Question 9
The Immigration Act of 1924 established a national quota system based on the 1890 census to limit immigration, especially from Southern and Eastern Europe. Option A is incorrect as it's not a "first come, first served" system. Option C (lottery) and D (new federal department) don't match the act's provisions.
The Kellogg - Briand Pact aimed to outlaw war but had no enforcement mechanism and no provision for using force against violators. So both B (no enforcement way) and C (no force provision) are reasons for its lack of success, making D correct. A is wrong as many nations signed it.
The 18th Amendment established Prohibition, which was the goal of the temperance movement (to limit/ban alcohol). Segregation (A), workers' movement (B), and women's suffrage (C, about voting rights) are not related to Prohibition.
