morrow Dewey is seeking re-elec- ton as governor of New York.
 Want Dewey Landslide
 There is a Republican tradition that defeated presidential can- oioates are never renominated. The New York State Republican organ. ization is out to put Dewey over tomorrow by a majority so large as to startle the country. The idea is that a smashing Dewey victory in New York State would do more than a little toward getting him renominated for president in ie4s.,
 If the New York Daily News straw vote poll is as accurate as usual, Dewey's victory will be a record breaker. The poll was com- 'pleted last night. It makes the al- most incredible forecast that James M. Mead, the Democratic candidate for governor, would carry only one county in the state. That one is the Bronx, one of the five counties comprising the city of New York. When Dewey was elected governor four years ago he lost New York. City, polling only 3S.7 percent of the vote cast there. But the big Re- publican vote upstate was sufficient to put him in office. The News poll estimates Dewey will win 5S.6 per- cent of the New York City vote this time and 66.l percent of the statewide ballots.
 Another l948 presidential pas- sibility is Gov. Earl Warren, of California. Warren caught the eye of Republicans all over the country this year by winning both the Democratic and Republican nomin- ations for governor. He has no op- position. Former Gov. Harold '. Stassen. of Minnesota, is not a can didate for office nor is Sen. Robert

special Dispatch to The Star.
BENEDICT. Md, Jan. 2.-Twenty
years before the Navy used its first
landing craft, Capt. P. C. Hender-
son, Benedict Md ferryman, was
putting loads ashore on the sandy
stretches of the Patuxent River in
Southern Maryland.
Capt. Henderson, who at So can
look back on % years as a ferry
boat operator between Charles and
Calvert Counties, believes the Navy
may have gotten its idea for beach
landing craft from some of the old
ferry boats.
Those old boats were made to
slide right up on sandy beach,
Capt. Henderson said. And no
matter how heavy you were loaded
there wasn't a chance of tipping
your cargo into the river"
Capt. Henderson said that during
his % years the only accident he
has had came from trying to unload
a heavy truck on wharf, con-
structed after good roads had been
built down to the rivers edge. The
boat tipped, he said, and the truck
went into the Patuxent. IF We had
been on a beach it couldn't have
happened" he said.
Capt. Henderson claims to be the
first ferryman to put motor in
his boat. Il was told it wouldn't
work." he said, but it did, and it
saved me a lot of work" Prior to
that time ferry boats we're either
poled or pulled by motor launch
Capt Henderson,s ferry is the only
means of getting from ST. Marys

YugosIavs Reported
Schooling Officers
For Third World War
BY LEIGH WHITE,

FOREIGN Correspondent for The Star anc
Chicago Daily News.
BELGRADE - Officer candidates
in the Yugoslav Communist Army
are being taught by their political
commissars that the third WORLD
war is inevitable"
1t will be war between the
Soviet east and the ''reactionary'
west, they are being told, in which
the Yugoslav Army is destined to
play a Leading role.
Since Britain and the United
States have been officially SUBJ
stituted for Germany and italy as
the principal enemies" of what
Communist dialecticians now cal
popular democracy" the latter are
making systematic effort to teach
young Yugoslavs to hate us.
Reliable nom Communist parti-
sans, who swear to the truth OF
these assertions, say that they are
being forced against their will tc
participate in what they regard as
a gigantic plot to Sovietize all Of
Europe-by the NaZi method OF
peaceful penetration" If possible
and by force if necessary.
Their testimony is borne out BY
the official treatment accorded tt
Americans and Britons now in
Yugoslavia. Stigmatized as agent;
of "antidemocratic" powers, we are
being Stunned these days as if We
had the plague.
Persons who dare to fraternize
with us-and the great majority OF
Yugoslavs would like to-are being
blacklisted for future punishment
as traitors" to popular democ-
racy."

Until January 4 (the Assembly
