Army Contract Subcontract Involving Visors and Caps
In 1950 a subcontract with Sol Schlesinger of Ideal Uniform Cap Co. of Freeport supplied 710,000 visors and caps for the armed services. Miss Mackey testified Schlesinger needed cash to “pay off under the table” to sustain the contract and she paid 927473 in all checks from March to September 1951. Schlesinger reportedly called these loans but refused repayment, with investigators noting funds diverted to Colonel Shirley and noting notarization issues due to island residents’ status. IRS enforcement concerns were raised.
