House of Representatives
The House met at 12 o'clock noon.
The Right Reverend Monsignor Mau-
rice King, pastorof St. Peter's Church,
Washington, D.C., offered the following
prayer:
0 God, we believe in Thee-strengthen
our faith. All our hopes are in Thee, do
Thou secure them. We love Thee-
teach us to love Thee daily more and
more. We are sorry for our offenses-
increase our sorrow.
We adore Thee as our first beginning;
we aspire after Thee as our last end. We
give Thee thanks as our constant bene-
factor, we call upon Thee as our sov-
ereign protector.
Vouchsafe, 0 God, to conduct us by
Thy wisdom, to restrain us by Thy jus-
tice, to comfort us by Thy mercy, to de-
fend us by Thy power.
We call upon Thee to enlighten our
understanding, to strengthen our will, to
purify us in body and soul.
Give us strength, 0 Lord, to expiate
our offenses, to overcome our tempta-
tions, to subdue our passions, and to ac-
quire the virtues proper to our state in
life.
Fill our hearts with tender affection
for Thy goodness, hatred of our sins, love
of our neighbor and contempt of worldly
vanity.
Teach us to be submissive to our su-
periors, courteous to our inferiors, faith-
ful to our friends and charitable to our
enemies.
Assist us to ovg~come sensuality by
mortification, avarice by almsdeeds and
anger by meekness.
Make us prudent in our undertakings,
cqurageous in dangers, patient in afflic-
tion, and humble in prosperity.
Let our conscience be ever upright, our
exterior modest, our conversation edify-
ing, our deportment honest.
Assist us that we may continually
labor to overcome the corruption of
human nature, to correspond with Thy
grace, to keep the' Commandments, and
to work out our salvation.
Discover to us, 0 God, the nothingness
of this world, the greatness of Heaven,
the shortness of. time, length of eternity,
through Christ, our Lord. Amen.

get-well card we had in the Speaker's
lobby during the last few days was sent
to ALBERT THOMAS last Friday. I would
like to read a note which came from Mrs.
Thomas to my office this morning:
DEAR EDDIE: It is most difficult for me to
express Albert's great thrill and apprecia-
tion for the tremendous get-well card. To
be remembered by you and his other col-
leagues touched us both deeply. It was such
a surprise and great tonic for him.
In all the years ALBERT and I have been in
Washington we have never known this to be
done. It will be historic.
I am enclosing a newspaper clipping from
the Houston Post and this was carried in
other papers.
Please accept ourthanks and express to
each and everyone our sincere appreciation
and what a great privilege it is to serve with
these great men.
With each day ALBERT is gaining strength
and the doctors are pleased with his progress.
ALBERT joins me in extending our warm
personal regards and best wishes to all.
sincerely,

RELIEFROM[ PRA SIONS OF THE
FIREARMS ACT
Mr. MILLS. Mr. Speaker, I ask unan-
imous consent for the immediate consid-
eration of the bill (H.R. 9570) to amend
the Federal Firearms Act to authorize
the Secretary of the Treasury to relieve
applicants from certain provisions of the
act if he determines that the granting
of relief would not be contrary to the
public interest, and that the applicant
would not be likely to conduct his opera-
tions in an unlawful manner, which was
reported unanimously by the Committee
on Ways and Means.
The Clerk read the title of the bill.
The SPEAKER. Is there objection to
the request of the gentleman from Ar-
kansas?
Mr. BYRNES of Wisconsin. Mr.
Speaker, reserving the light to object,
and I will not object, I do so in order
that the House might have a full ex-
planation of this legislation. I now yield
to the chairman of the committee, the
gentleman from Arkansas [Mr. MILLS].
Mr. MILLS. I thank my friend from
Wisconsin.
Mr. Speaker, the purpose of this bill
can be rather :imply stated, I believe.
First, however, let me emphasize that
the bill Is relatively narrow in scope and
it IS unrelated to and not a part of the
broad administration firearms control
bill on which the Committee on Ways
and Means has just conducted hearings.
Mr. Speaker, the problem to which this
bill is addressed is of an entirely differ-
ent nature. Under present law; in fact,
