Dodd (D.-Conn.) predictes that Northern and Southern Democrats would unite in the new Congress to push for passage of President elect Kennedy's legislative program. "I think we are going to see more of what we saw in the days of Franklin Roose velt when we made such so cial progress," Dodd said. "In those days the Southerners united with the Northerners Air Ministry in Britain Silent on Antiradar Device London - BM - An Air Min istry spokesman today de clined to comment on a report that Britain has developed a device to beat radar defenses. "We do not comment on matters such as these," the spokesman said. The Sunday Dispatch re ported Sunday that the Royal Aircraft Establishment has de veloped a device enabling British jet bombers to fly un detected over New York, De troit, San Francisco and other major U.S. "target" cities. According to the Dispatch, the new device prevented the American network detecting test bombers even though the Royal Air Force flights were announced in advance and the radar net told to find and track the "intruders." The paper did not say when the flights were made. The article was only car ried in the last two of the paper's 18 Sunday editions. The Ministry of Civil Avia tion, under whose jurisdiction the RAE falls, refused to con firm or deny the report. Washington -TOD- The Air Force denied flatly today that any British bombers packing antiradar devices had flown undetected over U.S. cities. The London Sunday Dis patch reported Sunday that such flights had been made by Royal Air Force bombers with devices that enabled them to thwart U.S. radar detection measures. An Air Force spokesman said the Royal Air Force had made nine flights into the United States since Nov. 12. All nine were seen by U.S. radar, he said. He said the RAF pilots filed flight plans as is customary. When U.S. radar detected the planes, ascertained that they were friendly and that their tracks matched the previously filed flight plans, they no longer were tracked.

(UPI Telephoto) and great good came to the country." Dodd said he saw no coali tion between Republicans and Southern Democrats to block liberal legislation, even though there may be a try at it "here and there." "I think you will find the Democratic majorities ... in the House and Senate more cohesive, more united be cause we will have a presi dent in the White House," Dodd said, adding:"We have had to fear this veto business for the last several years," However, Sen. Kenneth B. Keating (R.-N.Y.) said the Democrats will not see eye to eye on everything. Because of this, he said. Congress un doubtedly will make major changes in some of the legis lation Kennedy wants passed. Dodd forecast that Congress would pass a medical care for the aged program under the Social Security system.. Ken nedy fought for such a plan during the special session of Congress last summer but tne Republicans, Southern Dem ocrats and President Eisen hower opposed it. Dodd said Congress also would "hammer out some good legislation" on defense, aid to education, assistance to depressed areas, tax revision and a minimum wage law. But Keating said the Dem ocrats were divided on some of these issuses and Kennedy would fail to win support on many items from his own par ty. Dodd said he expects "give and take" in Congress on the details of Kennedy's propos als but the Democrats would be united on "general prin ciples." Portland Livestock Portland (UP!)

The defense department meanwhile asked the Army to complete arrangements for carrying out Hi share of the reduction and to show pos itive leadership in overcom ing the adverse effects of the move, it was learned. Reasons Seen The Army - Navy Air Force Register, published in dependently but closely as sociated with the military through reserve and retired officers, said it recognized that the foreign drain on Americas gold created ur gent fiscal reasons" for the reduction. The service journal, in an editorial prepared for publi cation next week, added: "But it is sheer folly to ig nore the serious morale after math. What we must do first is face up to the problem and then do something to remedy the situation. The government must do something about the econom ic situation that caused this crisis. The bringing home of dependents and other steps are only stop-gaps. "unless the basic problems are solved the economic ad vantae.es gained by these morale-shattering moves will be lost. We hope the new admin istration can and the solu tion." The number of dependents wili be reduced by 284,000 through i series of gradual steps. Authoriiatiom Banned The Air Force, which must reduce the number of its mil- itary dependents abroad at a rate of fl,120 a month be ginning in January, has ban ned family travel authoriza tions after Feb. 1 except in personal or special service hardship cases. It also banned extensions of overseas tours for men with families. in navy Has also com pleted plans tor replacing mil itary families abroad with single officers in an effort to reduce the number of de pendents at a rat of 1,170 a month. out w Army nas as yei compjeiea no plan for iti j, lu-aepenaents-a-month re duction. Defense officials, concerned over what they called Army iooi dragging, said the Army command has been- re minded that Defense Secre tary Thomas S. Gafel Jr. asked for "positive leader ship" by military command era to minimize the tdverse impact of the president's prs gram. The move was ordered by Eisenhower as part of an ur gent program to slow the flight of American dollars and gold overseas, Army Secretary Wilber M. Brucker has said it would be "hard tfl overestimate" the importance of having military families overseas. He said he would try to (often the "ef fect on combat, effectiveness and morale "inherent in the dependents restriction.
