Correct answer: Creating the Environmental Protection Agency
Explanation/detail:
The formal recognition of China and Strategic Arms Limitations Talks (SALT) were <u>foreign</u> policy initiatives (not domestic).
As to interest rates, during the Nixon presidency, the Federal Reserve chairman, Arthur Burns, had begun raising interest rates. In 1971, President Nixon exerted pressure on Burns and "the Fed" to keep interest rates down, but that only led to a decade of high inflation that caused other economic problems. So that was not a success for Nixon.
<u>About the Environmental Protection Agency</u>
President Nixon signed an executive order establishing the Environmental Protection Agency in 1970. Subsequent committee hearings in the House of Representatives and the Senate ratified Nixon's order for the creation of the agency.
Environmental issues had been gaining much attention during the 1960s, and the need for oversight became clear. As Lily Rothman reported in a TIME magazine article:
- <em>An oil spill off the California coast in 1969 coated 400 square miles with slime and killed hundreds of birds. Scientists announced that auto exhaust was at high enough levels in some places that it could cause birth defects. The city of St. Louis smelled, as one resident put it, “like an old-fashioned drugstore on fire.”</em>

Nixon's administration felt it necessary to take action to address pollution problems in the American environment.
The reason that federal courts do not try these cases is because there are already special courts just for these types of cases.

Answer:
Student responses will vary. Students should mention both opportunities and challenges of farmers discussed in the lectures. Farmers were drawn to the availability of cheap land. The railroad also made it easier for farmers to transport needed supplies such as farming equipment, and it made it easier and faster for them to get their goods to market. With the rapid increase in the number of new settlements, there was plenty of business to be had. On the other hand, there were some drawbacks. First, the land was very dry, and many farmers, like one from Tennessee, had little experience working this type of soil. They were quick to adapt, however. They rerouted various water supplies and used dry farming techniques that proved successful. A second challenge facing everyone on the frontier, not just farmers, was the anger and hostility of some Native American tribes who threatened and raided settlements.
