Question

one reason congress did not ratify the treaty of versailles was because the treaty
(1) formed the big four
(2) punished Germany too severely
(3) reduced Europe's armies and navies
(4) conflicted with the Congress's power to declare war

(4) is the best answer. Congress was concerned that, if they were bound by treaty, the League of Nations could declare war(s) involving the US without congress' approval. (3) is worthy of a consideration, but I don't think it is the best answer.
