wives Moslem law allows him, as
well as 40 sons, an unstated num

and 100 concubines. However, un
der Moslem law he can shed a
wife at any time by saying "I di
vorce thee" three times.

Ferial.

Little. 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.

Rangers Work Tor Order In Sirike Bound Texas Area
DAINGERFIELD,
as Hanger Lapt.
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. '
