1917. A collection of Lodge's speeches delivered before the Senate
and other audiences during the two-year period between 1915-1917. A
conservative Republican Representative and Senator from
Massachusetts, Lodge formed a close alliance with Theodore
Roosevelt. Despite his reputation as a conservative Lodge was by no
means isolationist. In favor of war with Spain, Lodge also favored
the acquisition of the Philippines. Suspicious and contemptuous of
Wilson's peace policies, Lodge welcomed U.S. involvement in the
First World War, while remaining (as chairman of the Senate
Committee on Foreign Relations) highly critical of Wilson's
prosecution of the war. Contents: Mexico; Force and Peace; France;
Address at the Unveiling of the Soldiers' Monument; American
Rights; National Defense; Armed Merchantmen; Washington's Policies
of Neutrality and National Defense; Address at the Opening and
Dedication of the New Buildings of the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology; Address at the Unveiling of the Lafayette Statue; The
Policies of the Present Administration; Speech Before the Harvard
Republican Club; The Peace Not of the President; Address at the
Celebration of the One Hundredth Anniversary of St. John's Church;
The President's Plan for a World Peace; On the Severance of
Diplomatic Relations with Germany; The Failure of the Executive to
Vindicate American Rights; and War with Germany. See other titles
