<em>The Hepburn Act is a 1906 United States federal law that gave the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) the power to set maximum railroad rates and extended its jurisdiction. This led to the discontinuation of free passes to loyal shippers.[1] In addition, the ICC could view the railroads' financial records, a task simplified by standardized bookkeeping systems. For any railroad that resisted, the ICC's conditions would remain in effect until the outcome of legislation said otherwise</em>

Choice C and D actually would lead to more wars because Germany was bitter about being forced to accept the defeat. They further had to pay for the reparations, which wouldn't make anyone happy.
