Answer:
The Panama Canal's idea was first born from France, in the hope of creating a trade route that was faster in connecting the West (specifically Europe) to the East (China & Japan specifically). However, due to lack of funds, loss of equipment and lives of workers to diseases, the French sold their rights to creating the canal to the United States, who carried out and completed the task of building the Canal. The United States' reason in completing the Canal was to cut down the time it took to sail her Eastern Navy to the West and vice versa, allowing for the sailing to go from months to weeks. This proved itself in the Spanish-American War, in which both navies were able to be called upon to help with invasions on both sides of the world.
The United States also used the Panama Canal for commercial usage, allowing tolls on ships to pass through the area. They relinquished their hold completely to Panama in 1999.

Answer: <em>(A) Felix Longoria Affair</em>
Explanation:
Felix Longoria Affair is a social liberties association for Mexican Americans, to battle racial discrimination with political weight. The chief of the burial service home would not permit the utilization of the house of prayer due to supposed aggravations at past Mexican-American administrations and because of the fact that "the whites dislike it." Longoria's widow and her sister talked about the refusal with Dr. Hector Garcia, the author of the American G. I. Gathering. He, thus, reached the memorial service chief and got a similar refusal and method of reasoning.
And then in 1948 the remaining parts of Private Felix Longoria of Three Rivers, Texas, were recuperated from the Philippines, where he had been killed on a volunteer mission during the most recent long stretches of World War II.
