Return to Normalcy was Warren Harding’s slogan for the election of 1920. At that time, World War I had just ended and so Harding sought to reduce America’s involvement on foreign matters. The U. S lent funds to European nations during the war, and these governments were clamoring for a reduction of debts. At Harding’s urging, the Congress thereafter passed a bill where debt-ridden countries can pay off war debt for many years at low interest. Therefore, the closest and correct answer would be choice 3.
