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:

O Lord our God, we know not what this day has in store for us, but of one thing we are certain: that You are always ready to supply the support commensurate with our needs. So even when we face rocks of temptation, the quicksands of cynicism, the danger of destiny, we could be unafraid because of Your power and strength to sustain us. Be with us in our silence and in our speech, in our haste and in our leisure, in companionship and in solitude, at the beginning of this day's Session and at its end.

Crown our every effort with You saying, "well done, good and faithful servant." Amen.
