Indicates Matter Stricken
Indicates New Matter

The House assembled at 2:00 P.M.

Deliberations were opened with prayer by the Chaplain of the House of Representatives, the Rev. Dr. Alton C. Clark as follows:

Eternal Father, as we begin the duties of this week and of this day, ladened with responsibilities, we would pray the words of the Psalmist: "Show me Your ways, O Lord; teach me Your paths. Lead me in Your truth and teach me: for You are the God of my salvation; on You do I wait all the day" (Psalm 25:4,5). Remove from us all that obstructs discerning the doing of Your will that we may know the difference between the veneer and the genuine. Direct our energies, clarify our thinking, sustain our wills. Enable us to be less concerned about being served and to be more concerned about serving others.

Walk with us and work through us until the day is done. Thank You, Lord, for this privilege of prayer.

Amen.

Pursuant to Rule 6.3, the House of Representatives was led in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America by the SPEAKER.
