What happened on Monday October 27, 1913?

Here's what happened on October 27, 1913:

• U.S. Revenue Act of 1913 President Woodrow Wilson signed the Revenue Act (Underwood–Simmons Tariff Act), a landmark legislation that significantly reformed the U.S. tax system. The act dropped or reduced numerous existing tariffs and introduced the first federal income tax, which was made possible by the recently ratified Sixteenth Amendment. This tax reform was a crucial step in modernizing the United States' economic policy and establishing a more progressive taxation system.
• Kuwait-British Treaty of 1913 Emir Mubarak Al-Sabah of Kuwait signed a pivotal treaty with the United Kingdom, establishing a strategic protectorate relationship. The treaty included a forward-looking provision that if oil were discovered in Kuwait, the British would help protect the emirate's interests. This agreement would prove prophetic, as Kuwait would later become a significant oil-producing nation.
• Wilson's Anti-Imperialist Mobile Speech In a significant foreign policy address at the Southern Commercial Congress in Mobile, Alabama, President Woodrow Wilson articulated a principled stance against territorial expansion through military conquest. He publicly committed the United States to a more diplomatic and non-interventionist approach to international relations, marking a notable shift in American foreign policy rhetoric.
