Indicates Matter Stricken
Indicates New Matter

The House assembled at 10:00 A.M.

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

We thank You, Lord God, that You are our Father. Make us to hear at all times Your divine voice which guides, blesses and reassures. Make us to know that we are always under the scrutiny of Your all-seeing eye. Spare us from cleverness above charity, humor above honor. Make us to know that in the daily duties placed in our hands our effectiveness depends on the degree of surrender we make of our self-centered ways to the final control of Your will in which we alone find peace.

Hear us, Lord, as we pray to our God more ready to hear our prayers than we are to pray. Amen.

After corrections to the Journal of the proceedings of yesterday, the SPEAKER ordered it confirmed.
