Answer: rejection of labor unions, government regulation of business, and the protection of civil liberties.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the election of 1924, Republican Calvin Coolidge (winner) and Democrat John Davis, both supported limited government and a reduction of the power of trade unions so to enable business owners to have a stronger influence on the labor market.

These candidates both won more votes than the Progressive party which campaigned against what the Democrats and Republicans were advocating for, thereby proving that Americans preferred limited government and a reduction in the power of trade unions.
