The correct option is C
The Great Depression caused the collapse of a large part of the American economy, with the consequent impoverishment of the population; however, President Hoover's general reaction was to try to avoid financial panic and consider the Great Depression a passing crisis. He tried to combat the Great Depression by promoting voluntary work, developing large public works such as the Hoover Dam, promoting protectionist measures such as the Smoot-Hawley tariff law, increasing the maximum of the income tax from 25% to 63% or increasing the tax on the corporate income.
