How did the US promote the growth of American Industry?
By imposing a tariff (a tax) on imported goods. This was to make imported items more expensive than domestically produced ones. A high tariff was popular in the north, as protecting American jobs and making northern manufacturers wealthy. It was bitterly resented in the south. The south traded a lot with Europe, particularly France and England. Cotton was shipped directly from plantation docks to brokers in Europe, who sold the cotton on behalf of the planters, and then used the money to fill orders for goods, then shipped the goods back to the south. A high tariff made these items more expensive. The quality of European goods was often superior to the American equivalent, and they were often cheaper, before the tariff was added. There were no good trade routes between the north and the south of the US. Before the Civil War most of the revenue the US government received came from southern payments of the tariff. Resentment over a new higher tariff provoked the Nullification Crisis during Andrew Jackson's first term.

The Underwood Tariff, signed on October 3, 1913, provided substantial rate reductions on imported raw materials and foodstuffs, cotton and woolen goods, iron and steel; it removed the duties from more than a hundred other items. Although the act retained many protective features, it was a genuine attempt to lower the cost of living. To compensate for lost revenues, it established a modest income tax.
