Answer:

Explanation:

The Elkins Act (1903) is a federal law of The United States that amended the Interstate Commerce Act of 1887. The Act <em>targeted rebates offered to certain companies for shipping their products while farmers and small businesses paid full price for shipping their goods</em>. The Elkins Act made unlawful railroad rebates or discounts. This needed everyone to pay the same rate to use the rail lines to reduce transportation cost inequalities and unbalanced care. <em>The high prices put smaller companies and farmers out of business while larger firms delivered cheaper.</em>

True to some extent
 the act killed the act of giving rebates to specific companies and those who received or gave rebates were subject to heavy fines which implied that this act was curtailed meaning that competition was encouraged.

MrMuchimi

Answer:

The different leaders at the Paris Peace Conference after the first World War each had different goals based on how their countries fared in the war and their ideas for the future.

President Woodrow Wilson of the United States ⇒  lasting peace and justice

President Wilson wanted lasting peace and justice after the war which led him to propose his famous ''14 points''.

Prime Minister Orlando of Italy ⇒  territories promised earlier to his country.

Italy had already been on the side of Germany and Austria-Hungary but were tempted to the allied side by promises of land and so the Prime minister wanted that land.

Prime Minister David Lloyd George of Britain ⇒ punishment for Germany

The British did not suffer much territorial devastation during the war but did lose a lot of men. Prime minister George therefore wanted Germany punished for this.

Prime Minister Clemenceau of France ⇒ money to rebuild his country

Prime minister Clemenceau wanted to punish Germany as well but his immediate concern was to source money to rebuild France which had been devastated the most in the war as the entirety of it in the west had been fought on French soil.
