An Arizona scientist who traded in stock of G. D. Searle & Company because he knew that the company's artificial sweetener would be the subject of a negative report on the ''CBS Evening News'' says the widening attention focused on his transactions is a ''smokescreen'' to divert attention from the merits of the debate about the safety of the sweetener.

Senator Gary Hart put together his surprising upset in New Hampshire Tuesday by working on an electorate that a New York Times/CBS News Poll showed to be younger, better educated, better off, more liberal, more white, more critical of President Reagan and more politically independent than likely Democratic primary voters elsewhere in the nation.

Despite the recent defeats of the Lebanese Army and the transfer of United States marines from Beirut to ships offshore, American Army trainers have resumed instructing new soldiers for a fighting force loyal to the Government of President Amin Gemayel.

Date: 01 March 1984
With reporters rarely allowed to visit the front in the war between Iran and Iraq, the official radio broadcasts of those countries are a source of news. Here is a sampling of broadcasts today from the Iraqi and Iranian Government radio stations, as transcribed and translated by the Foreign Broadcast Information Service of the Central Intelligence Agency.

Pinpoint the Export Controls
Date: 01 March 1984
The cold warrior and the free-marketeer in Ronald Reagan collide head on in the matter of strategic exports to the Soviet Union. One part of the President wants to avoid helping an adversary. The other wants American industry freed of regulation. Neither absolute makes good policy.
JAPAN'S DEFENSE POLICY

The new Japanese budget put forward in January may not significantly speed up the steady pace with which Japan has been improving its defense forces. But there will be no slowing of our defense efforts, despite considerable austerity in all other aspects of the budget. What's more, this military effort is only one aspect of Japan's comprehensive security policy, which rests on a triad of improvements in military defense, active diplomacy and economic cooperation. Recent years have brought important changes in the Japanese public's perceptions of its security needs. In the 1950's, barely half of all Japanese thought it necessary for the country to be able to defend itself. Today, more than 80 percent do. As late as a decade ago, only four Japanese in 10 supported the Japan-United States security treaty. Today, nearly two- thirds do, while only 13 percent favor ending it.
PRESERVE MILITARY PART OF ISRAEL-LEBANON PACT

The May 17 Israeli-Lebanese withdrawal agreement is clearly a dead letter. President Amin Gemayel has reportedly decided to abandon the accord, but it would be a mistake to renounce it entirely. Instead, the two countries should take steps to separate its crucial military provisions from the political sections that have offended Lebanese Moslems and their Syrian allies. The agreement was dead long before the collapse of the Lebanese Army some three weeks ago. From the very outset, the Lebanese Government has been unable to implement the accord. Unlike the Camp David accords, this agreement imposed restrictive conditions on Israel's negotiating partner. Several Lebanese factions opposed it, and there was little chance of its acceptance by Damascus. It offered nothing to encourage the Syrians to withdraw, and American diplomats were relying on the Saudis to arrange such a withdrawal later.
OUR RISKY BASES IN HONDURAS

Despite the claims of four Republican Senators just back from Honduras that United States bases there are only temporary, the evidence clearly suggests that the bases are permanent - and a danger to our foreign policy interests.
What to Do After Lebanon: Nothing
Date: 29 February 1984
As The Economist warns with cousinly affection, how Americans now think about the Middle East may be more important than anything they recently tried to do there. The British journal begs us not to confuse a punch on the nose with the end of the world - and to distinguish clearly between failing in Beirut and an unfailing commitment to truly vital interests like Israel and oil.
