The people at the ranch in the donner party
Were afraid to travel in the winter
Thought Mr. Thomas was making the story up
Wanted to use dogs and special equipment for the search
Were anxious to locate survivors

the dust bowl, otherwise known as the dirty thirties, was a huge dust storm that killed multiple (and i mean  multiple) farmer's crops, leaving them homeless, and foodless, and jobless. in california, there were 5.7 million residents, and the population shrank as mexicans were repatriated. however, when the dustbowl happened, a lot of people began to move to california. by 1940, 250,000 people had arrived. therefore, your answer would be  the population increased, massively.  i hope this !
