By the Associated Press PARIS, November 21.—The Cham- ber of Deputies upon Premier Pain leve's threatening to restgn if the discussion on the government's finan. clal bill were not hastened, decided today to hold a session at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, and then adjourn- ed. The chamber has voted only two articles of the government measure ce last night, although sitting until ock this morning and resuming at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. In making his appeal, M. Painleve sald: “I address a supreme appeal to vour patriotism, your endurance, to finish this debate. If my uppeal is not responded to it will be impos- sible for me to conserve longer the responsibility of the government.” Former Premier Herriot, leader of the Radical Socfalists, seconded M. Painleve, assuring him that the cham- ber had always responded to an ap- peal to its patriotism. M. Painleve then fixed 9 o'clock tomorrow morn. ing for the session, and this was ac without opposition. After a skirmish in which M.
