AN W‘W\i By the Associated Press. PARIS, March 16.—Raymond Plin-] care, premier, guided his “Armistice day cabinet” across another parliamentary shoal this morning and, as dawn broke, was voted confidence in the Chamber of Deputies, 308 to 262. On a second motion, taken at the end of an all-night session in which the | war ministry of Paul Painleve had been attacked, the government majority rose to 68, the vote being 314 and 246. Premier Poincare and M. Painleve both took the floor to answer interpel- lations and participate in the debate in order to survive the sniping of radical Deputies. who charged negligence in caring for the health of French soldiers in_the occupied Rhineland area. It was the second attack the cabinet had weathered in two days, other votes of confidence having been given Thurs- day, 323 to 254 and 321 to 249, on ques- tions involving return of religious con- gregations to France. Influenza Deaths Cited. Socialists and radicals made what they called the great misery and intense distress of the French Rhineland occu- pation troops the basis of their attack. They presented figures to show that 272 French soldiers on the Rhine died dur- ing February from grippe and influenza. M. Painleve countered this with fig- ures to show that the ratio of 272 deaths to 45,000 soldiers was less than that caused by the influenza epidemic in Paris and elsewhere in Europe during the same period. The government critics claimed the army chief had failed in displaying initiative necessary to break regulations and meet exceptional conditions, and they cited many pitiful and absurd ap- plications of the rules. | totally unexpected and to have taken By the Associated Press NEW YORK, March 16.—George W. resignation under advisement and been called to mert again next Fri when it is expected, some action will b: taken. ! ‘The resignation was said to have been several of the directors by surprise.
