<u><em>A major concern of scientists who left Nazi Germany for the United States before World War II was that they feared Germany was trying to develop nuclear weapons. </em></u>

Further Explanations:

The theory of  Nuclear fission was developed by German scientist Otto Hahn and Fritz Stresemann in 1938 while theoretical facts were conceded by Lise Meitner and Otto Frisch. These factors were directing towards the institution  of atomic bombs by Germany and blanket the researchers who fled from Nazi Germany and other fascist nations. On 21st October 1939, a meeting was held to converse the issues. Briggs on the orders of President Franklin D. Roosevelt supervised the Advisory Committee. The committee finally re-counted the consequences and pointed it to Roosevelt in November. He proposed that uranium was  the base component for bombs and can result in a great and fierce destruction.  

It was a well-known fact that Germany lost his pride with the defeat in the First World War and its condition later was deteriorated  by the “Treaty of Versailles” that loaded the whole burden of war on Germany. The era gave rise to a new administration, Nazi Germany under the governance of Adolf Hitler. Hitler led all the footsteps to boost up the economy of the nation and upsurge the nation's pride. He wanted to develop a nuclear bomb to prove the nation’s  supremacy to the world.

Which is an argument in favor of free trade? A) Placing caps on trade levels will help insure fair competition among all sides.
Agata [3.3K]

The correct answer is B) fewer trade barriers will lead to increased trade, production, and revenues for all sides.

<em>An argument in favor of free trade is "fewer trade barriers will lead to increased trade, production, and revenues for all sides."</em>

In modern democracies, free trade is a great tool for imports and export goods with attractive revenues for all countries. Fewer trade barriers will lead to increased trade, production, and revenues for all sides, and it's a good foreign policy also, that helps to foster and maintain dimplonat relationships between countries.

A good example can be NAFTA, the North American Free Trade Agreement between Mexico, Canada, and the United States, that was recently renegotiated by the three countries and now exists under the new name of UMSCA, United States, Mexico, and Canada Agreement.
