Just two days before Charles G. Dawes ceased being Vice-President of the United States and became again merely General Dawes, he received a request from President Horacio Vasquez of the Dominican Republic to head a mission of people from the U.S. to advise the Dominican Government on administrative matters particularly connected with the national finances. Mr. Dawes accepted and before the end of March had marshaled a commission of twelve and was on his way to the city of Santo Domingo. The commission presented a 200-page report to President Vasquez, and withdrew before the report could be translated into Spanish.
