An official sat in his office at the Government's Relief and Rehabilitation Commission recently, answering questions about why, in this time of severe drought and famine, Ethiopia is still selling livestock and other food products to customers abroad. The official said that none of the goods being exported would be of much use to those in the camps - famished people need enriched grains, not meat and hides - and that Ethiopia had to earn foreign currency to pay for many vital imports. Then, his temper rising, he made a point seldom mentioned in discussions of this country's plight: ''Listen, we've got nine million people or so who are starving or close to it. That still leaves more than 30 million Ethiopians who are not starving. Their lives can't just come to a full stop.''

Major League Previews New and exciting as they may be, the Mets are not quite ready to win the National League East, says Joseph Durso. His pick is the Cubs, who won the division last year only to lose to the San Diego Padres in the playoff. If the Cubs win the division, they would most likely find a familiar opponent, the Padres. Murray Chass likes the Toronto Blue Jays in the American League East and the Yankees to finish fifth. In the West, the Minnesota Twins, once a power in the division, may have enough to return to prominence.

When the construction of Taino Towers was approved by the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development in 1971, it was viewed as more than just another rent-subsidized, low-income housing project. It was to be an enclave of hope in East Harlem, offering the poor not only decent apartments, but also such amenities as terraces, a swimming pool, a theater and an auditorium for community activities.
