As the tobacco industry grew and prospered, certain persons used some of their dividends in establishing cotton mills, and this industry soon assumed a position of importance in the industrial life of the city. Later hosiery mills were established, until today Durham ranks as the first city of the South in the manufacture of full-fashioned silk hosiery. Other industries were added from time to time, including flour mills, fertilizer plants, iron works, woodworking plants, printing establish- ments, etc., until in 1939 there are engaged in industry 13,350 wage- earners, producing $160,336,003 worth of manufactured products annu- ally. These industries pay into the Federal treasury approximately $70,000,000 each year. Durham today produces 24% of all the cigarettes made in the U. S.


In 1914 a program of civic improvement was undertaken, and although it was interrupted by the World War, it has now reached the point where Durham has all the conveniences of a modern city, includ-


Malbourne Hotel


ing complete sewerage, asphalt streets, paved sidewalks, electric power, gas, the latest dial telephone service, Western Union and Postal tele- graph service, American Telephone & Telegraph repeater station, in- suring rapid long-distance telephone communication, a fine recreation program, and a system of water works with an impounding reservoir sufficient to care for the needs of a city of 100,000 people.


Any story about Durham would be incomplete without mention. of the notable contribution which the Negro race has made to the industrial, commercial and civic development of the community. The progress the race has made here has been truly amazing. Under the- leadership of E. R. Merrick, and later, C. C. Spaulding, and their as- sociates, Durham's colored people have established industries, insurance. companies, banks and other commercial businesses which would be creditable to any city. The labor which they furnished the city's in- dustrial plants is intelligent and dependable. The high type of leaders among the colored people here has made Durham a conspicuous out -- post in the advancement of Negro civilization.

INTRODUCTION


One of the finest things about the founders of Durham is that material prosperity merely opened to them avenues of service to man- kind. It has been said that more philanthropists have been produced in Durham than in any other city of the South. Watts Hospital, of 210 beds, was a gift to the city and county by Mr. George W. Watts. Lincoln Hospital, of 108 beds, is largely the gift of Mr. Benjamin N. Duke. Duke University is a living memorial to Mr. Washington Duke and his two sons, Benjamin N. Duke and James Buchanan Duke. Other philanthropists have remembered the city from time to time in ways that help in making Durham a good place in which to live and work.


Durham is today the third city in North Carolina in point of popu- lation, having approximately 70,000 inhabitants, and is second in indus- trial payrolls, and second in importance in the value of its manufac- tured products. It is far in the lead in its educational facilities, having an unexcelled public school system and Duke University within its cor- porate limits, and having within a radius of a few miles the University of North Carolina, Wake Forest College, Meredith College, North Caro- lina State College, Peace Institute and St. Mary's.


The colored people have in Durham, in addition to excellent pub- lic schools for their race, the North Carolina College for Negroes, the only college of liberal arts for Negroes supported by taxation in the Southern states.


All these things have been accomplished by people not especially favored by nature, but who by their determination, unconquerable will, tireless effort, and by their faith in mankind and in this com- munity, have created a city that proudly takes its position as one of the representative cities of the new South and of America.

Excellent bus service is maintained between Durham and Raleigh, Henderson, Oxford, Roxboro, Greensboro, Chapel Hill, Pittsboro, Siler City and Danville, Va.


Water: Durham has an ample supply of pure water. An impound- ing reservoir completed in 1926 stores 4,600,000,000 gallons, which, if used for no other purpose, would, at the present rate of consumption, supply the demand for a period of three years. There is no longer any danger of a water shortage. The water is excellent for domestic uses and is soft and free from iron, making it very desirable for industrial purposes.
