Answer:

The Massachusetts Bureau of Statistics of Labor was the pioneering and pace‑setting agency among the states. Its first annual report in 1870 des­cribed accidents to children working in textile mills, paper mills and other establishments. Throughout the 1870s and 1880s, primarily under the leader­ship of Carroll Wright who was appointed Commissioner of Labor Statistics in 1873, the bureau mailed questionnaires to employers and sent investigators out to observe conditions first‑hand. Working conditions varied widely and the annual reports presented a mixed picture. In 1871 the bureau found that ventilation in the Lowell Mills was poor because the windows had to be kept closed during the manufacture of certain types of fabric. In 1873, however, the bureau reported that improvements there in factory architecture, machinery, and ventilation had reduced the threats to the operatives’ health. The next year investigative agents went into most of the state's textile mills, checking machine guarding, ventilation, protection of shafting, fire escapes elevators, and amounts of air space per worker. They found shafting and machines guarded fairly well, though air space was not always adequate. Most of the mills were pronounced to be in good order.2

What was the effect of the Immigration Act of 1965?
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The national origins quota system ended.

Explanation:

Migration refers to the movement of a group of people from one geographical region (location) to another geographical destination in search of better living conditions, work or social amenities.

Population change equation states that the change in the size of a population over a specific period of time is equal to the sum of the number of births and the number of immigrants that joined.

Mathematically, the population change equation is given by the formula;

Population Change = (Natality - Mortality) + (Immigration - Emigration)

The Immigration Act and Naturalization of 1965 is also referred to as the Hart-Celler Act and it was enacted by the IS Congress to abolish the previous quota system based on national origins in the United States of America.

Hence, an effect of the Immigration Act of 1965 was that it ended the national origins quota system.

Why do you think the Catholic Church had more influence in Southern Europe
Fed [463]
The Catholic church had more influence because of the location of the Vatican it is in the south so the priest would travel mostly around the south to spread the word of God.
