furniture and barricaded themselves for 35 minutes until police reserves, using tear-gas bombs, forced them from the building. Sixty-three arrests were made after the clash with the police, bringing the total number of arrests made recently up to 110. Forty-seven other men were previously arrested on charges of obstructing the police. A number of those arrested as a result of the clash at Hamilton Relief Office have been charged with rioting. It is estimated that close to 1,000 single men, transients, have converged on Vancouver during the past few weeks.
