Like a couple of boxers retiring to their corners after a grueling round, the Government and the independent trade union movement are each looking ahead to a respite from strikes and confrontations. Last week, for the first time since the end of the Christmas holidays, Poland was free of labor disruptions, sit-ins or other strife. The union has not formally endorsed the appeal made last month by the new Prime Minister, Gen. Wojciech Jaruzelski, for ''90 days of peace.'' But in private talks with Government officials and in an interview given by the union spokesman, Karol Modzelewski, to a Warsaw newspaper, the union has made it clear that it is willing to go along with the idea.
NEWS SUMMARY
Date: 01 March 1981
SUNDAY, MARCH 1, 1981 International American involvement in El Salvador is opposed by a group of Democrats in the House, and they are maneuvering to dissuade the Administration from sending arms and military advisers. Nevertheless, the Democrats concede they lack the strength to block the Administration. The Democratic opposition in the Senate is overwhelmed by a fairly solid Republican majority. The Democrats' position is strikingly different from the situation in December 1975 when a Democratic majority blocked President Ford's proposals to send aid to anti-Communists in Angola.

WASHINGTON A FREEZE on Federal purchases of private land, combined with proposed reductions in spending, could sharply decrease the money available to acquire acreage in the Pine Barrens, Federal and state officials say. The Administration wants to sharply cut back the Federal portion of the Department of the Interior's Land and Water Conservation Fund, out of which will come $26 million authorized by Congress to pay for land in the ecologically sensitive pinelands. The proposed cuts, announced last week, came hand in hand with a freeze on new Federal land purchases decreed by the Secretary of the Interior, James G. Watt. He said that he would like to shift the department's emphasis from buying land to restoring parks and recreational property already owned by the Government.

It was a Saturday afternoon, the Rev. Michael S. Curry related, and after working on a sermon at the United Methodist Church in Smithburg, W. Va., he walked from the church office to the parsonage, and there he found a butcher knife piercing the upholstered backrest of his chair. ''You will be dead,'' a note said.

The resumption Wednesday of the antitrust trial against the American Telephone and Telegraph Company represents an unfavorable turn of events for the huge company, many industry analysts say. They argue that if the trial runs its course, perhaps a year or two, it could put off for that long a solution to the question of ground rules by which Bell must operate in new businesses in the telecommunications industry, such as information processing. If the consent decree settlement sought with the Justice Department had been along the lines widely reported, it could have resulted in significantly wider operating rights for Bell and on favorable terms. Such a settlement, it seemed, was nearly at hand between the Justice Department and A.T.& T. before talks broke down last week, setting the stage for resuming the historic antitrust trial.
Signs and Portents; Of Budget Struggle

The big battles are yet to be fought, but last week President Reagan won two modest victories in his declared war on Government bloat. A Federal district judge in Washington upheld one of his first Presidential actions, a decree banning further Government hiring. The judge said that thousands of prospective bureaucrats who had received job offers from the lame duck Carter Administration but weren't on the payroll by Jan. 20 were out of luck.

The world record for a stay at the North Pole was 28 hours when David Porter, a television engineer of Hope, N.J., said in early 1980 that he would lead a party of 12 on a four-day campout there. The group planned to stay in tents insulated against the cold, which averages 40 degrees below zero.

International Postponement of a scheduled arms talk with the Soviet Union that would deal with questions of compliance with previous strategic arms limitation agreements is being considered by the Administration. Officials said that the regularly scheduled session of the Standing Consultative Commision on March 25 would probably be delayed for a month or two to allow the United States time to work out its future policies on strategic arms issues and to fill key staff positions. (Page A1, Col. 4.) Moderates in the Administration are directing the President's foreign and defense policies, though he was often identified with doctrinaire positions as a candidate. This has upset Republican conservatives, like Senator Jesse Helms of North Carolina. With some notable exceptions, the newly appointed policy makers appear to represent the mainstream of the Republican Party. (A1:5.)
