Today in AP

Today in AP we learned a little about Woodrow Wilson. We learned that he was a progressive president. Wilson lowered tariffs and felt that graduated income tax was good. He restructured the banking and currency system under the Federal Reserve Act. He expanded the nation’s anti-trust authority and established the Federal Trade Commission.
When we were finished with this we looked pictures that were of the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire. These pictures were very detailed and they were some what graphic. They showed that women had jumped out of the windows and some that had been burnt. The pictures also showed that some women were being identified and that some were never known.
We also got a test on chapter twenty- one. This test is about thirty- five questions.
