Protests Charge

STOCKHOLM. May 3.-Deny-
ing that Sweden is being used as
a clearing house" for German
finances, the Swedish press today
protested the American treasury
departments plans to sequester
1888. 100000 of Swedish funds in
the United States.
The state departments hesita-
ton to accept the treasury's plan
is ''well-founded," the newspaper
Allehanda commented.
Impounding of the funds, said
the Dagens Nyheter, would be in
conflict with international law and
Swedish American agreements
The size of Sweden's account in
America is explained by the fact
that much of this country's foreign
holdings were transferred to
America on defense orders. which
were held up by the blockade.
