BRIEFING

You Are What You Charge Ever coveting the indicia of professionalism, the Washington public relations persons and influence vendors have adopted the lawyers' custom of billing their clients by the hour. The result is image enhancement at its most fundamental: You are what you charge. The boldest practitioners of such self-evaluation are, not surprisingly, those with assertions of ready access to the Reagan White House. While the Capital's most distinguished lawyers book their time at $200 to $250 an hour, Robert K. Grey, the public relations man who was co-chairman of the Reagan inaugural, charges $350 an hour. Lyn Nofziger, who resigned recently as chief White House political agent to become a private consultant, weighs in at $400. Even the lawyers are envious.

BOTH SIDES TRY TO INFLUENCE REPORTS OF COMBAT

From the first shot in the fighting between Britain and Argentina in the South Atlantic, each side has in its own way tried to influence the news reports emanating from the battle area. Throughout the crisis, which began with Argentina seizing the islands on April 2, the reports to the press in Argentina have exaggerated the extent of British setbacks while discounting Argentine losses. For their part, the British have sometimes left misleading impressions and have appeared reticent to correct erroneous information. For example, on Sunday, Argentina claimed to have shot down as many as 11 British Harrier planes. But British correspondents aboard the aircraft carrier Hermes counted the planes as they left and as each returned.

A West Berlin court sentenced an East German journalist to two years in jail today after convicting him of trying to recruit the son of a West German press spokesman to spy for East Germany. The court said Hans-Joachim Kittelmann was clearly a member of the East German state security forces and had been involved in espionage activity posing as a journalist.

ANN LANDERS DIPS INTO OLD-MAIL BAG

Ann Landers, whose column of personal advice appears daily in newspapers reaching 70 million readers, said yesterday that about 30 columns this year and last contained letters or answers that were essentially unchanged from items in her column 15 years ago. The columnist said she saw no harm in recycling older material without identifying it as such or telling her editors, because she was addressing current problems with advice that had proved useful and effective. ''If I had any notion there would be a complaint or if any of my editors had asked me not to, I wouldn't have done it, and I certainly won't do it anymore,'' said Miss Landers, whose common-sense advice on topics such as marriage, health and daily living has made her one of the most widely followed columnists in the world. The practice was discovered by Barbara Sanken, an editorial researcher who prepares a column for The Pontiac (Ill.) Daily Leader, recalling events of 15, 25, 40 and 100 years ago. Mrs. Sanken, a fan of Miss Landers, said she was reading the advice column March 13 when a phrase about a woman who washed a banana after peeling it ''jumped out at me.''

In an era when political campaigns often are what people see on television, ideas have to be packed into 22-second segments, Mario M. Cuomo complains. And, he continues, Mayor Koch is very good at it. How do you combat that? ruminates Mr. Cuomo, who is running against the Mayor for the Democratic nomination for Governor. ''Maybe,'' he says, ''Governors should speak in paragraphs.'' Mr. Cuomo does that all right - long, linked paragraphs that grow into verbal essays and occasionally turn back upon themselves and ponder what they have said.

The nation's synthetic fuels industry, started with great fanfare and billions of Federal dollars less than two years ago, today stands demoralized and uncertain. Its future is jeopardized by falling oil prices, high interest rates, soaring construction costs and an Administration determined to leave energy development almost entirely to the free market. The latest blow came when the Exxon Corporation and the Tosco Corporation announced an end to their Colony Oil Shale Project in western Colorado, the centerpiece of a synthetic fuels industry that has been plagued with problems from the beginning, and whose ambitions had already been drastically scaled back. 'It's a Setback' ''It's a setback not just for the synthetic fuels industry but for our whole international economic and political strategy,'' commented Robert I. Hanfling, a Washington consultant and former synthetic fuels specialist at the Department of Energy. ''Synfuels just fell by the wayside.''

The love-hate relationship Congress has had with its budget process is undergoing its most severe test, as the lawmakers try to put together a budget for the fiscal year 1983. ''The biggest problem is that the budget process finally has teeth in it, finally has discipline,'' said Representative James R. Jones, Democrat of Oklahoma, the chairman of the Budget Committee. ''It's very difficult for a lot of politicians to submit to discipline this close to an election. A lot of people would like to get rid of the irritant.''

The economic and military sanctions imposed by the United States against Argentina have provoked South American governments far more than the accompanying American declaration of support for Britain in the Falkland Islands crisis. The eventual siding with the British was expected. The sanctions and the offer of material assistance were not and are viewed by leaders of the region as unnecessarily harsh and prejudicial. Officials based here, including American and British representatives, question why the sanctions and the pledge of military assistance were included in the policy. ''At the very least, the United States could have timed them on a staggered basis to extract some diplomatic leverage,'' said a Latin American foreign service officer.

President Reagan's ''new federalism'' proposals, greeted with applause by many state and local officials three months ago, have become entangled in the stalemate over the budget for the 1983 fiscal year. If the President and Congress cannot agree on a budget to finance existing programs, critics ask, how can they possibly restructure the programs and provide new sources of financing for the next decade? The critics include Democrats, big-city mayors and civil rights leaders. Edwin Meese 3d, counselor to the President, has recognized the magnitude of the task facing White House lobbyists. In a speech last week to the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, he said that the ''new federalism'' involved ''a radical restructuring of the functions and authority of the different levels of government.''

A drawn-out struggle for the Falkland Islands could exact a toll on United States relations with Argentina and other Latin American nations, policy analysts both in and out of Government believe. The battle for the Falklands is often portrayed in Europe as the defense by a democratic nation of its land and citizens against a military dictatorship. The complexities of the Latin American response to the crisis, by comparison, give some indication of how difficult it is to predict the extent of any damage to inter-American relations. Despite differences over policy, many analysts in Washington agree that the emotion felt by Latin Americans over the Falklands, which they call the Malvinas, cannot be overestimated and that the United States will have to take that into account in any final settlement.
