HENRY CABOT LODGE SR.
Massachusetts senator sings his name, date, and location in black
ink
Signature: "Henry Cabot Lodge" in black ink. 4x2½. February
15, 1890. Washington, D.C. Lodge (1850-1924, born in Boston,
Massachusetts) represented Massachusetts in the US House (1887-1893) and
Senate (1893-1924). He was a vocal proponent of American
involvement in World War I following the sinking of the Lusitania
and, as Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, led the fight
against US membership in the League of Nations. Lodge, a Republican, was not
an isolationist like some League opponents. Instead, he argued that the US must
be free to pursue its own interests without needing the consent of an
international organization. (An additional motive was his ardent dislike of
President Wilson) A scholar as well as a politician, Lodge was Harvard's
first PhD in history. His grandson, Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr. (1902-1985), was
a US Senator, Ambassador to the United Nations and to South Vietnam and the
Republican Vice Presidential nominee in 1960. Toned. Slightly stained. Fine
condition.
