5 0

The term muckrakers was used to refer to reformist American journalists who attacked political leaders and instutions for their corrupt practices during the Progressive Era. Most of these journalists were popular due to their publications in popular magazines.

<u>Lincoln Steffens and Claude Wetmore wrote an article about St Louis in  1902 in McClure's Magazine. </u>

They wrote about how paradoxical was that people constinously showed pride in St Louis, and how this contrasted with the awful image of the city. They pointed out how people in St. Louis claimed to have very wealthy inhabitants, together with the best banks, industries, etc., but how at first sight it was possible to observe uncared-for streets, dirty alleys, a filthy hospital, the unfinished construction repairs in the town hall, etc.

How did Congress affect Wilson’s efforts to protect working women and children during the war?
kkurt [141]

In 1916, Wilson nominated Louis Brandeis, a staunch progressive who had fought in court against the exploitation of women and children workers, to the Supreme Court. He was the first Jewish justice on the Court. Following Brandeis's nomination, Wilson supported improved credit for farmers and workers' compensation for federal employees. He then pushed through a law to eliminate child labor, but the Supreme Court ruled it unconstitutional in 1918. When American railroad unions threatened to strike in 1916, Wilson supported and signed into law a bill securing an eight-hour workday for railroad employees—the Adamson Act, which paved the way to shortened workdays for all industrial workers.
