F) A 1908 agreement between the United States and Japan confirming principles of free oceanic commerce and recognizing Japan's authority over Manchuria.

L) Name given to thousands of volunteers enlisted by the Committee on Public Information to deliver short prowar speeches at movie theaters,as part of an effort to galvanize public support for the war.Their work,as part of the broader objectives of the CPI,helped create a political climate intolerant of dissent.
M) Wartime law that prohibited any words or behavior that might promote resistance to the United States or help in the cause of its enemies.
N) The migration of over 400,000 African Americans from the rural South to the industrial cities of the North during and after World War I.

Q) The international organization bringing together world governments to prevent future hostilities,proposed by President Woodrow Wilson in the aftermath of World War I.Although this international organization did form,the United States never became a member state.
R) The 1919 treaty that ended World War I.The agreement redrew the map of the world,assigned Germany sole responsibility for the war,and saddled it with a debt of $33 billion in war damages.Its long-term impact around the globe-including the creation of British and French imperial "mandates"-was catastrophic.
