1 answer:

7 0

The right answer is A: Governmental laws, supported by Nativists, limited the number of immigrants coming into the US. This political cartoon, which appeared in The Literary Digest in 1921, shows a funnel extended across the Atlantic Ocean, with its wide opening in the European side, overflowed with emigrants, and its small opening in the American side, where Uncle Sam, holding a tag that reads "gate" with a "3%" tag attached to it, is allowing just a few of them to enter the country. The imagery, as well as the title of the cartoon ("The Only Way to Handle It"), are a direct reference to the Emergency Quota Act of 1921, which limited the annual number of immigrants admitted into the United States from any country to 3% of the number of residents from those countries that were already living in the U.S. as per the census of 1910.

madam [21]

Answer:

America entered World War I on account of sympathy.

The election took place during the time of the Mexican Revolution and World War I.

Although officially neutral in the European conflict, public opinion in the United States leaned towards the Allied forces headed by Great Britain and France against the German Empire and Austria-Hungary, due in large measure to the harsh treatment of civilians by the German Army in Belgium and northern France and the militaristic character of the German and Austrian monarchies, but in spite of their sympathy with the Allied forces most American voters wanted to avoid involvement in the war and preferred to continue a policy of neutrality
