History

The text comes from a speech called "The Tariff Bill" given by Hon. Justin S. Morrill of Vermont in the Senate of the United States in 1872.

In this sentence, the senator is arguing that "revenue reform" is just another way to refer to reforms towards free trade. He believes that free trade hurts American labourers by forcing them to compete with cheap imports from other countries. His view is called protectionism. It encouraged the establishment of tariffs in trade in order to protect national industries.

4. What target was not present at Pearl Harbor that proved important in the war in the Pacific? A. Supply ships B. Aircraft carr
worty [1.4K]

The correct answer is B) Aircraft carriers.

The target that was not present at Pearl Harbor that proved important in the war in the Pacific was aircraft carriers.

The Japanese Air Force could not completely destroy the US fleet. Their bombers missed important targets such as US aircraft carrier that was not on the island at that precise moment. The Japanese also missed oil tanks and ammunition warehouses.

The Japanese were able to surprise the US at Pearl Harbor because Japanese aircraft carriers had approached Hawaii unnoticed.

The Pearl Harbor attack happened on December 7, 1941, during World War II. The United States had maintained its distance from the European conflict due to the policy of neutrality installed by US President Woodrow Wilson. However, after the attack, President Wilson asked Congress for a declaration of war and that is how the United States entered World War II.
