Availability


Within 600 miles from the boundaries of Piedmont Carolinas lie New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Detroit, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, Little Rock, New Orleans and Miami.


In other words, any part of this section is only about one day's railroad travel from the nation's chief centers of population and industry-a consider- ation that counts heavily in the distribution and marketing of manufactured goods.


From any part of the Piedmont it is only a few hours by automobile over modern paved roads to the wonderful recreational facilities of the mountains in

INTRODUCTION


the western Carolinas, to the world-known resorts inthe Sandhills-internation- ally famous for their golf courses-and to the great seaside resorts along the Atlantic Coast.


Labor


Greater than any other resource of Piedmont Carolinas is the character of its men and women. This has made the industrial development possible and attracted a host of manufacturers.


Long before the Revolution these pioneers ranged down the valleys of the Appalachians from Pennsylvania, Maryland and other states. Largely of English stock, with admixtures of German and Scotch-Irish, they settled in the hilly Piedmont section. Their descendants are true to those early traditions. They are energetic and ambitious. It is these qualities that years ago overcame the handicap of debt and stagnation left by the Civil War. They are keen to take their place in the forefront of the nation's development.


Manufacturers coming from older, over-industrialized sections, have been struck by the ready intelligence of these people, their eagerness to be taught, and their loyalty.


National Market


Piedmont Carolinas is 300 miles closer to the country's center of population than, for example, New York City. Based on the Life Insurance Sales Research Bureau studies, careful percentages have been worked out for every county in the U. S. in terms of ability to buy.


A 600-mile circle (the economical marketing radius) center on New York reaches 44.5 per cent of the national purchasing power. Centered on areas farther north and east, a smaller proportion of the national market will be included.


A similar circle drawn from Piedmont Carolinas embraces 66.8 per cent of the country's purchasing power -- a 50 per cent greater availability to the national market.


Cost of Living


It has been estimated by one authority that the cost of living averages each Piedmont workman several dollars per week less than an equal standard of living costs in more highly industrialized parts of the country. Houses cost less; food costs less. The mild climate requires lower fuel and clothing costs. Naturally labor costs less.


CIVIC FEATURES


Location and Area


Alamance County is located in the famous rapidly-developing industrial area known as the Piedmont Section. It lies between north latitude 35 degrees 52 minutes and 36 degrees 17 minutes and west longitude 79 degrees 16 minutes and 79 degrees 34 minutes, in the north central section of the state. (Burling- ton's altitude is 656 feet). The county has 492 square miles land area, or 314,880 acres.


History and Peoples


The following is quoted from a study by John W. Harden, entitled "Alamance County : Economic and Social," and published by the University of North Caro- lina: "It is not known exactly when the early settlers came to the region which is now Alamance County, but in 1700, when Lawson, an English explorer and adventurer, journeyed through this locality, he found it heavily forested and in the hands of the Saxaphaw Indians, with only a few scattered whites present."


"It seems that this section of the state was first settled by immigrants from the Rhine River section of Germany, known as the Palatine."


"These early settlers were augmented in 1720 by immigration of settlers from the North, and it was this movement that gave the region its first white inhabitants in any number. These came from Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and even the more distant New England. The newcomers were mostly Scotch-Irish, German and English families, the last being mainly Quaker in religion."

Total membership in local churches is around 20,000.

The public school system is governed by a local Board of Education and a superintendent under the supervision of the State School Commission, 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, a parochial school and one private day school with grades 1-4.


The Industrial Education Center for Burlington and Alamance County is adequate for the present. The various courses of study offered are planned by the State Department of Trade and Industrial Education with the assistance of consultant committees representing industry.

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 the 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 3 cotton mills, 1 coffin factory, and a few smaller plants. Today there are 67 hosiery mills, 19 other textile mills and 59 miscellaneous plants -- a total of 145 industrial plants in a community with a population of 33,199.


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 included the White Furniture Company, established in 1881; Durham Hosiery Mills, in 1898, and Virginia Cotton Mills, in 1894.

INTRODUCTION


Burlington has become known as the hosiery center of the country. The first hosiery mill here, the Daisy, was established in 1896, followed a few years later by Burlington Knitting Co., Whitehead Hosiery Mill, Sellers Hosiery Mill, May Hosiery Mills, and McEwen Knitting Mills -- the last being the first in the section to manufacture full-fashioned hose. These were followed by many others, most of which are still operating.


Beginning in 1923, with the establishment here of Burlington Mills, the rapid expansion of this group of plants, now numbering 11 in and near the city with some 100 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.
