Answer:

D) laws to curb the consumption of alcohol

Step-by-step explanation:

The Woman's Christian Union (WCTU) was founded in Cleveland, Ohio in November of 1874 with a vision to combat the influence of alcohol on families and society. This because the rate of consumption of alcohol was increasing which causes some irrationally influenced behavior on the consumer. Thus unexpected or irrational behaviors was increasing.
