BY the Associated Press.
The Federal Reserve Board esti-
mated yesterday that about $2,000,-
000, 900 Of American money Is being
boarded.
But, contrary to the ordinary bank
ers' disapproyal of boarding, the
board concluded that, under present
conditions, about the only danger Is
that people might take 1t out of hid
ing and deposit 1t in the banks.
The reason for this unusual dan
ger" the board explained, Is that the
banks already have plenty Of money,
and the boarded money might "ex-
pand bank reserves available for
lending) beyond the powers of the
Federal Reserve System to absorb
them at a time when policy Of
credit restraint was In the public in
terest."
Money In circulation was put at q
record $11,500, ,000, 900. The board
figured that 81, ,0oo, ,ooo, 900 of this was
boarded.
Americans were estimated to have
hidden $500, ,000, 900 to $1,000, 900 900,
foreigners accounting for the rest.
Unwarranted fear of banks and tax
alton were said to underlie American
boarding. The board said hoarders
were foolish and could keep their
money more safely and earn interest
at the same time by buying war
bonds.

With those words a young Amer

ordered a direct attack on three
enemy destroyers somewhere in the
southwestern Pacific.
One destroyer usually Is considered
handful for opposition by a sub
marine, but the American comman-
der tackled three of them and
brought his vessel safely to an
Australian port.
The submarine was coming to the
surface just at dusk to recharge its
batteries and freshen its air when
it sighted the enemy destroyer
squadron a short distance away.
The submarine could have stopped
short of the surface and been un-
detected, but the commander ordered
full speed toward the target.
The submarine fired two torpedoes
which barely missed one enemy de-
stroyer. and then crash dived

One Flicker Of Hope
Remains for Accord
In India Dispute
Grips Declares Britain
Would Consider Plan of
Natives at Any Time
ry the Associated press.

Fy the Associated Press.
NEW DELHI, India, April 13.-Of
the bright hopes Sir Stafford Cripps
brought to India, only an ember
remained today as the disappointed
British emissary took home his un-
accepted plan for giving India s
people a dominion's place In the
Commonwealth after the war.
The one flicker was supplied by
Sir Stafford yesterday at Karachi,
a stop-over on his homeward night.
when he said Britain would con-
slider q plan for India at any time
its leaders could agree on solution.
He made it clear, however, that the
initiative should come from the
Indians themselves.
From the United Nations point of
view there was solace from post
mortems on both sides which made
plain that Britain does not intend
to forsake India nor the Indians
to lose sight Of their danger from
japanese. aggression, .s,5zz.
I'VE are not going to embarrass
the British war effort In India nor
the efforts of our American friends
who may come here" said Pandit
Jawaharlal Nehru, powerful leader
Of the All-India Congress Party.
Sees Tragedy in Axis Victory.
II want to fight this idea-that
we must remain passive, that we
cannot do anything against the
Japanese invader. do feel
definitely that it would be tragedy
for the world II Germany and Japan
won this war and dominated the
world. I do not want this to
happen"
Sir Stafford, evidently tired and
worried, declared no interference
with the war effort would be tole-
rated.
Nehru did not elaborate on his
reference to "our American friends
who may come here" but it is
known that big United States bomb
ers and crews are based in India
and already have dealt destructive
blows against the enemy in Burma
and the Bay of Bengal.
Nehru met again yesterday with
Louis Johnson, President Roose-
velt's personal envoy to India. Sir
Stafford said Mr.. Johnson's role
in the long but fruitless discus
sions was entirely unofficial and
asserted the Congress first ap-
preached Mr.. johnson. Mr.. Roose-
welt. he said, had no part in the
matter.
Takes Issue With Cripps.
Nehru took issue with the British
envoy on Mr.. Johnson's part.
"Sir Stafford Cripps' statement at
Karachi about Congress leaders 60
ing to Col. Louis johnson and his
acting as mediator is not correct
and is liable to be misunderstood,
he said in a statement.
"Sir Stafford Cripps has not been
fair either to Col. johnson or to
the Congress leaders. There was
never any question, as I stated pre-
viously, of our asking for mediation
or arbitration from any one and
President Roosevelt's name has been
needlessly dragged into this matter.
"Col. johnson did not interfere
in any way, though, of course, he
expressed his desire that salts

Whether this indicated that an
active movement would be started

basis, was something not likely to
be known until Sir Stafford Cripps,

ported fully to the cabinet and
