Sec. 71.82  Stipulations at hearing.

    If there has been no prehearing conference under Sec. 71.66, the 
administrative law judge shall at the beginning of the hearing, require 
that the parties attempt to arrive at such stipulations as will 
eliminate the necessity of taking evidence with respect to allegations 
of fact concerning which there is no substantial dispute. The 
administrative law judge should take similar action, where it appears 
appropriate, throughout the hearing and should call and conduct any 
conferences which he deems advisable with a view to the simplification, 
clarification, and disposition of any of the issues involved.
