Population


In 1930 the population within Burlington's city limits was 9, 737, with several thousand in the immediate suburbs. According to the 1944 special U. S. Census, the city's population was 21,830.


Within a 13/4 mile radius of the City Hall there are now 25,000, while a four-mile radius will take in over 35,000, or over 50 per. cent of the population of the entire county.


The following are 1940 population percentages for Burlington:


Native white 88.000


Foreign-born white . 0.6 00


Negro. .


11.4 90


Total native-born 99.4 9/0


The same census showed that for the U. S. the percentage of in- crease in population during the period of 1920 to 1930 was 16.1 q/o. North Carolina was 23.9 g/o.


The population of Alamance County during the same period in- creased 25 qo, while the population of Burlington increased 63.5 g/o.


Thus Burlington's growth was four times that of the U. S. average, and nearly three times the state average.


Churches


The essential religious atmosphere of the community and its influence on Burlington's citizenship are indicated by the presence of 35 churches (30 white and 5 colored), including all leading denominations, this being a ratio of one church to every 650 of the population. Total membership in local churches is around 15,000.

Education


COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES-Within a two-hour automobile ride of Burlington, within North Carolina, are at least seventeen white colleges and universities of the first rank, and several within this radius in the neighboring state of Virginia, making a total of more than twenty. Of these, four are State institutions and ten are denominational. There also are a number of Negro educational institutions, State, denominational and private, within the same area.


Elon College, supported by the Christian Church, is located four miles from Burlington, and is one of the best equipped educational in- stitutions in the state, as to buildings, strength of faculty, and equip- ment.


CITY SCHOOLS-The Burlington city public schools rank among the best in the state. The local school district has eighteen buildings, of which thirteen are white and five Negro, the district embracing Bur- lington and its suburbs. At the close of 1949 the faculty consisted of 147 white and 32 Negro teachers, the enrollment of students being a total of 5,357. Classroom and laboratory equipment, library, auditorium, gym- nasium and playground facilities are adequate.


The public school system is governed by a local board of educa- tion and a superintendent under the supervision of the State School Com- mission, and is financed principally from State funds, the State having assumed the support of all public schools through a state-wide system set up in 1933 by legislative act.


Burlington has a business college giving commercial classes, bookkeeping and stenographic instruction.


There are also several private kindergartens and a parochial school.


LIBRARY-A public library, supported by the City and County, has 35,298 volumes, while the circulation for home use in one year to- taled 228,682. This does not include use within branch school libraries.

INTRODUCTION


Recreation


Burlington is within afew hours' ride of the noted beach resorts along the coast, the nationally-known sandhill resorts around Southern Pines and Pinehurst, and the far-famed summer mountain resorts sur- rounding Asheville, in the western part of the state.


There are many game preserves in the area. Bear and deer are found in coastal and mountain counties. Raccoons, foxes, opossums, quail and rabbits are available throughout the state. Brant, ducks, geese and other migratory birds winter in large numbers on the coast and there is also excellent fishing along the coastal sounds and in the lakes and streams of the interior.


Within an easily-accessible distance of Burlington are excellent hunting and many streams and lakes for fishing.


Within the city are playgrounds at each of the schools, baseball and football fields, several parks, a number of tennis courts, the Ala- mance Country Club with an excellent nine-hole golf course, four theatres, and a year-'round recreation commission program. A large park with stadium, swimming pool and complete recreational facilities will be com- pleted soon.

COMMERCIAL FEATURES


Trade Area


Burlington's retail and wholesale trade area covers a radius of fifteen to twenty miles, including all of Alamance County and parts of the five adjoining counties, this area having a population of over 125,000. The volume of retail business in Alamance County, according to Sales Management Magazine, was $52,914,000 last year, and of this a- mount, Burlington's stores did a retail volume of $37,093,000. Burling- ton ranks eleventh in population in the state, but rated ninth in retail sales. Per capita annual income for Burlington is $1,597, andper fam- ily, $6,016. The city is rated fifth among North Carolina cities in ef- fective income per capita and per family.


Local Stores


A recent survey of the nearby trade area indicated the decided preference of customers within Burlington's area for patronizing local stores, because of the excellent quality and service, the variety and the prices of commodities, which compared favorably with those of cities much larger. There is a very small percentage of mail-order and out- of-town shopping. Approximately 88.4 o/o of those in the Burlington area buy in Burlington.

INDUSTRY


Alamance County's industrial history dates from the year 1837, when Edwin M. Holt, who was born and reared in the county, established a cotton mill on Alamance Creek, four miles southwest of Burlington.


About 1854 this mill began the production of colored woven cotton fabrics, the first in the South to produce this material.


In 1887, when Burlington acquired its name, there were three cotton mills, one coffin factory, and a few smaller plants. Today there are 30 hosiery mills, 15 other textile and 33 miscellaneous-a total of 78, in a community with a population of 21,830. There are 41 other plants, principally textile, located in the remainder of the county.


Industrial expansion has been steady. The Lafayette Mills were established in 1881; the E. M. Holt Plaid Mills in 1883; the Lakeside Mills in 1893. In other parts of the county the older plants include White Furni- ture, in 1881; Durham Hosiery Mills, in 1898; Virginia Cotton Mills, in 1894.


Burlington has become known as one of the leading hosiery-mill centers of the country. According to latest available census data, only five cities of the U. S. outrank Burlington in production, only one of these being in the South, while Burlington leads the South in number of plants. The first hosiery mill here, the Daisy, was established in 1896, follow- ed a few years later by the Burlington Knitting Co., the Whitehead Hos- iery Mill, the Sellars Hosiery Mill, the May Hosiery Mills, and the Mc- Ewen Knitting Mills-the last being the first in the section to manufac- ture full-fashioned hose. These were followed by many others, most of which are still operating.


Beginning in 1923, with the establishment here of the Burlington Mills, the rapid expansion of this group of plants, now numbering seven in and near the city, with some twenty in other cities in the area, has brought the weaving industry to the forefront, making the city known for dress goods, art silk, tapestries, and other cotton, rayon and silk fabrics, as well as for hosiery.

The E. M. Holt Plaid Mills, which have celebrated their 60th an- niversary, also entered the rayon and silk-weaving field a number of years ago, and have several plants in Burlington and the county. This plant was purchased by Burlington Mills in 1939.


These groups and several others have made Burlington one of the country's leading centers in this textile field.


In 1942 Fairchild Aircraft Corp. established a plant here, which produced war planes during the war and is now converted to civilian pro- duction.


Other industrial lines represented by local manufacturing plants are lumber, building material, brick and stone, insecticides, disinfectants, caskets, soft drinks, ice, mixed feeds, dairy products, baking, printing, proprietary medicines, cosmetics, gas, paper boxes, foundry and ma- chine shops, foods and textile supplies.


Among the 3,073 counties in the U. S., Alamance ranks 216th in number of manufacturing plants, and 203d in number of wage-earners.


INTRODUCTION


INDUSTRIAL PAYROLLS in the Burlington area average well over $50,000,000 annually, with 17,364 persons employed. Indicative of the steady industrial growth, in the past fifteen years, the average number of new plants per year was eight.


THE FUTURE-SOME COMMENTS


During the severe economic crisis of 1930-34, this sturdy city fought the depression and conquered it.


"No town in the state has shown its ability to come back better than the city of Burlington," declared a newspaper man from another Carolina city, and Burlington citizens have made that reputation possible, both by individual and collective community effort.


The late Franklin K. Lane, one-time Secretary of the Interior, made the following statement in one of his addresses: "The region of central North Carolina, stretching from the Blue Ridge Mountains to. a point about Goldsboro, is destined to become the greatest industrial area in the U. S., because of its great industrial advantages and economics." Burlington and Alamance County are situated midway in this region and bid fair to prove the validity of his statement.


The late Irvin S. Cobb said: "Let some statistician tell a tale in exultant terms of bank clearings and enlarged bank deposits, exports, advancement of wealth and production. Going only by what these two eyes have seen, I proclaim that North Carolina today is the foremost state of the Union in material progress, in public spirit, in educational expansion, and optimism of outlook "


Burlington's development, although not as rapid as some other cities, has not, like many of them, been of the "boom" type, or "one- sided," but rather a steady, sound, substantial one. This under lying economic soundness has borne fruit.


With vast markets awaiting the products of Burlington's industry, diversified farming assuring its agricultural progress, and established retailers equipped with facilities and the experience to serve best their customers' needs, the city can reasonably look forward to the greatest era of firm expansion in its history during the coming years.


The city invites and will welcome and cooperate with those firms and people who believe that character and economic soundness are para- mount to mere size in development.


PROJECTS UNDER WAY, 1950


Burlington citizens are eager to provide needed facilities for a growing community. A few of the projects under way at the beginning of 1950 are as follows:


(1) The City of Burlington is beginning a water and sewer ex - tension project that will cost approximately $2,000,000 and will furnish water and sewers for the new section of the city.


(2) The County Commissioners have authorized a bond issue for approximately $3,000,000 for the City and County schools.


(3) The North Carolina Theatres plan to erect a large and mo- dern theatre between Front and Davis streets on the Gant property.


(4) The industrialists of the city have provided approximately $400,000 and expect to add another $100,000 this year to make atotal of $500,000 to be spent for a community building.


(5) The City of Burlington, in cooperation with interested citizens, is developing the South Main Street City Park.


(6) Plans are under way to provide two swimming pools (one white, one colored) for the citizens of Burlington.
