Answer:

They were worried about overrepresentation.

Explanation:

The North and the South were both anxious about adding new states on either side in worry that this would disrupt the equal balance of Northern and Southern Senators. Somewhat of a modern example would be the Republican worry of D.C. statehood overrepresenting Democrats.

PLEASE HELP Why were Robeson & DuBois targeted during the Red Scare?
velikii [3]

Answer:

The Red Scare was hysteria over the perceived threat posed by Communists in the U.S. during the Cold War between the Soviet Union and the United States, which intensified in the late 1940s and early 1950s. (Communists were often referred to as “Reds” for their allegiance to the red Soviet flag.) The Red Scare led to a range of actions that had a profound and enduring effect on U.S. government and society. Federal employees were analyzed to determine whether they were sufficiently loyal to the government, and the House Un-American Activities Committee, as well as U.S. Senator Joseph R. McCarthy, investigated allegations of subversive elements in the government and the Hollywood film industry. The climate of fear and repression linked to the Red Scare finally began to ease by the late 1950s.

Why did the Soviet Union join the Allies?
Ray Of Light [21]
<span>The Soviet Union joined the Allied Forces because Germany attacked them.

The U.S - Soviet Alliance of 1941-1945 was created because it is essential in securing the defeat of Nazi Germany.

Though Allied Forces regard the Soviet Union as their enemies, President Franklin Roosevelt recognizes Germany as a greater threat. The Allies tried to form an alliance with the Soviet Union but was faced with demands and conditions that they did not agree to. Soviet Union finally agreed to join forces with the Allies when Nazi Germans launched an invasion to the Soviet Union on June 1941</span>
