Wilson and the War

Question 13 • RMA FL-2100310-United States History Semester 1

President Wilson’s proposal to form the League of Nations was most weakened by

Answer
A
his illness while traveling to gain support.
B
his shortage of campaign funds.
C
his strong anti-German sentiment.
D
his disagreement with Henry Cabot Lodge.

Explanation

Wilson’s proposal depended on the Senate approving the Treaty of Versailles, which included the League of Nations. Henry Cabot Lodge led senators who opposed the treaty, especially over concerns that League membership could limit U.S. independence. Wilson refused to accept key changes, and his disagreement with Lodge helped prevent Senate approval.
