Date: 14 September 1981

William Farrell
The Egyptian Government announced today that it was expelling the correspondent here for Le Monde, and accused him of ''insulting and distorting the image of the Egyptian people and Government.'' The expulsion of Jean-Pierre Peroncel-Hugoz was the second ouster of a foreign journalist here in four days. On Thursday, Chris Harper, the ABC News correspondent in Cairo, was given 24 hours to leave the country. He went the next day.

Having arrested 1,600 people, closed seven publications, arbitrarily transferred journalists and professors, dissolved religious societies and removed Pope Shenuda III as head of the Coptic Church, President Anwar Sadat of Egypt last week also expelled a reporter, Chris Harper of ABC, for daring to film a critical interview with a previously expelled British correspondent - in Beirut. The film was stolen from an air package at Cairo airport a month ago in what must have been the result of an elaborate secret police operation.

OWNED CONSERVATIVE PAPERS

William Loeb, the ferve ntly conservative pu blisher of The Manchester Union Leader and The New Hampshire Sunday News, died yesterday afternoon at the Leahy Clinic in Bu rlington, Mass. He was 75 years old. Paul H. Tracy, the papers' editor in chief, who announced the death, said Mr. Loeb had succumbed to cancer several weeks after being hospitalized. Mr. Loeb was a small-town newspaper publisher whose sneers at national political leaders and starkly limned views from the far right of the spectrum earned him quadrennial notoriety because of the Presidential primaries in New Hampshire, the candidates' first testing ground. Mr. Loeb did not live in New Hampshire. He divided his time between his ranch in Reno and, increasingly in recent years, a Tudor mansion on a 100-acre estate at Prides Crossing, a village in Beverly, Mass., about 20 miles northeast of Boston.

Essay; REACTING TO CRITICISM
Date: 13 September 1981

Israel's Prime Minister came to town this week amidst an unprecedented barrage of newsmagazine criticism. Newsweek topped Time's classic ''Begin (rhymes with Fagin)'' ethnic slur with a Star of David made of rifles, adding ''Obstacle to Peace?'' to this unintended desecration, and joining Time in demanding that Mr. Reagan ''get tough'' and ''confront'' Israel. Mr. Begin's only public reaction to this firestorm from midtown Manhattan was to mention in passing the offensive magazine cover during remarks centered on the ''two good days'' spent placing a strategic opportunity before the American President. The Israeli leader, accustomed to the sting of a free press at home, crossed up his critics by accentuating the positive. He refused the invitation to focus this trip on the opposition to the sale of Awacs to the Saudis, and discussed no deals to compensate Israel for this blow to its security.

On July 27, 1960, I covered the arrival of Patrice Lumumba at Washington's National Airport and his 30-minute news conference at the State Department. At the time, I was television correspondent for United Press-Fox Movietone Newsreel, with 120 domestic televison stations and 30 foreign networks. The State Department news conference was arranged following my request and that of the CBS correspondent assigned to the story. (The ''regulars'' on the beat were for the most part relaxing in between the political conventions of the Democrat and Republican Parties.)

News Analysis
Date: 14 September 1981
By Philip Taubman, Special To the New York Times

As teams of investigators and prosecutors reconstruct the activities of Edwin P. Wilson, a former American intelligence agent charged with illegally exporting explosives to Libya, a handful of other officials have been quietly studying some of the national and international issues the case raises. The issues they are reviewing have touched a raw nerve in Government. Ultimately, if the Government is willing to confront the issues fully and seek reforms where necessary, the results could be more significant than the outcome of the criminal case against Mr. Wilson. The Wilson case, for example, has revealed serious weaknesses in the laws, regulations and policies that govern the transfer of American arms and technology abroad, according to senior officials in the Reagan Administration. It has also demonstrated, they said, the inadequacy of United States criminal laws, which do not prohibit the training of terrorists abroad by American citizens or the sale of expertise in intelligence, arms and explosives by Americans to hostile foreign powers.

Major News; Primarily Confusing
Date: 13 September 1981
The term ''voting-rights violations'' may still evoke memories of sheriffs with shotguns, but these days it's likelier that the circumstances are more mundane. That was the case last week, when a Federal court ruled - and the Supreme Court q uickly agreed - that New York City had violated the Voting Rights Act. The effect, however, was anything but mundane. The city's primaries were postponed nine hours before the polls were due to open, throwing the electorate and the would-be elected alike into utter confusion.
