1 HISTORY OF CHICAGO FINAL EXAM | QUESTIONS & ANSWERS (VERIFIED) | LATEST UPDATE | GRADED A+ What was the appeal of isolationism in Chicago in World War I? Correct Answer: an ethnic alignment in the city and many immigrants that did not want to fight against their relatives from Europe. Each ethnic group had reasons to oppose Allies or support the Central Power. Why did the debate over the war cause friction for the city of Chicago? Correct Answer: Many in Chicago saw the war was an American tradition while others found it extremely unethical. Why were some of the cities ethnic groups either sympathetic to the Central Power or hostile to the Allies? Correct Answer: Irish, Germans, Austrians and Jews from Russia (Central Power) were against helping out the Allies due to the past mistreatment each group had experienced from those apart of the Allies. Polish, Czechs and Serbs plus many Yankees were pro -war. Why did Mayor Big Bill Thompson oppose the war? What impact did he have on Chicago? 2 Correct Answer: because he wanted to call for economic neutrality, which meant either trading equally on both sides or not trade with either of them at all. He would host neutrality conferences and rallies. He also was a believer in that this was not a war for Chicago ans to worry about and was truly the "federal government's war". The impact he has on Chicago during this time was that he saw a political advantage during the war. He maintains his stance of neutrality with the thought that it was too late to move away from isolationism for him. He denounces the draft and allows for pacifist meetings to occur which leads to his reelection in 1919. How did the nation and its government try to enforce loyalty to the war after the US joined the conflict? Correct Answer: CPI (Creel Committee) did what they could to convince the American people to support the war through making posters to almost guilt trip citizens to want to support and fight the war, Uncle Sam was a big player in this game to get more pro -war supporte rs. The national also implements Liberty Loans which meant that they allowed countries to borrow money for war equipment. The draft registration sweep also played a role in enforcing loyalty as many were drafted the minute they turned eighteen. What was the Great Migration? What forces helped push it forward during World War I? Correct Answer: The Great Migration was the black exodus to the North to Chicago through the IL Central railroad since problems in the south such as segregation, poor treatment, and poorly paid jobs pushed many blacks to the north.
