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:

Lord God of hosts, concerned about the millions all over the earth yet concerned about each of us as though we were Your only child, be the constant Companion of these who legislate for the welfare of this State and its citizens. You know the clamor of voices in their ears, the constant tugging at their sleeves, the small voices of those without prestige or power, the conversations of pressure groups, even the timid whispers of timid voices. Amid all the den of these varied voices, give, O Lord, to these Your servants the willingness to take time to hear Your voice within their consciences knowing then that all people will be served fairly and in keeping with Your will for Your children.

Amen.

Pursuant to Rule 6.3, the House of Representatives was led in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America by the SPEAKER.
