Recently Durham has adopted a city plan and complete zoning system, which is expected to correct some of the mistakes already made
17
in city planning and to serve as a basis for finally developing a city along broad and comprehensive lines. In this connection, although not caused by the plan, it might be well to state that the Southern Railway has recently built shifting yards, roundhouse and other facilities in the western section of the city as a step in this road's ex- tensive freight-handling improvements to be made in Durham during the next few years.
While figures are sometimes dry reading, it often takes them to show what manner of a place a city is, and recourse to them is sought for this purpose now.
In the first place, Durham has two National and seven State banks with combined surplus and undivided profits of $3,215,326.94, de- posits of $23,691,042.73, and total assets of $31.639.529.82. In 1927 these banks showed debits of $338,012,130.22, an increase of S32,- 495,233 over 1926, clearings of $116,612,706, the one-year increase being $10,234,018. Durham also has two industrial banks with a capi- tal, surplus and undivided profits of $285,231.31 and total resources of $1.171,851.36. A large joint stock land bank is also located in Dur- ham with a capital of $700,000, surplus of $290,615, undivided profits and reserves of $163,000, and total resources of $15,562,931.18.
Building permits, also a good index, amounted to $2,586,754.00 in 1927. Business buildings last year numbered eighty-seven, costing $1,029,269.00, while residences numbered 561, costing $1.557,485.00. Postal receipts amounted to $183,512.00 in 1926, as compared with $209,749.20 in 1927; an increase of $26,237.20.
Durham is known primarily as "a working man's town," but recrea- tional activities are not neglected entirely. Three miles from the city has recently been completed one of the nicest country club de- velopments in the State. The membership of the club is composed of members of the faculties of Duke University, two miles from the club house, and the University of North Carolina, six miles away, and of the citizens of Durham generally.
Already the city has two golf courses, the Hillandale, privately owned, with eighteen holes, and the Forest Hills, with nine holes. There is also located three miles from Durham, at Hope Valley, an eighteen-hole golf course.
In 1926 El Toro Park, home of the Durham Bulls, club of the Pied- mont baseball league, was completed, giving this city one of the finest baseball parks in the South. At its dedication Kenesaw Mountain Landis pitched the first ball, which was caught-at by Governor Angus Wilton McLean, of North Carolina, after His Excellency had led around the field a huge red bull, the club's mascot, with the high commissioner of baseball astride his broad back.
The Durham Woman's Club occupies a modern club house, while the Young Women's Christian Association building, constructed along
18
modern lines, gives this organization a splendid home. The Young Men's Christian Association is making plans for a still larger structure, not so close in, from the sale of the present valuable property.
Durham has five very active civic clubs: Rotary, Kiwanis, Lions, American Business and Monarch Clubs, all contributing their part to the development and growth of the city. An active Chamber of Com- merce leads in such activities, while practically all of the main pro- fessions and business groups have their associations, in addition to the social organizations usually found in a city of Durham's size and conditions.
The growth of Durham has been rapid but substantial, based along broad and solid industrial lines. Records show that in 1870 Durham was a community of 256 souls. Thirty years later the number had increased to 6,679, while the next decade saw it treble. In 1920 the United States Census report showed a population of 21,719. It was during the next five-year period that Durham passed from the town to the city class by extending her limits to take in two populous suburbs so that the government census of 1925 showed a population of 42,258. The census bureau estimate of 1928 increased the number to 47,000, giving Durham fourth place among the cities of North Carolina.
During the next ten years the city should show greater progress than during any like period in its history. The great Duke Uni- versity building program will have been completed and the institution will be functioning fully before the end of that period. Many of the

great developments that will follow in its wake, some now in the minds of men, others not yet thought of, will be completed or well under way. By every means available of forecasting the future, Durham has one of the best opportunities of any city in North Carolina, state of won- derful possibilities, of becoming a large, prosperous and populous city.
