Answer 1

OB. He created the Rural Free Delivery bill that delivered mail directly to farms instead of post offices 30 miles away.

Step-by-step explanation:

Thomas E. Watson was a Georgia politician who supported the egalitarian, agrarian agenda for mostly whites. He also supported white supremacy and would become a noted politician and a representative in the Assembly, Senate, and the House of Representatives.

The greatest achievement of Thomas Watson was his Rural Free Delivery Bill. This service makes it easier for farmers and those residing in the rural areas to get their mail delivered at their doorsteps. Prior to this, the farmers have to go long distances to get their mails from the post office. And with this new Bill, life was made easier for them, garnering a huge support base for Watson from the farmers.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
