LODGE TURNS DOWN CONVENTION POST CLEVELAND, June 9—Senior Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts, who for nearly a quarter of a century has occupied a high official position at Republican national conventions, today definitively declined to accept any post, either nationally or with the state delegation, at this year's convention. Lodge was offered the post as vice-chairman of the convention for Massachusetts. This position he flatly turned down. Lodge's refusal to accept offices climaxed a bitter fight that has been waged for months in the Massachusetts delegation and among Coolidge managers to oust him from any control in the convention. Two reasons chiefly were assigned for Lodge's rejection: 1—Desire of Coolidge managers to destroy the so-called "genate oligarchy," and 2—Lodge's votes against President Coolidge on the Bursum pension bill and the soldiers' bonus.
