PROCEEDINGS AND DEBATES OF THE 93d CONGRESS, SECOND SESSION

Vol. 120      WASHINGTON, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 13, 1974            No. 33

House of Representatives

The House met at 12 o'clock noon.
The Chaplain, 'Rev. Edwarq G. Latch,
D.D., offered the following prayer:
Come ye and let us go up to the moun-
tain of the Lord; and He will teach us
His ways and we will walk in His paths.-
Isaiah 2: 3.
Eternal God, our Father, who hast
opened the gates of a new day-we lift
our hearts unto Thee in grateful praise
for Thy goodness to us. We confess that
in our enjoyment of Thy gifts we often
forget the giver and because of the
abundance of Thy blessings we fail to
appreciate the greatness of Thy good-
ness. Help us to keep alive within us a
continuous spirit of gratitude -and to
remember that though at times we do
forsake Thee, Thou dost never forsake
US.
Grant unto us and unto our people the
realization that in these dark days of
discouragement   and    disillusionment
Thou art with us endeavoring to lead us
in the ways of truth and give to each one
of us the firm faith that right will tri-
umph over wrong, goodness over evil, and
love over hate.
Therefore, let us run with patience the
race that is set before us, looking unto
Thee who art the God and Father of us
all.
In Thy holy name we pray. Amen.
