Q3)- D ....
"Amendments" were made to fair labor standards act... that means it already existed... so D stands out.....

Q4) - B .....
not very sure about the reasoning though, but "invisible hand" was debatable that made me choose B ..... (as i said, not sure.....)

In Q3 the given ans is D, but I was wondering if E could also be correct because "guaranteed wages for a greater no.of people" was a result of Fair labour Standards and not specifically New Frontier. Is it correct?

Thanks in advance!

Official Explanation

3. According to the passage, which of the following was NOT necessarily true of the New Frontier?

Difficulty Level: 700

Explanation

You may want to treat this Specific question as a checklist. The New Frontier amended the act; it did not create it.

(A): The 2nd paragraph states that the New Frontier included “authorizing mortgages for home rehabilitation.”

(B): The 2nd paragraph states that the New Frontier allowed the government to “take part in multinational trade negotiations.”

(C): The 2nd paragraph states that the New Frontier came about during “economically promising times.”

(E): The 2nd paragraph states that the New Frontier “increased both the minimum wage and the number of workers in the retail sector that were to be covered.”

Answer: D

Hope it helps

As per the passage, FLS Act did this not New Frontier Act

Following is the relevant text from the passage:
"Amendments to the Fair Labor Standards Act increased both the minimum wage and the number of workers in the retail sector that were to be covered."
