Answer 1

You can directly with an applescript script by simulating keystroke on ("N" and command and shift) this will create a new folder on the desktop or in the open Finder window.

Below the script, you can test it in the script editor

tell application "System Events" to tell process "Finder"
    set frontmost to true
    keystroke "N" using {command down, shift down}
end tell

Your script works if you add under "tell process" Finder " "set frontmost to true" Which give

tell application "System Events"
    tell process "Finder"
        set frontmost to true
                tell menu bar 1
            tell menu bar item "File"
                tell menu "File"
                    click menu item "New folder"
                end tell
            end tell
        end tell
    end tell
end tell
