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 surely to be found by those who love You, and heard by those who hush the chatter of the world and in quietness listen with trustful hearts. Forbid that when great opportunities are flaming before us that we should be blinded by the smoke of our own selfish campfires. When great challenges beckon us, save us from giving ourselves to the dead past. May the world be better tomorrow because we have lived and worked today.

And to You, Father God, we give our praise and thanksgiving. Amen.
