PLEASE ANSWER!!! I NEED THESE ALL DONE

(1)Question refers to the excerpt below.

"The application of the Order … is quite plain and simple in cases where women are employed to replace men on jobs which are not changed. Where the plant management, in order to meet the necessity of replacing men by women, has rearranged or lightened the job … a study of job content and job evaluation should afford the basis for setting 'proportionate rates for proportionate work.' Such questions require a reasonable determination, by collective bargaining or arbitration, of the question whether, or how far, the newly arranged job is of equal quantity and quality with the old job … Whether a job is performed by men or women, there may be a dispute over correctness of its wage rate in relation to rates for other jobs in the same plant."—From the National War Labor Board Press Release, No. B 693, June 4, 1943, in "Chapter 24: Equal Pay for Women," The Termination Report of the National War Labor Board: Industrial Disputes and Wage Stabilization in Wartime, January 12, 1942–December 31, 1945, vol. I, 290–291

Question refers to the excerpt below.

"And whereas great Quantities of the like Manufactures have of late been made and are daily increasing in the Kingdom of Ireland and in the English Plantations in America and are exported from thence to Forreigne Marketts heretofore supplyed from England which will inevitably sink the Value of Lands and tend to the ruine of the Trade and the Woollen Manufactures of this Realme … Be it enacted by the Kings most Excellent Majesty by and with the Advice and Consent of the Lords Spirituall and Temporall and Commons in this present Parliament assembled and by the Authority of the same:

That no Person or Persons … shall directly or indirectly export … out of or from the said Kingdom of Ireland into any Forreigne Realme States or Dominions … other than the Parts within the Kingdom of England."—Wool Act, 1699

Answer:

ight, ill do it i guess.

(1) The excerpt provided in the question is an example of the Effects of mass mobilization for World War II. It discusses the application of an Order by the National War Labor Board during the wartime period, which addresses the issue of women replacing men in jobs and the need for job evaluation and determination of wage rates. This reflects the impact of World War II on the labor market and workforce dynamics, as women were increasingly employed to fill roles left vacant by men who were serving in the war.

(2) The Parliament of England's enactment of acts such as the Wool Act, as described in the excerpt provided, signifies an act of control and increasing taxation to the colonists. The Wool Act was enacted to restrict the export of woollen goods from Ireland and the English plantations in America to foreign markets, which were previously supplied by England. This restriction aimed to protect British trade interests and maintain England's dominance in the wool trade, indicating an act of control and economic regulation over the colonies, rather than economic equality or endorsement of superiority of Irish products.

The correct answer is B. An act of control and increasing taxation.
