The correct answer is A) Lodge believed Article 10 of the covenant infringed on the United States' power to declare war, if necessary, and expand its territories.

Republican Henry Cabot Lodge refused to ratify the League of Nations because Lodge believed Article 10 of the covenant infringed on the United States' power to declare war, if necessary, and expand its territories.

Henry Cabot was a Senator from Massachusetts. He completely opposed to the idea of the League of Nations that nations must repel aggression, considering it affected the power of the US Congress. He also was against immigration and participated in the creation of the Immigration Act of 1917.

The other options of the question were B) Lodge was offended that President Wilson had only selected one Republican to join his delegation to the Versailles Peace Conference. C) Lodge felt the League of Nations weakened the United States' global power and gave too many liberties to European nations. D) Lodge thought President Wilson's ideas about world order, as presented in his League of Nations draft agreement.
