Texas Has More Detectives Than State Can Handle
AUSTIN Tex AP Private detectives are booming after a federal law limited liability for credit card purchases to $50. The Texas Board of Private Investigators and Private Security Agencies reports current licensing shortages and underfunding. Executive director Thomas W Brown and chairman J Mason Lankford urged a larger budget for 1974 75 to boost licenses from 300 to 3 000 and expand the staff beyond two to enforce regulations. The law has increased demand as loss and theft drive investigations in retail and personal spending.
