AUSTIN—Texas is one of the
fastest growing areas in the
nation right now. Jobs and
sunny weather, among other
things, have brought people
to Texas in record numbers.
Some scrape together their
life’s savings just to get here.
Unfortunately, this large in-
flux of people encourages
another kind of person to come
to Texas: the con-man, who
takes advantage of new-
comers.
Many pitfalls exist for
people who are new to an area,
especially if they do not speak
English well. Some major pit-
falls are jobs, housing and
automobile purchases.
Many people come to Texas
without a job, thinking that
one will be easy to find. This
is not always the case, and as
people get low on cash, they
may fall prey to a con-man’s
story of easy money. Many
newcomers and natives alike
have answered advertise-
ments they thought were for
“management training posi-
tions" only to find that they
were being urged to invest
money in a type of “pyramid"
scheme. Others are promised
easy money in some business
opportunity such as a vending
machine operation. Once they
invest their money they may
find the machines in poor con-
dition or non-existent, sup-
plies for the machine are in
poor condition or non-existent,
and quite often there is no
market for the machine.
Newcomers should be ex-
tremely cautious about poten-
tial employers that want them
to pay money. The best pro-
tection is to shop around and
get a feeling for the market.
A consumer might wish to
consult an attorney before
spending his money. The At-
torney General’s Office and
the Better Business Bureau
also have records of com-
plaints filed against various
companies.
Another problem for new-
comers to Texas is in the area
of housing. Some newcomers
arrive in Texas thinking they
already have a home lined up,
only to find it has been rented
to several different families at
once. Others pay money to a
house or apartment locater to
find lodging for them only to
lose their money. Again, con-
sumers can protect them-
selves in the housing market
by shopping around. They
might wish to talk to a real
estate agent in their home
town before moving to Texas
for ideas on how to obtain
housing in Texas. They also
could contact the Chamber
of Commerce in the town to
which they are moving, or the
local Better Business
Bureau. If a consumer loses
money to a con artist in the
home hunting field, he can
complain to the Attorney
General’s Office or to the
district attorney in that area.
Unlike many eastern cities,
most Texas towns do not have
a comprehensive mass transit
system. Many newcomers will
need to buy a car. For most
people this may not be a
problem, but for those who do
not speak English it can be an ,
invitation to tragedy. Some
newcomers have thought they
were signing a contract to pur-
chase a car on time, only to
find they will lose their house
if they default. The greatest
protection a consumer can pro-
vide himself is to shop around
and get to know the market.
If you do not speak English,
bring a translator who does.
Never sign a contract if you
don’t know what it says or
have not read it. Do not give
in to a high pressure salesman
who offers you a "one time
only" deal. If you can’t go
home and think about it, it is
probably not worth the invest-
ment.
With each of these prob-
lems, if a consumer has lost
his money and feels he has
been the victim of a violation
of the Deceptive Trade Prac-
tices Act, he can contact the
Attorney General’s Office,
Consumer Protection Divi-
sion, and he can complain
to his local district at-
torney’s office. However,
once your money is lost
it is hard to get back. If the
consumer will shop around,
get to know the market and
check with a private attorney
before spending his money, he
may avoid the hardship and
heartache of having to try to
get it back.

In the event of an emer-

problem. Be sure the proper
help is on the way before
you hang up.
Air traffic control. It’s a special
job that demands a special kind
of person. The responsibility
can be great, but so can the
rewards, such as knowing
you’re good at the job you do
and gaining the recognition that
goes with it.
It’s only one of the Navy’s
many highly technical fields that
offer top training and the
opportunity to stay on for a
highly rewarding Navy career.
Some of the best people in
their fields have turned their
training and experience into a
Navy career and that makes
us proud. They’re Navy men and
women who not only believe
in being the best at what they
do, but who also believe it
means a little bit more when it’s
done for their country.
