The forest service is contemplat ing cutting down the number of cattle permitted to graze on the northern park of the forest any where from 30 to 81 per cent, and the cattlemen are embattled against the reduction. Congressmen Clair Engle of Cali fornia and Walter 8. Barring of Nevada are conducting the hear ings.

Other cattlemen appealing against the forest service proposals this morning were Luke Miller. Harold Parman and Merrill Ward. The forest service men were to have their inning this afternoon.
