Wayne Biddle
News reports had spread the story of Willow Lynne Cramlet and her search for her son Eland, abducted by his father three and a half years earlier. Some Tulsa, Okla., residents thought the description fit a boy they knew as ''Jeff'' and they said as much to Miss Cramlet last week. Mother and son are now together at her home in Arvada, Colo., after Miss Cramlet, aided by Tulsa police, came and collected him.

WARY TAIWAN KEEPS TIGHT REIN ON FREE EXPRESSION

Incidents of Government interference with magazines or books are a constant reminder that there are always limits to free expression here, despite a considerable loosening of restrictions over the last decade by the ruling Nationalist Party. Recently, a monthly magazine owned by an opposition politician had its license to publish suspended. The Government's Garrison Command decided that two articles in the publication, The Eighties, gave a ''pessimistic sense'' of Taiwan, according to its editor in chief, Antonio Chiang. ''Usually they don't give such a concrete excuse,'' Mr. Chiang said. ''Usually they just say in general that you're 'confusing public opinion' or 'influencing public morals.' ''

The City of New York, effectively barred last week by a Federal judge from increasing its jail population beyond 10,200 inmates, now has two choices: build more jails or have fewer inmates. The city jails now hold about 10,030 prisoners, which is below the limit set by the judge, Morris E. Lasker of Federal District Court. Yet since the late 1970's the jails' population has steadily increased, from 6,700 in 1979 to more than 10,000 now, according to a Correction Department spokesman, Edward Hershey. And that trend shows no sign of reversing.

If Congress approves all of President Reagan's program to modernize nuclear striking forces, the result will be a dramatic increase in the size and especially the power of the nation's nuclear arsenal, according to a Congressional staff study and other analyses. The program will also give the Pentagon the ability to increase the arsenal's size and power more rapidly in future years, according to a Defense Department document. The Pentagon is, for instance, arguing in Congress that one benefit of new missiles will be ''an open missile production line'' ready to increase the force size quickly. A significant number of legislators who had opposed building the 10-warhead MX missile have said they will now probably support Mr. Reagan's request because he has promised to modify his strategic arms control proposals and to develop a less ''destabilizing'' small mobile missile with a single warhead.

Until the car-bomb explosion Friday in the heart of Pretoria, the occasional death of a bystander from underground violence nearly always seemed to result from miscalculation. But the Pretoria blast, which killed 17 people and wounded 188 outside air force headquarters there, introduced a form of violence that has been to some extent grimly expected and often theorized about but never before experienced in South Africa. An unofficial tabulation of acts of sabotage attributed in recent years to the underground military arm of the African National Congress, which seems to have tacitly accepted responsibility for the Pretoria bombing, puts the latest explosion in stunning perspective. It appears to have been the 88th known sabotage attack since the start of 1981 and it did more damage than all the previous 87 together.

International A South African black guerrilla leader said that a car bomb attack in Pretoria on Friday signaled ''an escalation'' and tactical change in his organization's struggle against white minority rule. But the rebel, Oliver Tambo, leader of the African National Congress of South Africa, declined to claim reponsibility on behalf of his organization for the attack, which killed 17 people and wounded 188 others at a military intelligence installation near Pretoria's center.

The Kentucky Commerce Department said last year that businesses in its state hoped to increase their trade with South Africa, a move that many states viewed with restraint because of that country's apartheid policy. The department's deputy secretary, Gene Smith, left in July on a trade mission to South Africa. Mr. Smith, now vice chairman of the Governor's Cabinet, sums up the results: ''It wasn't a bust, but it wasn't a big hit.''

International Overthrow of the Sandinists in Nicaragua by the end of the year is possible, William J. Casey, the Director of the Central Intelligence, and another senior Administration official believe, according to Administration and Congressional officials. The prediction, shared with Mr. Casey by Thomas O. Enders, Assistant Secretary of State for Inter-American Affairs, that the Americansupported Nicaraguan rebels have a good chance to bring down the Sandinists, seemed to undercut the Admininstration's longstanding assertion that American support for the rebel groups was primarily for the purpose of stopping arms shipments from Nicaragua to guerrillas in El Salvador, members of Congress said. (Page A1, Column 6.) A mutiny among P.L.O. commanders in eastern Lebanon has precoccupied Yasir Arafat, the leader of the Palestine Liberation Organization. On his first visit to Lebanon since he withdrew from Beirut last year, he has been traveling constantly in the area in Lebanon to put out the rebellion. His efforts emphasize the apparent seriousness with which he views the events there. P.L.O. officials in Damascus tried repeatedly to play them down. (A1:4.)

The cold war between Glen Cove, L.I., and the Soviet Union broke out just a year ago, and in no time the two sides were fighting about the beaches. The Glen Cove City Council, charging that a Soviet diplomatic mansion in the city was being used to spy on defense industries, banned Soviet diplomats from municipal beaches and other recreation areas.
