DEPUTIES
ACCORD CONFIDENCE
VOTE TO PA|NLEVE

Paris. April 81 (By A. P)-The
chamber of deputies tonight gave
Premier Painleve and his government
a vote of confidence 3O4 to 21S. The
vote came after nine hours Of bitter
personal debate, in which Joseph
CaillauX. the new finance minister
was the central point of attack. Call
laux, restored to power from prison
and exile, was considered by the op-
psltion as the most vulnerable spot
in the armor of what has been de-
slgnated the Painleve BRAND Call
laux cabinet: but, staging the most
impressive comeback in the history
of the French political world, he wea-
thered the fierce storm in the cham
Der.
The ministerial declaration, the
context of which was virtually
known previous to NJ. Painleve's pre-
sentation of it before the house, was
ia matter of secondary importance
both for those within the chamber
and the thousands surrounding the
Palais Bourbon, who haa gone to see
CaillauX.
The government in it's declaration
appealed Tor national concord and
emphasized the need of real security
for France. The ultimate imposition
of drastic financial measures was
foreshadowed in the statement that
when we have succeeded finally and
definitely in balancing the budget
we will be obliged to ask big sacri-
fees of the nation"
