Joe L. Allbritton, who has signed a letter of intent to take over the troubled Daily News, suspended negotiations with the newspaper's unions last night after they expressed interest in talking to Rupert Murdoch, the publisher of The New York Post, about buying The News. ''I am the only possible purchaser of The News,'' Mr. Allbritton said in a statement. ''It would be useless to negotiate under these circumstances. I am therefore suspending further meetings with the unions until their position is clarified. I am, as the Tribune Company made clear, the buyer of last resort, and the deadline remains April 25.''

The call Wednesday by four former Government officials for an allied pledge not to be the first to use nuclear weapons in Europe, coming on top of the movement for a freeze on nuclear arsenals, is new evidence that the nation is moving toward the first major debate on nuclear policy in more than a decade. As the North Atlantic alliance was being formed in the late 1940's, isolationist and internationalist politicians engaged in a grand debate over whether this country should commit large ground forces to the defense of Europe. The outcome was the stationing of several American divisions on the Continent. In the late 1960's, as the Johnson and Nixon Administrations were groping toward the first major strategic arms negotiations with the Soviet Union, there was another major debate, over whether to develop and deploy antimissile defense systems. Opponents contended that the systems would upset the strategic balance that rested on mutual Soviet and American vulnerability, and they largely prevailed.

The world's big oil companies and the powerful oil-producing countries are engaged in a major confrontation over prices. The issue is the high price that Nigeria, with the strong backing of other members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, is charging for its oil. The companies, which can buy the same high-quality crude for $4.50 a barrel less than from North Sea producers, are tiring of losing money on every barrel of Nigerian crude they purchase. The stakes, from the companies' perspective, are millions of dollars in profits. To the producers, the issue may be the continued existence of OPEC as an effective force in the world oil market.

News of Music; MUSICIANS AND AFTRA TALKING MERGER

THE American Guild of Musical Artists is negotiating a merger with the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists. Preliminary talks between the two unions began last summer in Cleveland and have proceeded in earnest since February. Reports are that an agreement will be reached before the end of the year. Increasingly, the music profession is directing its hopes toward the electronic media, and the talks represent one of organized labor's responses to the trend. The guild is a small union of about 5,000 members and consists mainly of solo singers, opera choristers and dancers. The guild negotiated the Metropolitan Opera Chorus contract during the contract talks at the Met last season. Aftra is a union of about 55,000 members and represents television performers and news people. With opera companies becoming more and more active in public and cable television and in videodisks and cassettes, the guild's performers have found their jurisdictions overlapping with those of their larger sister union. The Met's choristers in its ''Live From the Met'' broadcasts, for example, operate under contracts negotiated by Aftra and hold Aftra as well as guild memberships.

Then Lord Carrington made it clear to the new Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher, that he would accept nothing else. Deeply disappointed, Mr. Pym became Defense Secretary. On Monday, as a result of Lord Carrington's resignation over the Falkland crisis, the 60-year-old Mr. Pym moved into the Foreign Office on Whitehall. He brings to the task ambition and long service in a succession of government posts, including Leader of the House of Commons, his last.
