<h2><u>Answer: </u></h2>

The Houston uproar of 1917, or Camp Logan revolt, was a mob by 156 fighters of the Third Battalion of the all-dark Twenty-fourth United States Infantry Regiment after conflicts with the Houston Police Department. It occurred over a solitary night and brought about the passings of four troopers and 16 regular folks.

The revolting troopers were attempted at three courts-military for insurrection. Nineteen were executed, and 41 were condemned to life detainment.

Soon after the United States pronounced war on the German Empire in the spring of 1917, the War Department raced to develop two new army bases in Harris County, Texas — Camp Logan and Ellington Field. On July 27, 1917, the Army requested the Third Battalion of the Twenty-fourth United States Infantry Regiment to Houston to protect the Camp Logan building site.

The regiment made a trip to Houston via train from their camp at Columbus, New Mexico, joined by seven authorized officers

Which of the following statements best describes the impact of the scandals of the Grant administration?
worty [1.4K]

Correct answer:  B) Voters lost faith in the Republican Party’s handling of Reconstruction.

Grant had granted positions in his administration to people he thought he could rely on, rather than choosing them based on their merits and qualifications.  The poor governance and scandals included members of his cabinet as well as other government agencies.  There is no relationship to the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad, as that project was nearly complete already when Grant took office as president.  (His presidential term began March 4, 1869.  The Transcontinental Railroad was completed May 10, 1869.)

Reform movements began to appear in response to the corruption in the Grant administration, not only in the Democratic Party, but also among Republicans.  The Liberal Republicans were a faction that split from Republican Party in 1872, to oppose the reelection of Grant.

mars1129 [50]
According to a number of historians, <span>the Soviet Union attempted to obscure the Jewish aspect of the concentration camps, at least in Soviet media accounts in the wake of the liberation of concentration camps in 1944 and 1945.  In the Russian press, the Germans were depicted as simple beasts, but their focus on killing Jews in the concentration camps was down played in the media if not actually outright hidden. </span>
