CONFIDENCE VOTED INBRIAND MINISTR Chamber of Deputies Support Cabinet by Poll of 324 to 136. Ev the Associated Press. PARIS, July 31.—The Chamber of Deputies today gave a vote of confl- dence to the newly created cabinet of Premier Aristide Briand, the vote being 324 to 136. By the vote, the old Poincare cabi- net, with Briand as the new head, re- ceived a mandate to continue its work. ‘There were nearly 140 members non- voting, some of them absent, but almost all of them abstaining by order of the radical group. Nevertheless Premier Briand obtained a majority of the whole chamber of nearly 50, which of late had been the average margin in favor of the Poincare government. The French delegation, accordingly, will go to the coming Hague conference on reparations with the same support as former Premier Poincare would have had if he had remained at the head of the government. ‘The ¢abinet met this morning and unanimously approved M. Briand's dec- laration of policy, which he was to read Jater in the Chamber. A “three-month truce” in internal politics was sought in the traditional ministerial declaration to Parliament asking a vote of confidence for the premier to go to THe Hague Repara- tion Conference. “The hour in any case is suffigiently grave to justify sacrifice of all other considerations fo the needs of our for- eign policy,” the declaration states, Hague Conference Link. ‘The Hagug Copference, which is to put into effécy -WWUNg plan, was de- scribed as “an essential link in the ensTh of peace.” “The defense of the rights and in- terests of France in this great interna- tional debate is our real reason for existence, it is our program for the moment and our only program.” Par- liament was informed that “we need your full confidence.” Refusal of members of the Radical Socialist party to enter the cabinet was the cause of “great regret” to the gov- ernment, but the cabinet hoped these deputies “can at least by their votes factlitate our international work.” Ready for Responsibilities. Premier Briand’s government consid- ered that “we find ourselves with the heaviest responsibilities that have weighed on any government since the cnd of the war. With your co-opera- tion we are ready to assume them. We count_upon you, inspired solely by the interests of France, to take your share.” The declaration arer 8 with a tribute to former Premier P Jre, on his sick bed awaiting an ope _Jon, saying: “The men who present themselves before you feel honored to have been associated in his work. It is to finish it they have remained together. They come to ask you for the means Greek Premier Visits Rome. ROME, July 31 (#).—Prime Minister Venizelos of Greece arrived here at 11 o'clock this morning and, after a con- ference with Benito Mussolini, Fascist Jeader, left for Paris this afternoon en route to The Hague, where the confer- ence on reparations will be held next week. “I am going to the Hague conference to defend the interests of my country.” Venizelos, alert and smiling, told the Associated Press prior to taking the train for Paris. “I found his excellency Mussolini in perfect health and we had a most agreeable conversation.” Be- yond that the Hellenic leader would not go, preferring, he said, to let the Ital- jan foreign office issue its own com- muninue regarding the meeting. ‘The venerable Greek statesman was 1n the very best of spirits. He wore a panama hat, a light Summer suit and a natty green and red polka dot tie. London Hague Delegates.
