The VICE PRESIDENT. The resolutions will be read. The resolutions (S.

WILLIAM J. HARRIS, late a Senator from the State of Georgia. Resolved, That a committee of fifteen Senators be appointed by the Vice President to take order for superintending the funeral of the deceased Senator. Resolved, That the Secretary communicate these resolutions to the House of Representatives and transmit a copy thereof to the family of the deceased. Mr. GEORGE. Mr. President, at a later date I shall ask the Senate to properly notice the passing of my distinguished colleague, but as a further mark of respect at this time I move that the Senate do now adjourn. The motion was unanimously agreed to; and the Senate (at 4 o'clock and 50 minutes p. m.) adjourned until to-morrow, Tuesday, April 19, 1932, at 12 o'clock meridian. TUESDAY, April 19, 1932. The Chaplain, Rev. ZeBarney T. Phillips, D. D., offered the following prayer: O Savior of the world, who by Thy death hast destroyed death and by Thy rising to life again hast restored to us everlasting life; in this hour of deep bereavement be Thou our all in all, that amid these wild waters of the world we may be rescued by Thy assurance, that in the light of Thy countenance despondency may flee away. Enable us to summon now the great resources of the soul-memory, imagination, faith, hope, love-that we may live even more constantly in the companionship of the noble spirit of him whom Thou has called to be at rest with Thee. Deal tenderly, O Christ, with the dear ones whose grief and poignant sorrow we are permitted to share; enfold them in Thy loving arms, comfort them with the sense of Thy indwelling, give to them that peace which passeth understanding. And as we tread the aisles of earth, these homely paths of common life, make us to be as those who, having put on the immortal body, now see the dear familiar things through the larger other eyes of the redeemed, that we may find that garden of the soul where hedges burst into bloom at the fall of an approaching shadow, where Thou dost walk with flowers springing up beneath Thy wounded feet. There like an Eden blossoming in gladness, Bloom the fair flowers the earth too rudely prest. Amen. Mr. ROBINSON of Arkansas.
