Paris, Feb. 11.
The chairmen of every group in the Chamber of Deputies yesterday signed a motion proclaiming confidence in the Premier, M, Edouard Daladier, which was read by M. Edouard Herriot, President of the Chamber, as soon s the public session was resumed.
The motion reads: "The Chamber, after having, heard the statements of the Government, which it had been asked to make during the secret session in a debate characterized by high sentiment of patriotism, pays tribute to the efforts which the Government has continued to make with a view to making our material and moral forces equal to the heroism of our armies, and expresses confidence that the Government will carry on this effort in ce-operation with Parliament and thus conduct the war to a victor:
The greatest importance is attached in political circles to the result of the secret session of Parliament held yesterday—the passing of a motion of confidence in the Government. It is emphasized that such a result shows that greater degree of confidence and ce-operation between Parliament and the Government has been established than had existed at any time since the outbreak of hostilities. It marks a decisive stage in the Consolidation of a single-minded national purpose, asserting the will of Parliament and of the people.to show an unbreakable front to the. enemy.
It is felt that the result of the debate will not only hearten Britain and impress neutrals, but will finally dash any lingering hopes Germany may have entertained of internal dissensions in France and of the possibilities of separating the Allies—Reuter.
