Re:
Loews Corporation
Registration Statement on Form S-3
(Registration No. 333-123104)
Dear Mr. Riedler:
On behalf of our client, Loews Corporation (the “Company”), enclosed are copies of Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the
Registration Statement on Form S-3 which was filed today via EDGAR with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). Also enclosed are copies of Amendment No. 2 marked to show changes from Amendment No. 1 to the Registration
Statement filed with the Commission on March 22, 2005.
As
discussed during a telephone conversation on March 28, 2005 with Suzanne Hayes and Albert Lee of the staff of the Commission, the Company has amended the Registration Statement to remove the “Risk Factors” and “Forward Looking
Statements” sections, as well as the cross-reference on the prospectus cover page to the “Risk Factors” section, since the Company believes that none of the factors referred to therein are required to be discussed in the base
prospectus pursuant to Item 503(c) of Regulation S-K.
In the
event that the Company offers any securities under the Registration Statement that involve risks of the type contemplated by Item 503(c) of Regulation S-K, a discussion thereof will be included in the relevant prospectus supplement under the caption
“Risk Factors” and a cross-reference to such discussion (including the page number where it appears) will be included on the cover page of such prospectus supplement.

undersigned at (212) 735-2918.
Very truly
yours,
