Arthur E. Holder Addresses Bright

Citizens Association in Van Horns Hall.
Georgia avenue and LongfeIlow street.
Freedom of speech is one Of the fun
damental American rights" said Mr..
Holder. To prevent thousands of per-
sons from giving voice to their COM
plants is gross injustice. The gag
rule as applied TO the civil service of the
country is a dangerous order Freedom
of speech is the God-given right Of man,
and yet the President of the United
States attempts TO rob the people Of this
heritage. II the order is permitted to
exist unchallenged. II will mean the eX-
tension of existing evils in the govern
ment service"
Mr.. Holder, in speaking of the educa-
tional system OF tie National Capital,
said that the teachers are greatly under
paid. He asserted that the best service
cannot be expected unless decent wages
are paid the school employees.
