Answer:
Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938
Explanation:
The Supreme Court had been one of the major obstacles to wage-hour and child-labor laws. Among notable cases is the 1918 case of Hammer v. Dagenhart in which the Court by one vote held unconstitutional a Federal child-labor law. Similarly in Adkins v. Children's Hospital in 1923, the Court by a narrow margin voided the District of Columbia law that set minimum wages for women. During the 1930's, the Court's action on social legislation was even more devastating.3
New Deal promise. In 1933, under the "New Deal" program, Roosevelt's advisers developed a National Industrial Recovery Act (NRA).4 The act suspended antitrust laws so that industries could enforce fair-trade codes resulting in less competition and higher wages. On signing the bill, the President stated: "History will probably record the National Industrial Recovery Act as the most important and far-reaching legislation ever enacted by the American Congress." The law was popular, and one family in Darby, Penn., christened a newborn daughter Nira to honor it.
As an early step of the NRA, Roosevelt promulgated a President's Reemployment Agreement "to raise wages, create employment, and thus restore business." Employers signed more than 2.3 million agreements, covering 16.3 million employees. Signers agreed to a workweek between 35 and 40 hours and a minimum wage of $12 to $15 a week and undertook, with some exceptions, not to employ youths under 16 years of age. Employers who signed the agreement displayed a "badge of honor," a blue eagle over the motto "We do our part." Patriotic Americans were expected to buy only from "Blue Eagle" business concerns.
In the meantime, various industries developed more complete codes. The Cotton Textile Code was the first of these and one of the most important. It provided for a 40-hour workweek, set a minimum weekly wage of $13 in the North and $12 in the South, and abolished child labor. The President said this code made him "happier than any other one thing...since I have come to Washington, for the code abolished child labor in the textile industry." He added: "After years of fruitless effort and discussion, this ancient atrocity went out in a day."

The correct answer is option "D".
After the U.S. Supreme Court ruled on Brown v. Board of Education in 1954, President Eisenhower made clear his constitutional duty to uphold the Supreme Court's ruling. Although President Eisenhower did not fully support the Brown v. Board of Education decision, despite his reticence when dealing with racial issues, he acknowledged his constitutional responsibility so as to uphold the Supreme Court’s rulings. Eisenhower believed that the process of desegregation had to go slowly, since integration required a change in people's hearts and minds. However, when Eisenhower finished his mandate in 1961, only 6 percent of African American students attended integrated schools.
The organizing principle of that list is CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER.
"Between the World Wars" would cover the years from November 1918 (end of World War I) to September, 1939 (start of World War II in Europe).
Eisenhower's presidency came after World War II. Eisenhower was in office as President from January, 1953, to January, 1961.
"The 1960s" would be the next chronological item in the list, starting at the end of the Eisenhower years and covering the next decade.
