Premier Leon Blum's four-day-old Cabinet and his $1,000,000,000 program for swift rearmament won a 369-to-196 vote of confidence tonight in Shortly before facing the Chamber, the Cabinet had taken two steps to hasten France's arms building. It authorized extraordinary expenditure of about $134,000,000, mostly for new fighting planes, and decided to ask Parliament for additional exceptional armaments credits. However, Blum did not emerge from his! ministry's first test of power with his lines intact. The vote came only after a minority had rejected his offer to form a national union government of all parties to succeed the present Popular Front Cabinet.
