The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options included, we can say the following.

According to Howard Zinn, US President Franklin D. Roosevelt was a much more sensitive president regarding people´s concerns and necessities. He was not like Herbert Hoover that just sent troops to control protests. Roosevelt did nos suppressed protests or strikes because when he became the US President, all the country was in conflict. Instead, Roosevelt understood the situation and the problems the economic crisis had the citizens were living, to create the "New Deal," a series of economic programs designed to help the poor Americans that were suffering from the Great Depression.
