BY WORKING
in CONCERT
The Allies Won the War; BY League
of Nations Peace May Be Kept
Says C. c. Dawes.

Charles G. Dawes, Controller o
the Currency under President McKin
ley, and recently brigadier genera
under Gen. Pershing, who returned
to the United States a month ago af
ter two years service in France, ha.
issued a statement urging the apop.
ton of the League of Nations Al
though a Republican, Mr.. Dawes
comes back from Europe to find him
self in disagreement with some of his
party's leaders in Congress.
The quick and decisive results OBJ
tanned by the Allies after the uniica-
ton of the military command and the
pooling of their material resources,
Mr.. Dawes says, represented the val
ne of combination in the task of win
ming the war. This was sort of
League of Nations without which the
conflict could not have been ended as
it was. The same joint action of the
nations, Mr.. Dawes believes, will be
effectual in preventing war.
Each of the Allies made conces-
sions of authority, contributed from
its food, materials, and ammunition
2 TO the common cause. This collab-
grafton and combination, Mr.. Dawes
points out, was in way of sacrifice
by the Allies of individual national
initiative and control with the object
of saving themselves from a defeat
that would have deprived them by
force of vastly more than they gave
voluntarily to preserve. their respec-
tive sovereignties.
The military board which govern
ed the supplies of the Allied armies
was in effect by League of Nations.
says Mr.. Dawes.
"As in the case of the League of
Nations, it could do nothing vital
without unanimous consent, and as
with the League of Nations, the Bit
ter opponents Of its creation pre-
dicted that it would not be effective
or useful" Mr.. Dawes says.
what happened in creating this
board is exactly what is happening
in the effort to create the League Of
Nations" he continues.
The proposition for the cession
Of the independent sovereignties Of
the armies and the governments, fort
flied though it was by a tremendous
military necessity, was rejected as
has been the case with the League
of Nations.
'.But because of the necessity for
finding some remedy for the deplora-
BILE lack of coordination of inter-ar-
my action on the rear, without inter
fering from first to last with the in
sovereignty power of each
army over its rear, the board was es-
tablished to control them which, like
