The statement that is most likely an effect of the Dust Bowl is:

Oakies started down Route 66 toward possible work.

During the Dust Bowl in the 1930s, many families, particularly from Oklahoma (often referred to as "Okies"), migrated to California and other states in search of work and a better life, often traveling along Route 66.
