Question

social security administration repatriation of mexican americans increase in home foreclosures decrease in international trade \bank holidays\ and regulation of financial industry protective tariffs se of the banking system tition for employment al distribution of wealth and lack ages

Explanation:

To solve this matching problem, we analyze each item:

1. Protective tariffs

Protective tariffs are taxes on imported goods to protect domestic industries. They make international trade more expensive, so they lead to a Decrease in international trade.

2. Ease of the banking system

“Bank Holidays” and regulation of the financial industry were measures (like during the Great Depression) to stabilize banks. So this corresponds to the use of the banking system (the “Bank Holidays” and regulation are actions related to the banking system). Wait, re - examining: The “Bank Holidays” and regulation of financial industry is a measure to fix the banking system, so for “ease of the banking system” (maybe a typo, like “crisis of the banking system”), the response is “Bank Holidays” and regulation of financial industry. But let's re - align:

• Protective tariffs → Decrease in international trade (tariffs reduce imports/exports, so trade decreases).
• Crisis of the banking system → “Bank Holidays” and regulation of financial industry (these were responses to banking crises, like in the Great Depression).
• Competition for employment → Repatriation of Mexican Americans (during hard times, there was competition for jobs, and some groups were repatriated to free up jobs).
• Unequal distribution of wealth and lack of savings → Increase in home foreclosures (people couldn't pay mortgages due to wealth inequality and lack of savings, leading to foreclosures).
• Social Security Administration → (relates to social welfare, maybe not in the above, but the given options:

Let's list the matches properly:

• Protective tariffs: Decrease in international trade (tariffs make imports costlier, so trade falls).
• Crisis of the banking system: “Bank Holidays” and regulation of financial industry (to stabilize banks).
• Competition for employment: Repatriation of Mexican Americans (to reduce job competition).
• Unequal distribution of wealth and lack of savings: Increase in home foreclosures (people can't pay mortgages).

Final Matches:

• Protective tariffs: Decrease in international trade
• Crisis of the banking system: “Bank Holidays” and regulation of financial industry
• Competition for employment: Repatriation of Mexican Americans
• Unequal distribution of wealth and lack of savings: Increase in home foreclosures

(Note: If “ease of the banking system” was a typo for “crisis of the banking system”, the match is as above. Adjust based on the exact wording, but the key is the causal relationships between the economic/social factors and the responses.)
