BANK WAR Battle between President Andrew Jackson and congressional supporters of the Bank of the United States over the bank's renewal. Jackson vetoed the bank bill, arguing that the bank favored moneyed interests at the expense of western farmers. COMPROMISE TARIFF OF 1833 Passed as a measure to resolve the Nullification Crisis, it provided that tariffs be lowered gradually, over a period of ten years, to 1816 levels. PANIC OF 1837 Economic crisis triggered by bank failures, elevated grain prices, and Andrew Jackson's efforts to curb overspeculation on western lands and transportation improvements. In response, President Martin Van Buren proposed the "Divorce Bill," which pulled treasury funds out of the banking system altogether, contracting the credit supply. SAM HOUSTON

Samantha Greenblatt January 30th, 2014 US6 Causes of the Great Depression Stock Market Crash: Documents C, D, F The stock market crash was one of the causes of the Great Depression because at the time almost every citizen had invested in the stock market. When it crashed more than 40 billion dollars were lost. Many Americans believed they could get rich by investing in stocks so that is what they did. Because people?s life savings were put in the stocks, they lost all of their money. They had no money to spend, which meant businesses had no income. With no money there was no consumption, which caused businesses to fail and inevitably caused the Great Depression. Margin and installment Buying: Documents G, H
