                                 prayer

  The Chaplain, the Reverend Richard C. Halverson, D.D., offered the 
following prayer:
  Let us pray:
  ``Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free''--John 
8:32.
  Lord God of righteousness and justice, there is in each of us a 
spirit of self-interest which inclines us to pragmatism as a way of 
life. Protect the Senators from the subtlety of self-deception. Give to 
each wisdom to examine his plans in the light of Thy truth--and grant 
courage to do what his God-enlightened conscience dictates.
  For the sake of God and country, we pray. Amen.
