The sharp Israeli thrust into west Beirut, coming so quickly after President Reagan's blunt warnings to Israel to uphold the cease-fire in Lebanon, underscores Mr. Reagan's frustrating failure for more than a year to find a way to restrain Israeli military actions. High officials say the President and his inner circle are particularly disturbed that the Israeli assault came at the very moment that Philip C. Habib, the special envoy, felt he was on the verge of striking a deal for withdrawal of the estimated 6,000 Palestinian fighters in west Beirut. Some of the President's advisers are fearful that the Israelis - or perhaps Defense Minister Ariel Sharon operating independently - may be deliberately undercutting the Habib mission. The Most Obvious Leverage The President's problem is that he needs strong leverage to force Prime Minister Menachem Begin into realizing what American officials consider the political costs of an all-out assault on Beirut or other actions that would shatter all hopes of negotiations now without so offending the sensitivities of the Israeli leader that he would give the final go-ahead.

After 17 months on the air, ''The CBS Evening News With Dan Rather'' seems to have consolidated its position as the most popular evening newscast. During the last five weeks, CBS has had a lead in the audience-popularity ratings over ''World News Tonight'' on ABC by nearly 2 ratings points. For the same period a year ago, the margin was three-tenths of a point. ''The NBC Nightly News,'' on which John Chancellor, the anchor, was replaced with Tom Brokaw on April 5, is running nearly half a point behind last year.

President Daniel arap Moi, who appears to have weathered Kenya's first attempted coup since the East African nation became independent in 1963, speaks often of his country's special need for domestic unity. ''Tribalism,'' the 57-year-old former school teacher has said at countless ribbon-cuttings and other ceremonies over the last few years, ''can be a menace to a young nation like Kenya.'' But at the same time, Mr. Moi, who has served as President since the death of Jomo Kenyatta in 1978, owes his office in large part to tribalism: In a nation where the Kikuyu tribal group is dominant in almost every area of life and the members of the Luo tribe are their chief - and often bitter - rivals, Mr. Moi is neither Kikuyu nor Luo, but a member of the small Tugen tribe of the minority Kalenjin group, one of Kenya's 70 distinct tribal groupings. It was in recognition of this tribal diversity - and the fear that most of the tribes felt for the dominant Kikuyus long headed by Mr. Kenyatta - that the Kenyan Constitution reserved the vice presidency for a non-Kikuyu.

International Israeli forces thrust into west Beirut along two main crossing points with east Beirut. The offensive by armored units advanced under the cover of heavy artillery fire. The Israeli strike followed a day of intense negotiations in which significant progress was reported on an evacuation of the 6,000 Palestinian fighters trapped in west Beirut. (Page A1, Column 6.) The State Department said the reported movement of Israeli tanks into west Beirut directly threatened the peace efforts of the special United States envoy, Philip C. Habib. A department spokeman said that ''any military movements which hinder Mr. Habib's efforts to bring about a solution to the Beirut crisis are unhelpful.'' Earlier, Israel's Foreign Minister, Yitzhak Shamir, accused leaders of the Palestine Liberation Organization of ''deliberately dragging negotiations.'' (A1:3.)

International Israeli forces rained shellfire all across west Beirut as Israeli armored units pushed toward Palestinian refugee camps and neighborhoods on the southern outskirts of the city. The state-run Beirut radio said civilian casualties were ''in the hundreds.'' The daylong pounding by Israeli planes, gunboats and artillery brought to a halt the American-led negotiations for a peaceful withdrawal of the 6,000 Palestinian fighters trapped in west Beirut. (Page A1, Column 6.) President Reagan appealed directly to Prime Minister Menachem Begin to observe a cease-fire in Beirut. Mr. Reagan made the appeal as the Administration weighed the possibility of imposing unspecified sanctions against Israel in the deepening Lebanon crisis. (A1:3-5.)

The United States International Trade Commission ruled today that American industry might suffer economic injury because of Canadian Government export credits that helped Bombardier Inc. win a contract to build 825 subway cars for New York City. The preliminary ruling means the I.T.C. and Commerce Department will continue investigations that could result in penalty duties on the Canadian-built cars.
