Answer
(II) contradicts (I)
Explanation — Statement (I) is true because the League of Nations was established in 1920 with the aim of preserving world peace and preventing future wars.
Statement (II) is also true because the League failed to check the rise of dictatorships in Italy and Germany.
However, this failure went against the very purpose for which the League had been established.
Therefore, Statement (II) contradicts Statement (I).
