Herbert Hoover - Wikipedia
August 10, 1874 – October 20, 1964, the
31st
President of the United States
from 1929 to 1933 during the Great Depression. A Republican, as Secretary of
Commerce in the 1920s he introduced
Progressive Era themes of
efficiency in the business community and provided government support for
standardization, efficiency and international trade. As president from 1929 to
1933, his ambitious programs were overwhelmed by the
Great Depression, which
seemed to get worse every year despite the increasingly large-scale
interventions he made in the economy.

Marsh Lake
in
2010!" Pelican (American White Pelican) Banding Program
Janie Giltner: Tagged Birds
These are photos of the pelican taken by Janie at the lock and dam 14* on the IL
(Illinois)
side.
July 31,
2014: Janie kindly e-mailed us, saying “I shot one of your pelicans with my
camera. It's a green tag with black numbers reading 442! I was at the lock and
dam 14* on the IL side. He was very happy eating fish healthy looking. He told
me to tell you hello! But I would love to know more about this bird If you have
info. I can send you a picture if you would like!” We forwarded Janie’s message
to Jeff DiMatteo, the leader of the Pelican Banding Program; see our Letter
205
Pelican (American White Pelican) Banding Program.
Jeff replied to Janie, “That pelican was one of 2000 pelican chicks banded as a
flightless young on 26 June 2010 at the Marsh Lake pelican colony in
Minnesota.” Later Janie reported her pelican sighting to
THE NORTH AMERICAN BIRD BANDING PROGRAM - BIRD BANDING
