JFK's Top Aides Review National
 Security Program

WASHINGTON R - President Kennedy and his new Administra- tion's top defense officials today started a far-reaching review of the National Security Program.
 Seeking a safeguard peace with the Communist bloc, Kennedy be- gan talks with key aides at mid morning and arranged to resume the discussions after a recess for lunch.
 Sitting in with the President at i the conference in the Cabinet Room at the White House were Secretary of State Rusk and Sec retary of Defense Robert Nc Namara.

 Thompson's cable was under stood to report that KhruShchev - while talking hopefully of an agreement with the Kennedy Ad- ministration in private had adopted the same tough, unyield- ing position on issues that wreck ed previous Western hopes.
 Khrushchev served up the same old hash to Kennedy that he had placed before former President Eisenhower without success, said diplomatic officials.
 Kennedy moving about in the unpredictable fashion that has be- come almost routine since inaug- uration, popped into the press room for a surprise visit.
 He was accompanied by his wife, Jacqueline, looking like a fashionable teen-ager as she strolled through the White House lobby, wearing beige riding pants and three-quarters length sports coat.
 White House guards, who never had seen anything like it during the Eisenhower Administration, stared goggle-eyed. Kennedy also announce through his press secretary that he will allow live television coverage of all his news confer ences. All three major TV net works plan coverage of his first Presidential meeting with news
