Answer:

Thomas Dewey

Explanation:

Harry Truman, in a speech in Boston, and Thomas Dewey, campaigning in Cleveland, both spoke of the Soviet Union's ambition to spread its influence in Europe and beyond. The newspapers reported on October 29, 1948 that "Truman and Dewey are in agreement to combat communist expansion."

The United States was scheduled to go to the polls four days later, on Tuesday, November 2, and a hotly contested presidential election was expected, with Dewey aiming to give the Republicans a victory that had eluded them since 1928. A decisive day, Truman, who had succeeded Franklin Roosevelt for his death in 1945, was eventually reelected president. And Dewey, whom the Chicago Daily Tribune came to claim as victor, lost again, as it had in 1944 against Roosevelt. The photo of Truman showing the newspaper that mistakenly attributed the victory to his rival was famous.

How did the battle in the Atlantic end between the Allies and Nazis?
meriva

The Battle of the Atlantic took place throughout the northern region of the Atlantic Ocean. Once the United States entered the war the battle spread all the way to the coast the United States and the Caribbean Sea.  The battle lasted over 5 years and 8 months from September 3, 1939 to May 8, 1945. The control of the Atlantic had a major impact on the outcome of the war. Keeping Britain supplied helped to keep the Germans from taking over all of Western Europe. The losses in the battle were staggering. Over 30,000 sailors were killed on each side. The Allies lost around 3,500 supply ships and 175 warships. The Germans lost 783 submarines.

Fun Facts:

Winston Churchill first called it the "Battle of the Atlantic" in 1941.

It was estimated that at least 20 supply ships needed to arrive each day in Britain in order for them to continue to fight the war.

The Allies lost 1,664 supply ships in 1942.

The Germans sometimes used a "wolf pack" tactic where a number of submarines would surround and attack a supply convoy at once.

Allied planes used a large spotlight called the Leigh Light to spot submarines that had surfaced at night.
