Answer:

farmers

Explanation:

The Interstate Commerce Act of 1887 was passed by President Grover Cleveland. This law was intended to regulate the transport of goods through railway industries. Under this law, rail industries were required to set fair tariffs for the transport of goods without discriminating prices for smaller markets that shipped less freight, and they had to disclose tariffs that were to be fair and reasonable.

Farmers became very supportive of this regulation, as it reduced spending on the transportation of agricultural products and tools, as well as favoring small farmers.

How long did the flag of 1956
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Georgia's 1956 Flag

In 1955 the Atlanta attorney and state Democratic Party leader John Sammons Bell began a campaign to substitute the square Confederate battle flag for the red and white bars on Georgia's state flag.  

State Flag, 1956-2001

State Flag, 1956-2001

Along with Bell, state senators Jefferson Lee Davis and Willis Harden, who were well known for their interest in Georgia's Confederate history, agreed to introduce legislation to change the state flag. Some legislators favored the adoption of a standard state flag as an appropriate way to mark the upcoming centennial of the Civil War. A strong impetus for change, however, was the 1954 and 1955 Brown v. Board of Education decisions, which were bitterly denounced by most Georgia political leaders. The entire 1956 legislative session was devoted to Governor Marvin Griffin's platform of "massive resistance" to federally imposed integration of public schools. In this charged atmosphere, legislation to put the Confederate battle flag on Georgia's state flag sailed through the General Assembly.

vesna_86 [32]

That made the south a wealthy place and made the economy of USA flourish in the south. The other reason the Slavery was so popular was as servants who would be in the house and serve food for guests. Another example is that they used to baby sit the child that cannot be left alone. Overall slavery was a belief that the White man was superior thus to the black man or as they called the black people back then a Negro. Slavery was later made illegal by Abraham Lincoln shortly after the American Civil War in 1861.
