Railroads: Southern, A. T. O.
Highways: State Routes No. 10, 26, 90 and 115. U. S. Routes No. 21, 64 and 70.

Elevation: 960 feet.
LOCATION
The City of Statesville is located in western North Carolina, midway between Virginia and South Carolina state lines. It is the county seat and practically in the center of Iredell County. It is located in the heart of the Piedmont Section of North Carolina. Charlotte is 40 miles south, while Raleigh, the state capital, is 150 miles to the east. The surrounding country is high, rolling, well drained land. The Catawba River, into which the drainage from this section empties, is some 10 miles to the Southwest. A network of national and state hard surface highways radiates from Statesville. The highway system includes routes from the Atlantic Coast to the West Coast, Great Lakes to Florida, south North Carolina to Blowing Rock and mountain sections, to Winston- Salem and other points.
Bus service operated by the Queen City Bus Company, 44 schedules, and the Greyhound Lines provided 42 busses to all points daily. Eight Parkway busses every 24 hours. City wide bus service by Statesville Motor Coach Company. A number of motor truck lines operating out of and through Statesville provide frequent and rapid highway freight and express service.
CLIMATE
Statesville and the surrounding country enjoy the splendid climatic conditions of the well-known Piedmont Section. The high plateau, protected by mountain ranges, provides a mild, even climate, free from prolonged extremes of temperature, with generous but not excessive rainfall. There is no interference with outdoor activities from freezing or snowfall. Destructive winds are practically unknown. The elevation and temperature combine to provide healthful living and industrial con- ditions and to minimize fuel costs.
BUSINESS INSTITUTIONS
Two state banks, with total resources of $16,700,000, serve the local commercial and industrial requirements in Statesville. There is also an industrial bank serving individual needs reporting resources of
575:52

PREFACE
$596,000. In addition two building and loan associations have resources of $1,512,000 available for home and business construction. There are some 250 retail and service establishments in the city, catering to the need of all classes. In addition to its own requirements, the city serves as a trading and wholesale distributing center, supplying a wide sur- rounding area.
TRANSPORTATION
Rail transportation service at Statesville is provided by the Southern Railway System and the A. T. O., a branch of the Southern. The line from New York to Memphis passes through the city; the A. T. O. operates from Statesville to Charlotte, North Carolina, and beyond. Connections at Spencer Transfer, 30 miles to the east, provide quick freight service north to all principal markets, and south and southwest to the principal coastal and industrial cities of the south. Passenger train service is provided with 8 passenger trains daily. Excellent undeveloped indus- trial sites are available within or immediately outside the city limits, adjacent to both railroad lines and highways.
LABOR
A splendid type of labor is available in this section. There are at present employed in manufacturing activities in the community more than 5,000, including male and female. Eighty manufacturing indus- tries. Yearly payroll in industries $2,500,000.00. A wide range of skilled classications are included, for the reason that present industrial activities are widely diversified. However, the larger portion of the workers are experienced in textiles or wood-working, the predominating industries at present. The basic industry of Iredell County is farming and with the advent of the Carnation Condensery in 1939, dairying and cattle raising has become a major agricultural industry.
A large potential labor supply, probably more than equal to that now engaged, is available in Statesville and the immediate surrounding communities. Untrained workers in this section because they are of an unusually intelligent type, willing and anxious to engage in indus- trial pursuits, are easily trained and make dependable, skilled workers. New industries could be staffed without importing workers from a distance. There is no labor disturbance or agitating elements in this district, and destructive strikes are unknown. Manufacturing wages of course conform with the various national codes.
ELECTRIC POWER
Electric current for power and light is furnished to domestic and in- dustrial users of Statesville from the vast power developments of the Duke Power Company. Distribution is made by the city's Light and Power Department, up to and including 13,427,600 K. W. D. for the year 1944. Industries requiring greater amounts contract directly with the generating company. Power is brought into Statesville over three transmission lines owned by the Duke Power Company. The quantity available is unlimited, and the rates to industrial users favorable.
FUEL
Coal for industrial purposes is at present available in Statesville from the Tennessee, Kentucky and West Virginia fields. Domestic and car load lots, $8.40 to $10.85 per ton delivered. Gas for domestic and industrial purposes is available throughout the city.

WATER SUPPLY
The city's water supply is taken from the near-by streams, from which it is pumped to setting basins. The water after filtering passes to a stand-pipe of 150,000 gallons capacity. The present capacity of the water plant is more than 2,000,000 gallons in 24 hours. 1,000,000 storage at plant.
TAXES
The city and county tax rates in effect in Statesville are moderate when the services to its citizens are considered. The city rate is 70 cents per hundred and the county rate $1.15 per hundred on an assessed valuation equivalent to 75 percent of estimated actual values. All taxes are included in these figures; no special taxes.
EDUCATION
An excellent public educational system is maintained in Statesville. The gammar schools are housed in three modern, fire-proof buildings. The system also includes a fully accredited senior high school and junior high school, housed in their own up-to-date building. Two schools are provided for those of the colored race. The total enrollment in these schools is 2,517, which is cared for by a teaching staff of 84 people. Statesville is also the seat of Mitchell College, a co-educational institution sponsored by the Presbyterian Church.
CHURCHES
All the principal religious faiths are represented in Statesville. There are located in the city 19 churches for the white population and five churches for colored people.
ATTITUDE TOWARD INDUSTRY
While the City of Statesville is an old established community and the present home of a number of old and important industrial enterprises, its alert citizenry are alive to the advantages of further industrial develop- ment and the opportunities available there for new industrial activities. Prospective industrial undertakings will find local business men, as represented by an active Chamber of Commerce, eager to extend intelli- gent co-operation. Not only are no local governmental restrictions or handicaps placed in the way of new enterprises, but on the other hand, the local government and business officials co-operate in planning favor- able industrial surroundings.
CITY GOVERNMENT
The municipal government of the City of Statesville is maintained on the Aldermanic Plan, its body being composed of eight Aldermen in addition to the Mayor. The city government protective services include well organized Fire and Police Departments. The Fire Department maintains six paid men and a volunteer corps. The equipment consists of two American-La France 1750 gallon combination pumpers, one Dodge 500 gallon pump and 400 gallon storage tank, one Dodge ladder truck. There are 320 fire hydrants, in which water pressure is constantly main- tained throughout the city. The police force is composed of thirteen full- time paid day and night men. The city maintains some 30 miles of paved streets, complete with sidewalks. White way lighting is main- tained on main streets, and adequate lighting is provided throughout the city. A modern sewage disposal plant is employed.
For detailed information address Chamber of Commerce, Statesville, North Carolina.
