In a memorial service this afternoon, William Loeb was consigned to his Lord by a Baptist preacher, and the question in New Hampshire now is what his passage will mean to the secular affairs of the state he dominated for 35 years but never lived in. The death last Sunday of the publisher of The Manchester Union Leader and Sunday News at the age of 75 is the biggest local story here in years. The region of New England is awash in the legend of his vitriolic power and in speculation about what changes his absence might bring. There has been no vital television station in New Hampshire, and the only statewide newspaper was William Loeb's. His critics say that the state's political, educational and religious leaders were left intimidated, and its treasury on the verge of bankruptcy for lack of broad-based taxes, by his long use of this forum to trumpet his highly conservative philosophy, to frame the issues of the day and to make cuttingly personal front-page editorial attacks on those he opposed.

The Federal Communications Commission today urged Congress to abolish the rules that compel broadcasters to provide air time to politicians, opportunities to reply to attacks and to examine opposing sides of significant events. For decades, radio and television broadcasters have complained about the rules, which they say interfere with their operations and editorial decisions in ways unknown to newspaper editors. It is doubtful whether Congress will agree to the whole package, but the F.C.C.'s views reveal much about the orientation of the commission's new members. They seem much more responsive to the broadcasting industry's desires than the F.C.C. during the Carter years.

At the same time that Pakistan formally accepted terms of the United States military sales and aid package yesterday, the Government in Islamabad summoned the Indian Ambassador, Natwar Singh, and presented him with a proposal for talks on troop reduction along the border and on the possibility of a nonaggression agreement. The two events, obviously related, underscore Pakistan's sensitivity that as the arms supply relationship with the United States is being resumed, India is stepping up bellicose language aimed at its western neighbor. ''There seems to have been a progressive erosion of restraints,'' commented Abdus Sattar, the Pakistani Ambassador here, as he discussed what he regards as the unwarranted fomenting of a war psychosis. In Islamabad, Mr. Sattar's superiors insist that while they have made every effort to inform India of their defense needs and wishes, the Indian Government has merely brushed aside these gestures and criticized the purchase of F-16 fighter aircraft from the United States as representing a real menace to India and touching off a costly arms race on the subcontinent.

The first salvos of the long-anticipated debate on the sale of Awacs planes to Saudi Arabia have now been heard, and they seem to have put the Reagan Administration on the defensive. By making public the names of more than half of the Senate who favor disapproving the sale, the opposition has forced the Administration to decide whether to continue to press the issue to a vote or to seek an early face-saving compromi se. It is still too early to predict with certainty what will happen next, but the strength of the opposition has seemed to alarm the Administration, which had apparently not counted on so many senators coming forward in opposition before the Administration had had a chance to explain its case in detail. Secretary of State Alexander M. Haig Jr., who has been the first senior Administration official to speak at length publicly about the proposed sale of Airborne Warning and Control System planes, has issued a series of warnings about the implications for American foreign policy if the deal is not sustained by Congress.

New York state and city officials are increasingly realizing that they must shift their emphasis from building new projects to restoring their existing transportation, water and other basic facilities if their economies are to survive. That assessment was driven home today by economists and public officials at the opening of a two-day conference here intended to focus attention on a growing public crisis: that many of the basic facilities provided by government, constructed in the early part of the century or before, are rapidly reaching the end of their useful lives. The conference was called by Speaker Stanley Fink of the State Assembly, a Brooklyn Democrat. He described the condition of New York's physical plant as ranging from ''very bad to worse.''
