The correct answer is B, as the Einstein-Szilard letter warned President Roosevelt that Germany was researching nuclear weapons.

The Einstein-Szilárd letter was a missive written by Leó Szilárd and signed by Albert Einstein, sent to the President of the United States Franklin D. Roosevelt on August 2, 1939. Written by Szilárd after consulting with his compatriots and friends, the Hungarian physicists Edward Teller and Eugene Wigner, the letter warned of the danger that Germany could develop atomic bombs, and suggested that the United States should start its own nuclear program. It incited Roosevelt to take immediate action, which ultimately resulted in the beginning of the Manhattan Project and the development of the first atomic bombs.

Which feature of the Declaration of Independence is NOT emphasized in the South Carolina Declaration of Secession? a) the inalie
liraira [26]

Answer: a) the inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness

Explanation:

The State of Southern Carolina began it's Secession Declaration by stating that... "<em>deems it due to herself, to the remaining United States of America, and to the nations of the world, that she should declare the immediate causes which have led to this act</em>". This invalidates option D because they believe themselves obliged to declare their reason for seeking independence.

The Declaration then speaks on the notion that Governments are established by humans to aid them to certain ends. End which if not met, constitute a just cause to remove the Government from power. This invalidates option B.

In the last part of the Declaration, South Carolina alluded to its reasons for seeking independence being that the Northern Non-slave states had violated statutes that required them to return slaves who escaped from a slave state. This invalidates Option C.

Option A was never alluded to in the Secession Declaration of South Carolina and little wonder why. As a state that was in support of slavery, to maintain that all people had<em> the inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, </em>they would have been invalidating the institution of slavery and so they abstained from emphasising it.

At the Constitutional Convention, what proposal for state representation was supported by smaller states but not by larger ones?
tino4ka555 [31]

The New Jersey Plan was favored by smaller states because it gave equal representation to all states. The Virginia Plan, in contrast, distributed representation based on population, which naturally favored larger states.
