The four factors that caused New England manufacturers to start spinning mills were:

B. available cotton
C. the first modern depression of 1819
E. the Embargo
F. Clay's "American System"
available labor
G. the first tariff

I guess
B, D, F, and G

Answer 1

Oops, I meant to put a letter in front of "available labor." My choice was available cotton, the Embargo, available labor, and the first tariff.

Answer 2

I'm not sure about the embargo. That was earlier, if the Embargo Act of 1807 is what is meant. The others, I agree were factors.

Answer 3

So Clay's "American System"?
