b. displaced farmers.
c. religious rural white protestants.
d. the U. S. government.

By the 1920s, urbanization, or the expansion of cities, had increased. New York,
Chicago, and Philadelphia had become heavily populated cities. In turn, urban values
began to dominate the nation.
Life in big cities was different from life in small towns. Cities were densely populated,
and people with different backgrounds came into contact with one another. City dwellers
were open to new ideas in art, science, and politics. They were also more tolerant to
drinking and gambling.
One clash between small-town and city values led to an era known as Prohibition.
Prohibition was the ban on alcoholic beverages set forth in the Eighteenth Amendment,
which took effect in 1920. Most support for prohibition came from religious rural white
Protestants.
