House of Representatives
WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 18, 1965
The House met at 12 o'clock noon.
The Chaplain, Rev. Bernard Braskamp,
D.D., prefaced his prayer with these
words of Scripture: Psalm 121: The Lord
is thy keeper, the Lord is thy shade upon
thy right hand.
Almighty God, whose goodness never
fails and whose truth does not grow old,
we beseech Thee to sanctify us, cleansing
all the stains of sin from our hearts and
the darkness from our minds.
Order our whole life, our thoughts and
aspirations in accord with Thy will and
bring them into harmony with Thy holy
plans and create within us those desires
which Thou dost delight to satisfy.
May there arise within us strength,
healing, and victory, overcoming all con-
fusion of purpose and that self-love
which keeps us from the larger life of
service and sacrifice to which we have
been called.
Humbly we offer our prayer, asking
for nothing that we do not ask for others
whose lives are haunted by hardship and
struggle for the bare necessities that
they labor for.
In Christ's name we pray. Amen.

ESTABLISHING DEPART74ENT OF
HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOP-
MENT
Mr. FASCELL. Mr. Speaker. I ask
unanimous consent to take from the
Speaker's table the bill (Hut. 6927) to
establish a Department of Housing and
Urban Development, and for other pur-
poses. with amendments of the Senate
thereto, disagree to the amentiments and
request a conference with tht Senate.
The Clerk read the title of the bill.
The SPEAKER. Is there objection to
the request of the gentleman from Flor-
ida? The Chair hears none, and ap-
points the following confer[ es: Messrs.
DAWSON, HOLr'IELD, FASCE.L. REl eS.
ROSENTHAL, ERLENBORN, and WVYDLER.
CORRECTION OP THE )?ECORD
Mr. OLSON of Minr. esota. Mr.
Speaker, I ask unanimous consent to
make a correction In my ren.arks in the
CONGRESSIONAL RECORD of yesterday, Au-
gust 17, 1965, page 19947, pas agraph No.
4, line 14, where it reads:
I think a transfer and selection base al-
lowed here is going to result d.sfinitely in a
kind of milk tax.
This line should be changed to read:
I think the transfer and axle of bases
allowed is going to result In what might be
referred to as am Ilk tax.
The SPEAKER. Without *jectioll, it
is so ordered.
There was no objection.
CORRECTION OF THE F:ECORD
Mr. FINDLEY. Mr. Spe aker, I ask
unanimous consent that the permanent
RECORD be corrected on page 19976 near
the bottom of the second cohuun to read
as follows:
Mr. FINDLEY. The gentleman said that the
consumers have benefited under this cotton
program. Looking at the "Cotxn Situation
Report" from the Consumer and Marketing
Service of USDA I find that the price on 20
cotton constructions-the in.lex showing
product prices-has gone up each and every
single month since the so-cal ed one-price
cotton program went into operation. On
the other side of this some sta tistlcal table
from USDA I find that each an.l every single
month the mill margin-that 1s the gross
profit of textile mills--has go ie U. This
despite the fact they had the pr ce advantage
of this program, which is costing the tax-
payers somewhere around 4900 million a year.
I think it is shameful we have to consider
any variation of a program which so ad-
versely affects the taxpayers of the United
States.
And on the same page correct the line
reading "the buggy whip" to read "the
buggy whip industry."
The SPEAKER. Is there objection to
the request of the gentleman from
Illinois?
There was no objection.
CALL OF THE HOUSE
Mr. GRIFFIN. Mr. Speaker, I make
the point of order that a quorum is not
present.
The SPEAKER. Evidently, a quorum
is not present.
Mr. ALBERT. Mr. Speaker, I move a
can of the House.
A call of the House was ordered.
The Clerk called the roll, and the fol-
lowing Members failed to answer to their
