SIXTKEN BRIDGEPORT SUNDAY POST, MARCH 12, 1961 By D. HAROLD OLIVER WASHINGTON. (AP) The Democratic National Committee and the Senate and House Campaign committees agreed yesterday on a unified fund-raising drive for the first time in the party's history. President Kenne dy favors the arrangement. Heretofore, the three groups have conducted separate drives which have led to much confusion and competition for funds.

Now the National committee will conduct a single drive, with help from the two other groups, and then allot money to each in amounts to be set after a na tional goal is determined about June 1. The National committee still owes S2.8 million from the 1900 campaign and needs another S800.000 to run its affairs this year. Treasurer Matthew H. Me- Closkey said he hopes to erase the deficit with fund-raising i ners in Boston, Washington. Los Angeles, San Francisco and Chicago.

The Washington dinner is set for May 27 and the Boston one for May 29, the President's 44th birthday. Other dates have not been determined. Bailey Announces Setup John M.

Thomas J. Dodd, said yesterday attacks upon him by a Soviet government newspaper and radio convince him he was right in opposing shipment of machine tools to the Soviet.

Senator Dodd said in a statement that the newspaper Izvestia accused him of pressuring Secretary of Commerce Luther H. Hodges into cancelling the license of the Bryant- company, Springfield, to ship machines which manufacture miniature ball bearings used in missile systems. Senator Dodd, vice chairman of the Senate Internal Security subcommittee, denied exerting pressure on Mr. Hodges, saying all he did was present facts to Mr. Hodges which resulted in the export license revocation.

He said experts all agreed it would be a mistake to send such equipment to Russia. Radio broadcasts from Russia said Senator Dodd belongs to that circle of the Democratic party which it said was trying to revive in America's policy "the methods of Truman and Acheson, who, as is well known, laid the foundations for the cold war." Senator Dodd said "this violent outburst of abuse by the Soviets convinces me that the communists badly needed these machines. I am glad they won't get them." to us."

Nixon told them to look for someone else to run for governor next year. Tanned and relaxed, the former vice president offered his home state party a three-point program and his leadership in a campaign for a GOP political comeback next year. But he made it clear right off, in private conferences with a group of state legislators, that he has removed himself as a candidate for Democratic Gov. Edmond G. "Pat" Brown's job.

Nixon's statement didn't really surprise, party leaders who hesitated to see Nixon gamble his future presidential chances on a state campaign. Disappoints GOP But it did disappoint the hopes of many Republicans. They figured he showed his strength in carrying California against a 3-2 Democratic registration last' November and could win the governorship easily. In recent years, the once-dominant Republicans have lost all but two statewide offices, and control of both the legislature and the 30-man congressional delegation.

In one of his few references to the I960 presidential race, Nixon said: "There is no question in my mind that a majority of the voters actually would have supported us if we had had an organization equal to that of our opponents in the key states in the big cities." On Republican prospects In 1964, Nixon said he had no patience whatever with "the hand- wringing faint hearts who are already conceding 1964 to our opponents." He said President Kennedy has won considerable approval at the outset of his administration, but he said the honeymoon period ives no indication nf how Ke'i- nedy will come through In the long run. "They have yet to be tested." he said of the Democrats in Washington. Nixon declared it's the responsibility of Republicans to fight those phases of Kennedy's domestic programs which w'ill lend to increases in government spending and controls. GOP I PROVIDE ST.
