Alexan der P. De Severesky told the War department, today. Summarizing his findings on an official- inspection tour of the Pa cific made last fall at the behest of Secretary of War Patterson, Se veresky, an aviation authority, said in his report: “It was a - face-saving -miracle which saved perhaps half ,a million American lives and several million Japanese lives. Though the Hiro shima and Nagasaki episodes added only less than three per cent to the material devestatibn already visited on Japan, its psychologocal value was beyond calculation—for both the defeated and the victors.” As to the military importance, of the Hiroshima attack, Severeskv re peated his statements last week be fore the Senate Atomic committee that the same damage, with # prob ably less loss of life, could have been inflicted by 200 superfortresses load ed with incendiaries. The report was released by the War department with a statement by Patterson that it presented Se- veresky’s personal and not necessari ly the War department’s -’views but merited careful consideration. VETERAN LEFT $1,0000,000 BUT WILL NOT LET IT HALT SCHOOL SOUTH BEND, Ind.—A quiet mild- mannered 22-year-old former army lieutenant, attending Notre Dame university under the GI bill of rights said he had found out he was a mil lionaire, but refused to let $1,000,000 interfere with his studies. Jack Love, studying for a law de gree, sat on the edge of his bunk in a Notre Dame dormitory and told repbtrers that “it’s a cinch that I’m not going to be able to take care of my estate for a while My education is going to come first with me, no matter how much money I’ve in herited.!’ The husky 210-pounder from Hag erstown, Md., said the money was willed ito him by a bachelor great- uncle, Claude Logan, who died four weeks ago in Oljhnpia, Wash. The Notre Dame somphomore said he first heard about the inheritance two weeks ago. “But I didn’t see any use in tell ing anyone about it until I learned some more details,” he said. “I got a letter from a New York law firm a couple of weeks ago informing me that my great uncle had left me his entire estate of $1,000,000 or may be $1,500,000. It came as such a sur prise to me that I thought someone was kidding me. But later I got in touch with my father and he found out that it was true.” Love said that his uncle had never indicated in any way that such a fortune would be left to him, al though Logan had said that Love was his fs vorite nephew. “Uncle Claude told me that if I ever needed any money to; help me through school, to call on him,” the heir said. “But I’ve never asked him for a penny.” WANTED—HOGS—will pay $14.40 ceiling price for top hogs.
