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:

Almighty and eternal God, without Whom no one can live wisely or well, reveal to us Your will and show us Your way. Enlighten our understanding, purify our desires, strengthen every worthwhile purpose, and keep us diligent in the demanding duties of this day. We pray for our families whose affection and understanding make life more worth living, for our friends whose friendliness make our existence a joy, for our Nation where freedom is a rich blessing.

From this altar of prayer, send us to our tasks "to do justly, to love mercy and to walk humbly with our God." Amen.
