POPULATION
Marion has a population of 2,889 (1950 Census). Federal census figures do not give an accurate picture of the Greater Marion area because the city has limits of less than one mile radius and a number of large industrial plants and many homes are located outside the area within 31/2 miles of the city's radial point. Greater Marion has a popu- lation of approximately 12,500 estimated in 1958. The McDowell Cham- ber of Commerce estimates 28,000 people in McDowell County in 1958.
RAILROADS
The Southern Railway System and Clinchfield Railway Company are the two main line railroads serving Marion, with connections to all points.
HIGHWAYS
Marion is located on U. S. Highway 70 east and west, on U. S. High- way 221 north and south and North Carolina State Highways 26, 126, 9 and 80. In the Highway System of North Carolina, Marion is the gateway from east to west. It is the hub to the system in the mountain sections.

The fabulous Blue Ridge Parkway skirts McDowell County on the north and is only a 30-minute drive from Marion. The Parkway is miles of mountain-top driving with no billboards or commercial travel. It maintains parking overlooks, picnic areas and comfort stations along the route and is easily accessible from Marion via U. S. 221, 70 and N. C. Highways 26, 26A and 80.

LAKE JAMES
Water sports are not limited to Cypress Gardens in Florida. Local Marion citizens and visitors enjoy Lake James practically year 'round, and to most residents fishing is second nature in this beautiful mountain lake.

Marion has a 60-bed hospital which was completed in 1952 at a cost of $700,000 and is one of the most modern units of its size in the United States. A 35-bed Nurses Home was completed in 1953 at a cost of $100,000.
CHURCHES
There are 21 churches in the Greater Marion area representing nine denominations including the Catholic faith.

AIR TRANSPORTATION
Marion has airport facilities to accommodate private planes, with a 3,600 feet grass runway which is used year 'round. It has one 60 x 60 hangar, and gas and oil are available on request. Regular air line service is available in Asheville and Hickory, 40 miles west and east respectively with a total of 20 flights daily.
RADIO
There is one radio station serving Marion, WBRM, 1000 watts, 1250 kilocycles, and is an independent station.
CLUBS AND ORGANIZATIONS
Marion has a Rotary Club, Kiwanis Club, Civitan Club, Lions Club, Junior Chamber of Commerce, Woman's Club, Parent-Teacher Associa- tion, various fraternal organizations, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, a number of garden clubs and charity leagues.
HISTORY
Marion was founded in 1843 and was named in honor of General Francis Marion, the "Swamp Fox" of South Carolina, whose name and fame have been immortalized in song and story.
ELECTRIC POWER

PREFACE
WATER
The City obtains its water supply from two water sheds located in the Pisgah National Forest, which is pure at its source and does not require any treatment with the exception of chlorination. These two sheds provide daily capacity of 1,500,000 gallons, and average daily consumption is 1,250,000 gallons. It is entirely a gravity system with adequate pressure to every point both inside and outside the city.
Marion has recently completed construction of one of the most modern filtration plants in the state which is operated from a separate water shed with a capacity of 2,000,000 gallons per day and is used as a supplement to the gravity system.
INDUSTRIES
The major industries in Marion at the present time are as follows: a cotton thread finishing plant, several large textile plants, a paper box plant, two large furniture plants, a number of hosiery mills, a bottling plant and several lumber mills.
Employer-employee relations in Marion and McDowell County are second to none in the United States. An excellent highway system permits easy access to labor coming from nearby towns.
