Among these are plants manufacturing: Overalls, work shirts, men's summer clothing, mattresses, box springs, pillows, veneers, plywoods, art glass, paints, enamels, varnishes, lacquers, sealers, stains, fillers, undercoats and reducers, bobbin heads, shuttle blocks, building material, mirrors, glass furniture and novelities, toys, hosiery transfers, embossers' labels and seals, silk and rayon weaving, hosiery and underwear yarns, dyes, chemicals and textile oil specialties, paper boxes, corrugated shipping containers, television cabinets and a variety of other products.

Charter and Form of Government
The original charter of the City of High Point was granted by the State Legislature in 1859. The present council-manager form of government was inaugurated by charter amend- ments in 1915 and 1931.
The present charter provides for a city council consisting of a mayor and eight councilmen.
XI
INTRODUCTION
High Point is operated under a modern city-manager charter which places responsibility for efficient operation of all departments upon the city manager and delegates to him authority commensurate with such responsibility.
The charter is unique in that the debt-creating power of the City Council is very greatly restricted. No new indebtedness may be created in any fiscal year in excess of 50% of the amount retired during the previous year, except by vote of the citizens. Under this plan, the indebtedness of the City will undoubtedly decrease each year, and at the same time, such limitation will not prevent the logical development of municipal facilities.
Electric Distribution System
The City operates its residential and commercial electric system with considerable net profit. The City's charges for electric current sold to its residential and commercial con- sumers are no greater than those charged for similar classes of service rendered by private utility companies operating in this area.

Is growing: The regular session of the last school year enrolled 795 and carried 427 in summer school and extension. Fifteen states and two foreign countries were represented in the student body. This is a most remarkable record for 27 years' operation.

" For here, in addition to 309 factories and mills, are the banks, shops and stores which serve a local retail area of 85, 000 population; here are broad, tree-shaded streets; here are the charm of flower gardens and the comfort of luxurious and modest homes. Here are recreation centers, sports and entertainment; and neighboring the city's outskirts are farms prospering with the varied products which modern agriculture creates.
