Ratification in the US Senate Irreconcilables & Reservationists opposed treaty Wilson went on speaking tour to garner support
Treaty of Versailles
![Page 65: John M. Murrin, et al. Liberty, Equality, Power A History of the American People](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/568136c3550346895d9e5f7a/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Senate opinion on the treaty was divided into three distinct views:
Supporters. Democrats loyal to Wilson wanted the treaty to be ratified in its original form without any amendments or reservations; some within this group were receptive to a small number of minor changes.
Reservationists. This group claimed to be in favor of the treaty, but only after including a series of reservations prior to ratification. Senator Lodge of Massachusetts was the leader of this faction and was personally dedicated to frustrating the aims of his rival, Wilson. Other senators in this group sincerely favored the treaty, but wanted some modification to protect vital American interests. The Reservationists were the largest of the three factions.
Irreconcilables. Isolationist senators, including Robert M. La Follette of Wisconsin, William E. Borah of Idaho and Hiram Johnson of California, opposed the treaty and American entry into the League of Nations under any circumstances. They had counseled against entering the war in the first place and now opposed participation in European affairs.
