Answer 1

Answer: (B), (C), (D)

Crime rate increased due to unemployment.

The organised workers managed to survive the Great Depression to an extent. Agricultural prices declined which affected the peasants badly. Their income levels deteriorated. The working class population in Germany was affected the most during the Great Depression. The local employment exchange centres in Germany found themselves queued up in huge crowds. It compelled people to commit crimes.
