Box 61, Radio City Station. THE QUESTION' Many children have run away from their homes for short pe MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS T9 Associated Press is entitled exclusively to the use for reoubllcation of all tha local news printed in this newspaper as well as all AP news dispatches. WHAT FOLLOWS THE FREEZE? One of the most important questions now exciting many Americans is: What happens to the U.S. economic system after Nov. 13, when President Pdchard M.

Nixon's anti-inflation wage-price- so, get riods of time. Did you? If how did you manage to along? WHERE ASKED Yorkville THE ANSWERS Arjsad P. Voros, E. 86th rfV. 4t''t "I was often tempted to run away from home.

I did, finally, when I was 10 years of age because I rent freeze is due to expire Secretary of Commerce Maurice H. Stans and Treasury Secretary John B. Connally expect controls of some sort to survive the freeze for quite a while. Some thinkers want permanent wage and price controls others want a re- got mad at my mother. I had a dime in my pocket and I Stans Connally went skating at the Wollman rink.

Late that night I was very hungry and weakened, so I went home. My friends know me as a big eater." Jesse V. Colston, Bayside, turn to an uncontrolled, unmanaged economy the moment the freeze period ends. Our own feeling: Inflation had become so dangerous that it was necessary for Mr. Nixon to clap the freeze on the economy.

But the U.S.A. did not become the great nation it is by virtue of lasting brakes and checks on business, industry, labor, consumers, and individual get-up-and-get. Hence, we believe most Americans should join with the Nixon administration in opposing imposition of any permanent controls on the economy after Nov. 13, and insist on abandonment as soon as feasible of any semi-controls that may survive the wage-price-rent freeze. Buy a set of permanent controls, and we're all too likely to exchange the birthright of our free-enterprise system for some inferior and injurious version of Fascism, Socialism or Communism.

Queens, private chauffeur: "I certainly did. I got tired of the farm at Quincy, and made up my mind to skiddoo. I never regretted running away from home, but I went back after 18 years. Both VOICE OF THE PEOPLE my lather and Pleas give nam and address with lett er. We uill xiithhold both on request.

THE GREAT END RUN Roselle, N. Since when do motner were sun living, nat a welcome back I got! Actually, my father was proud of me for having the gumption to run away." Jimmy Gatanas, Astoria, Queens, New Yorkers have a monopoly on the Giants How about the thou sands of Jerseyans whose lovalty is just as fierce, and who have found venturing into Mayor Lindsay's Fun City no longer fun? J. A. NEAD. Plainview: With the football restaurant manager: "No.

I was a good boy. Yes, a very good boy." Mrs. Sissy Jaques, Manhattan, FREE PRESS NOTE Moscow University, in Soviet Russia, has a school of journalism, and the dean of this institution, by name Yas-sen Zassoursky, visited New York recently. While here, he had a talk with some U.S. newspaper people.

Dean Zassoursky (love that Med Professor name) allowed that the Soviet Rus-Tells Us Off s'an Press is 100 free to publish anything except anti-Soviet material, war propaganda and smut. He added that the U.S. press is free only to support the interests of the masterclass, to use an old Communist epithet. The News, he went on, should not be free to call Fidel Castro, Red Cuban dictator, a bearded bandit. To the best of our recollection, we never have called Castro a bearded bandit.

The term we prefer is "bearded bum," because that is what the bum is. Soviet publications, of course, are "free" to call President Nixon a running dog of Capitalism, a lackey of Wall Street, and so on. But U.S. newspapers have that same freedom, and the Nixon-hating ones use and abuse it. Soviet papers are not free to call Kremlin dictators Brezhnev and Kosygin any but pretty and flattering names.

All in all, we're glad we're an American newspapei. And speaking of SOVIET RUSSIA its leading sports "new paper" the other day loosed a loud blast at the great U.S. chess player, Bobby Fischer. The sheet admitted that Mr. Fischer is an "all-around home: 1 was tempted to run away from home many, many times and for many, many reasons.

One time I got into a peck of trouble and I made, up my mind to really go. But I never did. My pa, its were understandably strict, .0 the desire to run away was a result of the environment in which I lived." Paul J. Skuassi, E. 82d THE CRIME FIGHTERS Mahopac: To get liberal backing for the presidential nomination, Mayor IJndsay will have to promise to handcuff J.

Edgar Hoover. If you don't think he and Murphy can do it, look at the present state of New York's finest. T.D. Manhattan: The only way to stop all this crime is to get the cops on the street again walking beats. Cops in patrol cars are not enough.

DONALD SLOAN. Detroit: We also had Patrick Murphy as police commissioner here, and he did exactly what he is doing in New York undermining morale and not standing up for his men. R.D. Brooklyn: For a long time, the police force has needed a turnover, and I am happy to see that Commissioner Murphy has had the guts to do it. Biit let's not have the good suffer for the bad; pull out the roots of evil.

C.N. PRODDING THE POLITICO.5? Brooklyn: It would be a public service if a few million good, law-abiding citizens of New York wrote to their representatives in Albany demanding that they bring back the death penaltv for murder. WILLIAM O'CONNOR. SOMETHING MISSING Queens: I have been watching the growth of labor unions for the past 30 years, and what ha depressed me most is their failure to produce one statesman. George Meany apparently feels his loyalty to his unions tran-secnds his obligations to his country.

His statements are salted with 'demands." Sometime I would like to hear him and his group offering more productivity in payment for thoe demands JOHN KAE. FEARS OF TYRANNY Chatham, N.J.: The Protestant people of Northern Ireland ire only defending their liberty; they cannot live under the domination of the Catholic Church, which in the Suth. Wny do Irih Catholics keep harping about what the British are dninjj? They are only hiipmg a free people keep their freednrn. Mrs. ELLEN ERR.

jii ii tfnt Giants leaving, and the baseball Giants and Dodgers long gone, the Yankees deserve a lot more credit and support from the New York fans. Let's rebuild Yankee Stadium or, better yet, bui'd a new stadium at the Mitchel Field site in Hempstead anything to keep the team in New York. MARC TERMAN. Mohegan Lake: It would be a fitting finale to New York's most prominent flops if the fumbling Giants departed to the smelly swamps of Hackensack with ex-Mayor Lindsay going along as water boy. New York Football Giants, indeed.

How about calling them the Hackensack Midgets L.C. CASH AND CARRY Queens: My employer wouldn't think of mailing my pay check to me; in fact, I have to go to the office five days a week to get it. I don't think it would be asking too much to require that all welfare clients except those who are disabled call for their checks twice a month at their welfare offices. Mrs. D.

G. DRAWING A PARALLEL Brooklyn: When the French and Greeks revolted against the Germans in World War II and killed many of them, they were called partisans and patriots. But according to the media here, when the Irish do the same against the British, they are terrorists The British have no more right to be in Ireland than the Germans had to be in France and Greece. T. WALSH.

NOT PANNING OUT? Bronx: The computers of the Off-Track Betting Corp. are out of order most of the time, and are manned inexperienced, low-paid person lei of limited education. It is comparable to mining a g'dd mine a sjivin. I'FRl'LKXED. college student: "Yes, I ran away from home just once and that was enough.

I was so mad about something that a ned at home that I just couldn't stand living there. So chess player, unusually strong in both positional and combinational games," but added that recently he has been telling untruths about Russian chess experts. These folks, Fischer was quoted as charging, habitually plot to play draw games against one another but play to defeat foreign players. This is far from the first time such charges have been fired at Soviet chess players. And it's at least a fair bet that trip charirpo am trno TVio TiTi-am 1 i VioKit- I ran to a friend's house.

When mv folks came looking for me, I hid in the closet and my friend didn't give me away." James E. MacGowan, E. 92d LJkC Li food mover: "Yes, I thought about it many times and for many, ma reasons. I was always getting into a lot of trouble and being admonished for it. But I Bobby Fischer ualJy useg gporta f(Jr political purposeg So here's a suggestion: Why no a free-world chess federation of some sort, which would refuse to recognize chess "champions" in Soviet Russia, Red China, or any of the Captive Nations, until and unless ironclad international chess tournament rules to preclude cheating were accepted by thom nations? All this isn't overly important; but why should free-world chess players hold still while Reds pl7 them for patsies x4 never did run away.

My parents grew up in the slums and I wis a product of that environment.".
