Indicates Matter Stricken
Indicates New Matter

The Senate assembled at 11:00 A.M., the hour to which it stood adjourned and was called to order by the PRESIDENT.

A quorum being present the proceedings were opened with a devotion by the Chaplain as follows:

Beloved, let us hear... anew... the immortal words recorded in the Gospel of St. Matthew (22:21):

"And He saith unto them, `Whose is this

image and superscription?' They say unto

Him, `Caesar's'. Then saith he unto them,

`RENDER THEREFORE UNTO CAESAR THE THINGS THAT

ARE CAESAR'S: AND UNTO GOD THE THINGS THAT

ARE GOD'S'".
Let us pray.

God of our fathers, as we prepare our agendas, and bring our problem-issues into focus, grant to us all such graces of the Spirit, such attitudes of mind, and such personal talents, as will enable us... together... to address the problems of our people in such ways that will bring more light and less heat, more hope and less worry, so that our common life may be qualitatively advanced.

But whether our achievements be large or small, help us... each day... to be faithful in doing our duty as we are led to see our duty... to our Country and our God.

Amen.

The PRESIDENT called for Petitions, Memorials, Presentments of Grand Juries and such like papers.

Doctor Of The Day

Senator MARTSCHINK introduced Dr. J. Chris Hawk, III of Charleston, Doctor of the Day.
