"Within 90 days of my inauguration, every American soldier and every American prisoner will be out of the jungle and out of their cells and back home in America where they belong." So spoke Sen. George MeGovern early yesterday in accepting the Democratic presidential nomination, and the statement brought his frenzied peacenik supporters to peace before the presidential elec tionr WHERE ASKED Various spots THE ANSWERS Ralph A.

Re 4 suming the talks Most Americans, we feel, consider the South Dakotan's bugout blueprint shameful.

MICHAEL EVANOCHKO. PRAISES PICTURE i Stratford, I want to comment on The New3 picture June 26 showing Fireman Doug Laverty wading in water up to his knees to save a litter of baby kittens.

But MeGovern sank to the level of glib, cruel trickery with his flat guarantee that he could deliver American prisoners from North Vietnam's hellhole jails.

Hanoi alone holds the keys to PW cells, and the ransom it demands for the captives is higher than even MeGovern has publicly said he is willing to pay. The Reds want more than just an American pullout and an end to U.S. aid to South Vietnam. They demand we aid them in imposing a Communist-dominated regime on Saigon. Has MeGovern made a secret, private deal to 3wallow even that humiliation? Or was he perpetrating a hoax on the anguished families of PWs by making a pledge he knows he cannot fulfill? We.

and a lot of other Americans, would like to know. If Hanoi has backed away even a millimeter from its hard-line stance, there was no sign of it at THE PARIS PEACE TALKS when they got under way again Thursday after a 10-week recess caused bv North Vietnam's invasion of the South. Mrs. Nguyen Thi Binh, chief mouthpiece for the Viet Cong, stood on her bosses' longtime position that the U.S. must, in effect, give up all its interests in South Vietnam and betray Saigon to the Reds.

Our side stood on its refusal to abandon its allies anywhere and its assurances that honest negotiations will lead to a settlement satisfactory to any reasonable person. It seems possible, at least, that Hanoi's stubbornness was just an opening gambit. Certainly U.S. bombing and harbor-minings up north are hurting the Red enemy, and it is widely reported that both Moscow and Peking are pressing Hanoi to move for a settlement. So we hope President Richard M.

Nixon will continue the steady, relentless pounding up north. That bombing is far more likely to bring this war to an end and return American prisoners than any amount of begging MeGovern has in mind. W.KING. West End Woodhaven: The kids must know something.

That task, the planners contend, should be tossed back to the city school system.

How right they are If the city schools were doing their job properly, there would be no necessity for special classes to bring City U. freshman up to snuff in basic subjects. Since the failure lies in the elementary and secondary schools, that's where the cure should be effected.
