May testimony clash with committee demands over rights
The 15th committee pressed for guarantees that if he testified he could have counsel, recall witnesses, call others, and subpoena records. May refused to appear, saying the plain import of the letter is his decline to face the facts. The panel argued the public must be told how stewardship was carried out while May claimed he acted to aid the war effort. Meader reported Lords Sarelas failed to appear under subpoena and a second writ was issued.
