action” on regional realignment until the issue has been aired before the subcommittee which is part of the larger Senate Agriculture and Forestry Committee OPPOSING FORCES Forces opposing the regional realignment predict that the Senate hearing will have a great deal of influence on whether or not Congress will continue to prohibit use of for the funding allocations reorganization of the Forest Service Last week a joint House-Senat- e conference agreed to include prohibitive language in the supplemental appropriations bill that blocked the Forest Service for using any of that money for realigning regions or transferring personnel And Sen Frank E Moss indicated that similar stipulations will be included in the Fiscal Year 1974 appropriations act — pending the outcome of the hearing Wednesday PURSE STRINGS Since Congress holds the purse strings — and it will take more than $5 million to accomplish the realignment — the hearings could be the vital factor in forcing the Department of Agriculture to abandon the reorganization plan If the realignment goes ahead as scheduled an estimated 360 Service permanent would be abolished positions 325 at the about including office and 35 at the regional range experiment station Forest Service officials indicated they would retain a “zone service center” here but administration of all Utah’s National Forests would be assumed by the regional office in Denver Other Intermountain Region forests would be carved up offices in among regional Seattle and San Francisco THREE STATES Regional officials of the Forest Service indicate that abolishment of the regional office will carry a $18 million price tag — and that comes in the wake of a service-wid- e cutback budget D-Ut- ah Forest that already has necessitated a 25 per cent personnel reduction in the Ogden office to be completed no later than Dec 31 of this year Congressional delegates from the three states to be most drastically affected by the realignment have also requested a General Accounting Office audit of the reorganization plan and may introduce this data at the Senate hearing On Shooting A county attorney’s inquest into the shooting death of a
