What was the result of the battle of tippecanoe?
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

D) The Native American movement lost some of its power.

Explanation:

The Native American movement lost some of its power. The victory gained by Henry Harrison broke Tecumseh’s power, ending the threat from the side of Indian confederation, although did not become the end of Indian resistance to U.S. expansion into the Ohio Valley.

Having achieved his goal - the expulsion of the Indians from Prophetstown - Harrison declared a decisive victory. But some contemporaries of Harrison, as well as some subsequent historians, expressed doubts about this outcome of the battle. The historian Alfred Cave noted that in none of the modern reports from Native American agents, traders and government officials about the consequences of Tippecanoe one can find confirmation that Harrison won a decisive victory. The defeat was a failure for the Tecumseh Confederation, but the Indians soon restored Prophetstown, and, in fact, border violence increased after the battle.

Many people had opposing viewpoints toward employment insurance during the 1930s. what did president roosevelt most likely mean
kkurt [141]
Roosevelt was indicating that he wanted to protect American workers (with unemployment insurance), but was not encouraging that persons receive government handouts as a perpetual way of life ("the dole").

The expression, "being on the dole," came into use in Britain after World War I, as slang for receiving unemployment benefits, or money being "doled out" by the government.  Frances Perkins, who became Secretary of Labor for the Roosevelt Administration, recalled how Roosevelt had included that line already in a speech as a candidate for the presidency in 1932.  She noted that Roosevelt's words were subtly attractive to voters.  When he said, "I am for unemployment insurance but not for the dole," it signaled a commitment of his candidacy toward helping the unemployed.  "It created a great interest and a great enthusiasm among the voters," she said, and they worked to get such ideas into the Democratic Party's national platform. 

Incidentally, Frances Perkins was the first woman to serve in a cabinet position for the US government.
