The correct option is A

Herbert Clark Hoover was an American engineer, businessman and politician who served as the thirty-first president of the United States from 1929 to 1933, and whose mandate was marked by the disastrous crisis of the 29th.

Its popularity caused that the Republican Party postulated it like candidate to the presidential elections of 1928, where it won to the candidate of the Democratic Party, Alfred E. Smith. Much of Hoover's success was due to his open support for Prohibition and his commitment to sustaining the interests of white and Protestant voters, in contrast to Smith, of Irish descent, a practicing Catholic, and an opponent of Prohibition. The Hoover administration began in a climate of prosperity inherited from the 1920s by its predecessors, but it was soon marked by the onset of the Great Depression, which erupted after the Black Thursday of October 24, 1929.

The answer is actually A.) His support of union rights, because he was able to convince unions to hold off demands during the Great Depression!
