turers and farmers in this country. and tie
War Department is being besieged daily by
Senators and Representatives whoe cen

General Otis cabled some time ago that
the ports of Northern Luzon woaid be
opened Jsnuary /. and all the hemp ports
would be opened by February l. Since that
time he has not reported the ore-ing OF
any ports, and the President and Cabinet
have become impatient over the delay, and
al Tuesdays meeting Of the CAbinct Secre-
tary Wilson stated that unless the hemp
ports we're soon opened the price of binder
twine would advance to such high figure
that the Western farmers would be greatly
Handicapped in harvesting their crops.
The Cabinet decided that General Ois
should be again cahled TO hurry the opening
OF the ports.
