Answer 1

C) grew less willing to increase federal spending.

Step-by-step explanation:

Herbert Hoover became president of the United States in 1929 when the economy was at its peak but in October when the stock market crashed, his worth was truly acknowledged. A meeting was arranged with a private businessman to ensure the wages and employment of people intact. He called for tax reduction and measures were adopted to increase employment in the public and private sector.
