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:

Eternal Father, bowing before You in this hallowed moment of prayer, we acknowledge our dependence upon You and offer our thanks for all Your blessings. We are disturbed that there is so much to be done, burdened by so many cares and concerns, tempted to give way to cynicism and disheartened by our failure to do what we ought to do. Sustain us, then, by Your presence and stengthen us by Your power that these demanding days not wear us down or break our determination to do that which pleases our Heavenly Father. Keep us, we pray, truehearted, wholehearted, faithful and loyal.

Make clear the assurance of Your Word: "The Lord is the strength of my life" (Psalm 27:1). Amen.
