During the first year of his presidency, Herbert Hoover did not accomplish the following achievements:
- **Hoover targeted organized crime, leading to the arrest of Al Capone.** This event was more associated with the work of law enforcement agencies and was not a direct achievement of Hoover's presidency in its first year.
- **Hoover established programs that supported the funding of arts and literature.** While there were some initiatives for relief and recovery, systematic programs directly supporting arts and literature did not emerge prominently during his first year.
- **Hoover funded direct relief programs that created jobs for the unemployed.** Hoover's first response to the Great Depression focused more on voluntary initiatives and indirect relief rather than direct federal funding or employment programs.
- **Hoover regulated the business practices that had caused the depression.** Hoover's approach to regulation was limited and often focused on voluntary cooperation rather than imposing strict regulations.
The most accurate option regarding Hoover's actions in his first year involves a mix of limited regulation efforts and voluntary cooperation but does not focus on significant direct funding or job creation initiatives. Overall, none of these statements accurately reflect major accomplishments in that specific timeframe.
