Concept note-1: -He managed to return to Washington, but suffered a near-fatal stroke on October 2. He recovered and continued to advocate passage of the covenant, but the stroke and Republican Warren Harding’s election to the presidency in 1921 effectively ended his campaign.
Concept note-2: -Wilson chose to ignore Lodge. He offended the Senate by refusing to include senators among the negotiators accompanying him to the Paris Peace Conference and by making conference results public before discussing them with committee members.
Concept note-3: -The Senate has, at times, rejected treaties when its members felt their concerns were not adequately addressed. In 1919 the Senate rejected the Treaty of Versailles, which formally ended World War I, in part because President Woodrow Wilson had failed to take senators’ objections to the agreement into consideration.
Concept note-4: -President Wilson hand-delivered the treaty to the Senate on July 10, 1919, and then addressed the chamber. The treaty was referred to the Foreign Relations Committee, which held public hearings from July 31 to September 12, 1919.
