Suspect Victim is Dead.
A suspicion that Bremen might be
dead close friends Of the family said.
led to their determination to turn over
no money for his freedom until they
received a message signed by him.
Miss Louise Bremen. sister Of the
missing banker, voiced sentiments OF
the family when she said money does
not mean anything and added the
ransom would be quickly paid in return
for her brothers freedom.
Reports that word had been received
either Saturday or Sunday from the alb
ductorS for payment or arrangements
TO pay the ransom, were emphatlcally
denied by the family. Police Chief
Thomas Dahill in terse statement
Saturday said Bremen is o. X. There
is nothing to worry about until after
Sunday or Monday"
Lack OF communication from the
of Bremer's blood-staired automobile

not until after the snow goes. Though
police branded it a hoax. an intense
search of Anoka and vicinity was made
by Anoka County authorities. in which

keenan, Fears Staying.
A theory that Bremen might have
been killed was voiced by Joseph B.
keenan,. assistant Attorney General in
Washington.

clared In the Bremen case We may
have the misfortune of experiencing
another Iindbergh situation
Explaining the Justice Department Is
exerting every effort to cooperate with
the elder Bremer's request for law
enforcement agencies to desist in their
attempts to apprehend the kidnapers
until his son was safely returned, he
added:
Meanwhile We are attempting to
keep negotiations secret" He appealed
to newspapers to suppress details until
the victim has been freed.
Police also had the story OF an un-
identified youth living near the missing
bankers home, that January IL or
l3 he had seen two strange autonlo-
biles apparently shadowing Bremen.
One of the cars was behind and the
other in front of the bankers automo-
bile as he drove to the bank.
The youth said he had heard Bremen
was being guarded against hdnapers
and assumed the two cars were pro-
tecting the banker.

WAGES Of c. v. A.
ARTISTS TRIMMED
Treasury Department Cuts
Pay in Local Region 10
Per Cent.

A 10 per cent pay cut affecting all
artists employed on the public works
of art project was put into effect Sat-
urday at the instruction Of the Treas
ury Department. it was announced by
Duncan Phillips. chairman of the
project for region four. including the
District, Maryland and Virginia.
Immediate steps were taken to pro-
test the reduction. which it is claimed
represents a double cut. as the artists
prior to the reduction had been COM
PEELED to buy the paints. brushes and
materials with which to carry on their
Government work Their pay ranges
from SIS to $42 so week.
The cut, is is claimed, also represents
violation OF the agreement under
which the artists were employed. They
were hired. Phillips explained. with the
understanding that 10 per cent of their
pay was an allowance to cover the
cost of paints, brushes, canvas and
other supplies.
General Protest Urged.
The artists are still expected to buy
the materials they need, but without
the allowance, it was explained.
Grant H. Code. technical assistant
10 tllc lOSdl W. "a hiSN q PASNNo~
Immediately after the reduction was
announced. on behalf of the artists
working in the District. He further
called for an official protest by the
committee in charge of the local prof.
eCt and a joint protest by regional
committees and artists all over the
country.
This is another instance OF the at
tempt to finance Government at the
expense of the lowest paid employees
Code said The same sort of policy
has been taking millions out Of the
pockets of clerical employees 1t Is not
a matter of scaling down high salaries.
That sort of economy is not in ques-
ti0n.
Others Supplied.
"On other jobs tools and materials
and office or workshop space are sup
piled. This is the only Government
project l know Of on which the work
ers are expected to supply their own
working space, buy their own materials
as we'll as tools. and turn over the
finished product to the Government In
return for their wages.
The whole policy of employing ar
fists or clerks. it does not matter
which. at a specified rate of pay and
then cutting their wages as soon as
they get we'll started in their work Is
highly questionable, and, incidentally,
highly demoralizing to the work.
