Answer:
a. Newspaper printing an article about the pacifists
Explanation:
The Espionage Act (June 15, 1917) was a federal law enacted during World War I that suppressed free expression in order to prohibit US citizens from disclosing any information related to the war.
The law penalized disloyalty and any act that promoted the success of the country's enemies or interfered with the war effort, military operations or recruitment, and it prohibited publishing false reports, delivering information relating to national defense and the mailing of newspapers and magazines.
Therefore, back then, a newspaper printing an article about the pacifists was an example of a violation under the Espionage Act.
