...hope to remain aloof from the world in any capacity, political or economic. Faced with recognition of this fact and its logical conclusion: the League of Nations, America let herself be led away from reality by the Republican party and by Henry Cabot Lodge, now presumably in the bosom of the God with whom his family conversed to the exclusion of even the Lowells, to whom it only listened.
