The United States Ambassador to France expressed regret today to the French Government over an article that appeared in an American newspaper, and said he would ask the United States Attorney General's Office to determine how the newspaper had come to use classified embassy cablegrams in the article. Ambassador Evan Galbraith made the statement after publication of a report from New York in Friday's issue of The Wall Street Journal. The article reported that cablegrams to the State Department bearing the ambassador's signature told of French Government pressure on American banks to underwrite a $4 billion loan to France. Mr. Galbraith's expression of regret about the article was announced in a communique issued this afternoon by the Ministry of Economy and Finance. The ministry also rejected any allegations that France had placed any constraint on American banks.

Mario Cuomo and Lewis Lehrman were on WABC-TV Tuesday night and Wednesday night. Each explained how he would curb violent crime if elected Governor of New York. What was unusual about their appearances was that they came during the nightly news program, rather than in the commercials with which both men have been bombarding viewers in the four weeks since they won their party's nominations. The candidates and most surveys of voters agree that television is the medium on which most people rely for their political information. But until this week, more than halfway through the general election campaign, voters have been getting very little political coverage in the most watched 6 P.M. and 11 P.M. news programs.and 11 P.M. news programs.

Back in the 1950's, the American textile industry put pressure on the Government for protection against cheap imports. The Kennedy Administration gave in, setting ''temporary'' quotas that have not only lasted to this day, but have become part of an elaborate international market-sharing arrangement involving 40 countries. Now, many analysts see the new agreement for ''temporary,'' three-year quotas covering European steel exports to the United States as fitting a similar pattern. The agreement, which was announced Thursday, is likely to set off what one Common Market official described as ''a ripple of protectionism around the world.'' The Europeans, in order to sell the steel they can no longer ship to the United States, said they would reduce steel imports from other countries.

International The U.S. and Arab proposals for peace in the Middle East along with United Nations Security Council resolutions could be the basis for ''peace and coexistence'' in the region, King Hassan II of Morocco said after a meeting in Washington with President Reagan. The King, who is the leader of an Arab League delegation, did not specifically define what he meant by ''coexistence,'' nor did he mention Israel, but a senior State Department official said that his choice of words was important. Mr. Reagan said the meeting with the delegation was ''an important milestone'' toward ''a common objective, a just and lasting peace in the Middle East,'' and emphasized the importance of a negotiating process. (Page 1, Column 6.) Elections in Northern Ireland strengthened the political arm of the outlawed Irish Republican Army. Incomplete returns gave Sinn Fein two more seats, for a total of five, in the 78-member assembly. The gains were widely regarded as a pyschological victory for the party, which entered only 12 candidates, all in urban areas where Roman Catholics are concentrated, which campaigned on a slogan of ''a ballot in one hand and a gun in the other.''
