rental rain marked Ethiopia'S cele-
bration today of the mascal feast,
traditional ceremony in observance
of the end of the rainy season.
1t was almost a cloudburst. with
three inches of rain in the central
square where the modernized per-
sonal army of Emperor Halle Sell
lassie marched in review. Observers
agreed that the rainy season is
likely to extend later than usual,
and that Italy may not be able to
start war for two weeks or more.
The scattered showers which pre-
ceded the military review, and later
turned into a driving rain, brought
smiles to the faces of the Ethio-
plans, who recalled an ancient adage
that IF the mascal fires are
quenched by rain, the grain will
flourish"
