High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Ralph Austin Bard (July 29, 1884 - April 5, 1975) was a Chicago financier who served as Assistant Secretary of the Navy, 1941-1944, and as Under Secretary, 1944-1945. He is noted for a memorandum he wrote to Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson in 1945 urging that Japan be given a warning before the use of the atomic bomb on a Japanese city. Although he was an active Republican, Bard was appointed Assistant Secretary of the Navy by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, a Democrat who had once held the same post. As Assistant Secretary, Bard was responsible for all matters relating to civilian personnel and the general administration of the Navy Department.
