    The correct option is d. It demonstrated a repudiation of Wilson's free-trade ideas.

    Explanation:

    In 1922, the U. S Senate established the Fordney-McCumber Tariff which set higher rates on imported goods to protect American manufacturers. This legisation opposed Wilson's ideas of free trade since it made it difficult for European traders to compete with the domestic ones.
