Waters last night Informed police
he was willing to evacuate the area
peacefully in view of the fact that
"mends" had provided a camp site
and money for barracks elsewhere.
His plan was that the veterans
move to that site.
Waters maintained he did not de

his own will and based his plea on
the argument that It would benefit
the bonus army In the long run to
evacuate and form a permanent
