Answer:

<em>D. House Un-American Activities Committee.</em>

Explanation:

Because the Cold War escalated, it became recognized as the Red Scare, the hysteria over the supposed danger posed by communists in the USA.

The Government of the United States responded by establishing the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), tasked with detecting communist dangers to the U.S.

HUAC was founded in 1938 to prosecute suspected treachery and subversive behavior by private individuals, public workers and institutions accused of communist connections.

Americans who are accused of having ties with the Communist Party will be prosecuted in court.

“We desire you will hear and receive what we have now told you, and that you will open a good ear and listen to what we are now
sammy [17]
The American colonists were eager to keep the Native American nations out of the mix when it came to the war with the British.  The Native Americans could have looked at this as an opportunity to cause trouble for the white colonists and take advantage of the situation.  Or the colonists could have looked at the Native American nations as potential allies and made promises to them if they assisted in the war effort.  But the colonists appealed to native nations with a message of friendship -- not asking them to join in war against Britain, but also that they not act against the colonists' cause.  

The quoted speech, by the way, was addressed to these Native American nations:  <span>Mohawks, Oneidas, Tusscaroras, Onondagas, Cayugas, and Senekas.</span>

jenyasd209 [6]

The US government provided American Indians with rations of bacon, beef, flour, coffee, sugar, soap, and soda. These food items were consistent with the Plains Indians’ diets. Annuities that were provided included blankets, clothing, needles, tin cups, and small axes. Many American Indians were dissatisfied with the reservations because of the restrictions on their freedom and the loss of their traditions. Also, the government did not provide the American Indians with enough food supplies to feed everyone, and many tribal members ended up leaving the reservations.
