Bargainers for the unions at The Daily News and for Joe L. Allbritton, who is seeking to acquire the newspaper, say they intend to speed up their negotiations to meet a deadline next Sunday for an agreement on contract concessions to save the threatened newspaper. Edward Silver, the labor lawyer representing Mr. Allbritton, said yesterday that ''everybody is looking toward an accelerated schedule.'' The union leaders must meet the Sunday deadline, which was set by Mr. Allbritton, but the membership ratification votes can come later, he said. Theodore W. Kheel, the adviser to the unions, said that round-theclock bargaining sessions were ''urgent'' because of the complexity of the issues and the fact that they involve 11 unions and potentially all three major city dailies.

As Secretary of State Alexander M. Haig Jr. continued his mediation effort over the Falkland Islands, it was becoming clear how little leverage the United States has to move Argentina toward a compromise with Britain. Argentina's right-wing military junta is one of the most conspicuously anti-Communist regimes on the continent, and, in a switch from the Carter Administration's cold-shoulder approach, President Reagan has been assiduously wooing Buenos Aires as a strategic ally in the struggle against leftist movements in Central America. Lieut. Gen. Leopoldo Galtieri, the bluff general who heads the junta, had until the last few days the reputation of being one of the most pro-American leaders Argentina has had. But the crisis touched off by Argentina's seizure of the Falkland Islands has demonstrated that Argentina's concerns and strategic interests are not necessarily those of the United States, no matter how much Washington and Buenos Aires might agree on what should be done in a place such as El Salvador. Soviet Is Trading Partner ''There is a lot of anti-Communist rhetoric here,'' commented a Western ambassador, ''but underneath it lies a pragmatic understanding with the Soviet Union I think that, no matter what happens, the United States is going to lose here.''

Follow-Up on the News; Buying Funerals

A new law adopted by New York City in August 1981 was designed to protect consumers in their dealings with funeral homes because, in the words of the law's sponsor, Councilman Henry J. Stern, ''aside from a house and a car, a funeral is the single most expensive purchase that many people make.'' Among other obligations, the law required funeral homes to give prices over the phone, display prominently the prices of coffins and show customers a ''presentation sheet'' listing ''information on alternative merchandise and services.''

News Summary; MONDAY, APRIL 19, 1982

Date: 19 April 1982

International Longstanding obligations to Britain on the part of the United States were reaffirmed in Buenos Aires by Secretary of State Alexander M. Haig Jr. in remarks apparently aimed at exerting pressure on Argentina in the Falkland Islands crisis. There were signs that his talks with Argentine leaders were becoming increasingly strained, and he suggested that both sides put off for now the problem of dealing with the crucial issue of sovereignty over the islands. (Page A1, Column 6.) Phone calls from 10 Downing Street to colleagues were made by Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher as anxiety increased over the continuing deadlock in the peace negotiations in Buenos Aires. The Prime Minister's urgent calls were the second time in 24 hours that she had asked for opinions of Cabinet members on the Falkland Islands crisis. (A1:3-5.)

News Summary; SUNDAY, APRIL 18, 1982

Date: 18 April 1982

International Buenos Aires was gloomy over the prospects for averting hostilities with Britain over the Falkland Islands as Secretary of State Alexander M. Haig Jr. and Argentine officials met to discuss the crisis. Senior Argentine officials and foreign diplomats doubted that a ground for compromise would be found. Argentina was adamant in its refusal to settle for anything less than full sovereignty over the Falklands. Mr. Haig ''still doesn't believe that we are willing to go to war over the principle,'' an Argentine official said. (Page 1, Column 6.) A country weekend was cut short by Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, who returned to London when it seemed that Secretary of State Alexabder M. Haig Jr.'s attempt in Buenos Aires to mediate the Falklands crisis was foundering. Mrs. Thatcher's re-turn to London was not linked to any new development, an official spokes-man said, but other sources said she felt a major turning point was ap-proaching. (1:5.)

The Region; by Richard Levine, Carlyle C. Douglas and William C. Rhodes; MUrdoch Wants To Dance, Too

Date: 18 April 1982

As the field of choices narrows, so does the distance between The Daily News and extinction. The Tribune Company of Chicago, which owns The News, last week rejected an offer by Rupert Murdoch, the owner of The New York Post, to negotiate for The News. Mr. Murdoch, who put The Post's losses at close to $20 million last year, proposed putting both newspapers under common ownership with the unions agreeing to immediate cost cuts equal to operating losses.

Ideas and Trends; by Eva Hoffman and Margot Slade; Prize-Worthy Winners of The Pulitzers

Date: 18 April 1982

The young and tragic, the old and scholarly, the middle-aged and middle-class. Last week's winners of Pulitzer Prizes in poetry, music and fiction were studies in contrasts. Sylvia Plath's reputation as an outstanding American poet was launched with the posthumous publication of ''Ariel'' in 1965, two years after her suicide in London at age 30. A second posthumous publication last November, ''The Collected Poems,'' brought her the Pulitzer and an affirmation of her gift for joining jarring images and for what one critic called ''simple, transfixing words.''
