Hill Directory Company, Publishers


INTRODUCTION AND GENERAL INDEX


HILL DIRECTORY COMPANY, publishers of Southeastern Directories, (pub- lishers of the Goldsboro City Directory since 1906) present to subscribers and the general public, this, the 1962 edition of the Goldsboro City Directory, which also includes Adamsville.


Confidence in the growth of Goldsboro's industry, population and wealth, and in the advancement of its civic and social activities, will be maintained as sec- tions of this Directory are consulted, for the Directory is a mirror truly re- flecting Goldsboro to the world.


The enviable position occupied by HILL'S Directories in the estimation of the public, has been established by rendering the best in Directory service. With an unrivaled organization, and having had the courteous and hearty co- operation of the business and professional men and residents, the publishers feel that the result of their labors will meet with the approval of every user, and that the Goldsboro Directory will fulfill its mission as a source of authen- tic information pertaining to the community.


Five Major Departments


The five major departments are arranged in the following order :-


I. THE BUYERS' GUIDE constitutes the first major department, printed on goldenrod paper, and contains the advertisements of leading manufacturing, business and professional interests of Goldsboro. The advertisements are in- dexed under headings descriptive of the business represented. This is re- ference advertising at its best, and merits a survey by all buyers eager to familiarize themselves with sources of supply. In a progressive community like Goldsboro, the necessity of having this kind of information immediately available, is obvious. General appreciation of this fact is evidenced by the many reference users of this City Directory service.


II. THE CLASSIFIED BUSINESS DIRECTORY is the second major depart- ment, printed on canary paper. This department lists the names of all busi- ness and professional concerns in alphabetical order under appropriate head- ings. This feature constitutes an invaluable and indispensable catalog of the numerous interests of the community. The Directory is the common inter- mediary between buyer and seller. As such, it plays an important part in the daily activities of the commercial, industrial and professional world. More buyers and sellers meet through the Classified Business Directory than through any other medium.


III. THE ALPHABETICAL LIST OF NAMES of residents and business and professional concerns, is the third major department, printed on white paper. This is the only record in existence that aims to show the name, marital sta- tus, occupation and address of each adult resident of Goldsboro, and the name, official personnel, nature and address of each firm and corporation in the community.


IV. THE DIRECTORY OF HOUSEHOLDERS, INCLUDING STREET AND AV- ENUE GUIDE is the fourth major department, printed on green paper. In this section the numbered streets are arranged in numerical order, followed by the named streets in alphabetical order; the numbers of the residences and busi- ness concerns are arranged in numerical order under the name of each street, and the names of the householders and concerns are placed opposite the num- bers. The names of the intersecting streets appear at their respective cross- ing points on each street. Special features of this section are the designation of tenant- owned homes and the listing of telephone numbers.


V. THE NUMERICAL TELEPHONE DIRECTORY is the fifth major depart- ment, printed on blue paper.


Community Publicity


The Directory reflects the achievements and ambitions of the community, depicting in unbiased terms what it has to offer as a place of residence, as a business location, as a manufacturing site and as an educational center. To broadcast this information the publishers have placed copies of this issue of

the Directory in Directory Libraries, where they are readily available for free public reference, and serve as perpetual and reliable advertisements of Goldsboro and vicinity.


The Goldsboro Out-Of-Town City Directory Library


Through the courtesy of the publishers of the Goldsboro City Directory, a Directory Library is maintained in the offices of the Goldsboro Chamber of Commerce, for free reference by the general public. This is one of more than 1,000 Directory Libraries installed in the chief cities of the U. S. and Canada by members of the Association of North American Directory Publishers.


The publishers appreciatively acknowledge the recognition by those progres- sive business and professional men who have demonstrated their confidence in the City Directory as an advertising medium, with assurance that it will bring a commensurate return.

GOLDSBORO "THE HEART OF EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA"


(Courtesy Goldsboro Chamber of Commerce)


Location and Topography-Goldsboro, a city with an estimated population of 31,100, is 52 miles southeast of Raleigh, the state capital, 89 miles north of the port city of Wilmington and 97 miles northwest of the port of Morehead City. The city is halfway between New York and Jacksonville, Florida, approximately five hundred miles from each.


Wayne County, of which Goldsboro is the county seat, has an area of 555 square miles. It lies wholly within and is the approximate center of the Coastal Plains section of the state, one of the great agricultural areas of the United States. The topography is flat to gently rolling and averages approximately 104 feet above sea level.


The Neuse, Northeast Cape Fear and Little Rivers, as well as a half dozen creeks, drain the county.


Climate- The annual mean temperature is 61.3 degrees ranging from an average of 42.8 degrees in January to 79.7 degrees in July. Rainfall averages approximately 49 inches annually. Snow is seldom seen.


The date of the last killing frost in the spring is April 1, the first in the fall is November 4. The length of the growing season is 217 days.


Taxes and Fiscal Policies in North Carolina-North Carolina has sound and economical fiscal policies. The tax administration machinery insures fair and equitable enforcement without discrimination. The budgetary control system is unexcelled. There is no way for the State to create a legal deficit.


The Governor is directed by law to reduce the appropriations to the extent that revenues fail to meet requirements. The State may not borrow in excess of 2/3 of the amount of debt retired during the preceding biennium without the authorization of the voters. Local governments are similarly restricted to 2/3 of the amount retired during the preceding fiscal year. The Local Government Commission supervises the issuance of all local governmental bonds.


In order to compare the tax structure of North Carolina with other States, it is necessary to consider total State and local taxes. The responsibility of fi- nancing public schools and roads rests on the State. Thus, State taxes con- stitute a greater portion of all State and local taxes than is the case in most States. This results in efficiency, economy, more uniform services and a reasonable local tax bill. Interstate comparisons are misleading, but exper- ience shows that tax costs calculated for N. C. specific plant sites with spe- cific data as to size, type, and financial characteristics compare quite fav- orably with other Southeastern States.


Reasonable tax treatment of businesses and industry is a fixed policy. The franchise tax on corporations has been lowered to ease the tax load on busi- ness, and the intangible taxes have been adjusted downward for the same pur- pose. State tax rates on corporations have not been raised during the last 20 years. The 1953 General Assembly created a Tax Review Board. The 1957 General Assembly modernized the tax laws and adopted a set of allocation rules for multi-state businesses which fosters the development of regional distribu- tion centers as well as a continuation of the growth of manufacturing concerns.


Major Sources of State Revenue: There is no State Property Tax.


1. Gross retail sales tax (3 %). Industrial machinery, equipment, parts and accessories (1 %). Limit of $80 on a single item. Coal, coke and fuel oil (1 %). Raw materials, containers, labels, wrapping and shipping materials exempt.


2. Income tax on individuals and corporations limited by State Constitution.


3. Gross receipts tax on utilities and insurance companies.


4. Beverage taxes on beers and liquors.


Minor Sources of State Revenue :


1. Classified property tax on intangibles.


2. Franchise tax on business corporations.


3. License fees and earnings.


4. Gasoline tax-solely for highway maintenance and construction.
