DEPUTIES DON'T
LIKE FINANCE REPORT

PARIS, March 14.--An analysis Of
the vote which closed yesterdays H.
nancial debate in the chamber of depu-
ties shows hat LAG deputies abstained
from voting, which is interpreted as
marking the dissatisfaction Of a large
section of the house at the indefinite
ness of finance Minister Klotz's state
ment. The report was current late
last night that NJ. Klotz, in consequence
Of what he felt amounted to a vote Of
censure, intended to resign.
The report, however, appears to be
unfounded, for it Is pointed out in po-
litical circles that the finance minister
was embarrassed by the fact that he
was acting in the double capacity of
cabinet minister and peace conference
delegate and consequently felt obliged
TO coufine himself to generalities on
many points regarding which the cham
Der desired specific information, such
points being still under consideration
by the peace conference.
