Change In Weather By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The nation's weather pattern showed only minor changes today, with scattered areas of precipita tion in the West and cloudy and fairly mild in the Eastern half of the country. A mass of cool air from the Pa cific spread eastward across the Northwest section of the country the last 24 hours. It moved inland along the North Pacific Coast and spread through the Rockies and Ny.thcrn Plains. Rain and snow accompanied the cool air eastward, with precipita tion continuing behind the cool front. Snow flurries fell in the northern Rockies and light rain sprinkled scattered areas of the Northern Plains. The rains head ed into the Lake Superior region. Rain, drizzle and showers also were reported in the Southwest and in the Central and Southern Rockies. Rainfall ranged from heavy to light over wide areas. The rain which hit broad areas east of the Mississippi River moved out over the Atlantic. How ever, remnants of the wet belt were reported during the night in parts of eastern Virginia and North Carolina. A little warming occurred in the Mississippi Valley and the South ern Plains and generally mild au tumn weather was indicated from the Plains eastward to the Atlan tic. Skies were partly cloudy in most areas. Fair to partly cloudy weather prevailed along the West Coast.

Judge Alta King sentenced the Klansman to 20 years imprison mentthe maximum sentence, He was convicted as the "boss man" of a Klan detail assigned to test the courage of another Klansman, B. A. Floyd, who was to have been promoted to captain in tne Wan lair. After the jury s verdict was read, Pritchett's attorney filed no tice of appeal, and King set bond at 520.000. "This is one of the worst things ever tweome betore my bench, said King. "I have found nothing in the testimony to justify less than the limit." Pritchett, colled the grand Cy clops of the Klan organization to which he belonged, and five other white men were indicted on a charge of kidnaping a 33-year-old Negro handyman, Judge Edward Aaron last Labor Day. , Aaron said he was taken to a Klan meeting place, where he was beaten and then castrated while he lay unconscious. Two of the six Klansmen charged with the act testified against Pritchett. They are Wil liam J. Miller and John Griffin, both clerks in a supermarket. j They related that Aaron was chosen at random, to serve as an j example to impress integration ; leaders in the Birmingham area, i All six white men were charged 1 with mayhem and assault with in-! tent to murder, but the second , charge against Pritchett was dropped at the request of the pros edition. Others to face trial besides Griffin, Miller and Floyd are Jesse Mabry and Grover McCul- j lough. Floyd, Mabry and McCul-! lough worked for fabricating, air-' craft and construction companies. Mabry was one of six men ac-j cused in an attack on singer Nat i King) Cole as the Negro enter-1 tainer sang on the stage of Munic- j ipal Auditorium last year. j Ir that case, Mabry and three , others were fined $50 on disorder ly conduct charges. Two others pleaded guilty to assault and were fined $100. Tex. tfi Tex Jay Banks, backed by armed reinforcements, today vowed to maintain order in this strike-torn east Texas area. Rangers and State Patrolmen, were spread over a 10-county area surrounding the Lone Star Steel Co. plant, local point of a bitter, six-week-old wildcat strike. "This is an explosive situation," Banks said, standing outside his command post in a motel here, "but we plan to take any action necessary to keep order." bporadic bombings, brawls and gunfire have rocked the area; since the walkout started Sept. 21. ' The dispute centers on company policies in filling job vacancies. "We're pretty sure most of the violence stems from the strike," said Banks, soft-talking, 6-feet 3 peace officer with one notch on the huge pistol he carries. Banks, 45, a riot buster sea soned by Texas' integration out breaks, emphasized his forces were present only to help local authorities. Five additional Rangers and 16 more State Patrolmen were dis patched to his command last night after an appeal to Gov. Price Daniel by Carl Estes, pub lisher of the Longview News- Journal. The reinforcements gave Banks a total of 10 Rangers. "The bitterness of the strikers stems from the pocketbook," said a Daingerfield merchant, who asked not to be named. "They are sore at the guys who didn't walk out with them and those that later went back to work." Company spokesman say the plant had a work force of about 3.500 when the strike started. Nearly 700 men refused to join the unsanctioned strike, and about 600 have quit picket lines to return to work. Around 950 new employes have been hired. "We will rehire all but the strike leaders and agitators as long as jobs are available," said E. B. Germany, Lone Star Steel presi dent. . United Steelworkers spokesmen have claimed 1,500 to 2,300 men still are idle. One stumbling block to a settle ment was a union protest against the company's offer to let strik ers go back to work as new ertv ployes without seniority. Union spokesmen refused to disclose to newsmen the identity of strike leaders. The union has been issuing scrip to striking members for necessities. A Ranger and four State Patrol men were dispatched to nearby Avinger, Tex., last night to dis perse about 30 men who officers said were setting off fireworks. Baiws said two of the men be came unruly and were arrested for disturbing the peace. There was no gunfire. Streets in other towns of this area were virtually deserted last night. Apprehensive parents kept their children from traditional ob servances of Halloween. The night before a mysterious blast shook an area near the steel plant. No damage was found. Rangers yesterday arrested three men in the beating of two union workers who returned to their jobs after first joining in the strike.
