bombing survey In Japan. The

The survey, a iiroup of civil
ian and military exports appoint
ed a year ai(n, made Its second
report on n Europrnn aludy
available today a blood-chill-Inn
account of the horror mod
ern war vlaila upon clvlllana.
Member of tho survey now are
mnkliiK a similar study In Jap
an, whero tho aerial bombard
ment of that country ended with
tho dropping of two atomic
bombs.
Cryptic
Tho aunouncemunt on tho
forthcoming teat nifuliud war
ahlpa wan cryptic. It aaid only
that plana for tho operation in
volved assembling "many naval
vessels," extensive uao of rec
ord Instrument and the guther
ing of necessary personnel.
Although there ho been spec
ulation that captured Japanese
naval shipa might bo used at
targets, nuvy officials say that
because they luck such factors
as extenslvo compartmontutlon,
they aro not fully comvarable
to American warship..
The second report of tho stra
tegic bombing survey covered
the effects of tho allied bombing
on German civilian life. The
medical brunch of the survey
found, among other things, that
fire was tho great killer In air
raids and that an estimated 500,
000 persons died In German cit
ies under tho pounding of aerial
fleets.
These wero the Immediate re
sults of tho attacks. The doctors
who made the study commented:
"All aspects of bombing cannot
be reported here because they
are not as yet readily disccrna
ble in their entirety. We feci
that the effects of bombing civ
ilian populations are in many
ways subtle long-range effects.
Fsmln
The bombing, they said,
brought. Germany to the brink
of pestilence and famine, a prob
lem that now threatens the po.it-
wnr nrlm Int.f rnl Inn nf II,m rl.
rented rolch.
MaJ. Cortex F. Enloe of Mnn
hussot, N. Y one of the survey
group, told a new conference
that the atomic bomb raid on
Nagasaki "was not nearly as
bad as tho area raid on tho city
of Hamburg." There, he snld,
three attacks in as many days
set off flros that burned six
weeks and in which 46,000
known dead wero counted. An
estimated 10,000 more bodies
still are in the ruins two and
one-half years after (Japanese
authorities estimated that from
40,000 to 43,000 died in tho Na
gasaki attack.)
"The danger of the atomic
bomb Is tho-dunger of fire," said
Enloe.
Atomic bomb experts, how
ever, rate fire as second In casualty-attaining
results. They
glvo the blast effect top posi
tion, with radioactivity tho third
casualty-producing effect.
