                                 PRAYER

  Reverend Gene Hemrick, St. Joseph's Catholic Church, Washington, 
D.C., offered the following prayer:
  In the Cox corridor of the House of Representatives a quote by 
William Jennings Bryan reads: ``Our Government conceived in Freedom and 
Purchased with Blood can be preserved only by Constant Vigilance.''
  Lord, we pray that You bless our Congress with the constant vigilance 
needed to ensure peace and harmony in our country and throughout the 
world.
  Amen.
