I believe the answer is: reduced tariffs on all imported goods

The purpose of the reduced tariff for imported goods is to establish a good economic relation with other nation in hope that they reciprocated and created similar tariff reduction for united states' products. Wilson did this after observing that american products were in a really high demand after the world war I.

The Revenue act that was passed in year 1913 and which is also known as Underwood-Simmons Tariff Act did reestablishing work of the federal income tax in United States and this act reduced tariff rates. This act was signed into law by President Woodrow Wilson.
