Investigation not thorough says Meehan in trial notes
Meehan claims the investigation was not thorough as Bolling Sisler and Sands face charges of dividing money for an allegedly favorable contract. The case cites alleged kickbacks and irregular bidding related to the contract in question. Proceedings continue with defense arguing for a fuller review of evidence and witnesses.
Meehan Questions Shipping Board Probe Of Downey Contract
John T. Meehan deputy chief of the shipping board's investigation bureau testified before the Walsh committee that charges of money division involving R W Bolling Lester Sisler and Tucker K Sands tied to a Downey Shipbuilding contract were not thoroughly investigated. He said the inquiry was limited and did not examine Sands books or visit Downey Shipbuilding to justify a $40 000 payment for a contract previously awarded by the board. He noted the investigation began around June 1 and remained open though he believed the charges lacked foundation based on the reputations of the individuals involved. He said he had received no instruction to halt the inquiry.
