  U.S. Senate: Art & History Home > Charles G. Dawes, 30th Vice President (1925-1929)
Dawes became a highly decorated military officer during the First World War, was the president of a prestigious financial institution, was the first director of the Bureau of the Budget, and devised the "Dawes Plan" to salvage Europe's postwar economy, for which he received the Nobel Peace Prize.
Dawes similarly bristled over the social requirements of the vice-presidency, and as one Washington hostess recorded, "his social tactics, no less than his insubordination to the Senate, brought down blame upon him in Washington." Although he frequently dined out and entertained generously, it was always on his own terms.
Dawes, whose early career was shaken by the panic of 1893, was now confronted by an even greater financial crisis, one that shook his natural self-confidence and ended whatever remaining political chances he might have had.

The Dawes plan was prepared in 1924 by a committee of the Allied Reparations Commission as a way of stabilizing the Germany economy and systematizing the repayment of Germany's World War I reparations to the Allied countries.
The deterioration of the German economy concerned the United States both because of its general impact and because Americans were intent on recovering nearly $10 billion loaned to Allied countries during and immediately after World War I. These nations in turn needed the reparations to fund their debt payments to the United States.
The Dawes Committee, created to resolve the problem, had two representatives each from Belgium, France, Italy, and Great Britain as well as two Americans, Owen D. Young and the chairman, Charles G. Dawes.
