Almost 150 years ago, President Lincoln found it
necessary to hire a private investigator, Mr. Alan
Pinkerton, to provide security. He was actually the
beginning of the Secret Service.
Although this did not save him, since that time
federal police authority has grown to a large
number of agencies - FBI, CIA, INS, IRS, DEA, BATF,
etc.
Now Congress has passed legislation for a new federal
security agency:
"Federal Air Transportation Airport Security Service."
Can you see the new service in their uniforms with the
initials in large white letters across their backs?
