Answer:

In addition, many factory owners supported prohibition in their desire to prevent accidents and increase the efficiency of their workers in an era of increased industrial production and extended working hours.

Explanation: The 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution–which banned the manufacture, transportation and sale of intoxicating liquors–ushered in a period in American history known as Prohibition. Prohibition was ratified by the states on January 16, 1919 and officially went into effect on January 17, 1920, with the passage of the Volstead Act.

What was life like for the opposition to Anastasio Somoza in Nicaragua in the 1970s? What kind of government was this?
notka56 [123]

Answer:

He stepped down from office in 1972 but with the devastation caused by the 1972 earthquake, Somoza put himself back in power. He was reelected in 1974 after repealing the constitutional ban on consecutive terms and prohibiting all but the two major parties from participating in elections. Most of his second term was conducted under martial law, in response to active opposition to his strong-arm tactics by the Cuban-backed Sandinistas. Somoza’s administration continued to achieve improvements in agrarian reform, peasant welfare, economic progress, and foreign relations, but its failure to resolve the problems of unequal distribution of income and the rebuilding of Managua, which was still a shambles five years after the 1972 earthquake, caused growing unrest. In 1979 Somoza fled before Sandinista forces and went first to Miami, then The Bahamas, and finally Paraguay, where he was assassinated in exile in September 1980.

I hope this helps :) all you have do to is use your own words for this so it should not be that hard!
