=//**__Industrial Progress__**//= //**__James B. Duke moved to Charlotte and started a new industry. Most of the industrial gorwth was concentrared in tobacco, textiles and furniture. Because of the Duke family, Durham became the source for most of the nation's cigarettes.Towns continued to grow rapidily. More than a dozen towns had aleast 10000 people living nearby by 1910. To handle the industrial growth, the state had to be more oganized. That meant that people had to be educated in the new ways and influenced to behave in new ways. White leaders used politics to accomplish these goals.__**//

It is generally considered to be the first successful powered, piloted aircraft. The Wright Borhters spent a great deal of time observing birds in flight. Over the next three years, Wilbur and his brother Orville would design a series of gliders which would be flown in both unmanned and piloted flights. They read about the works of Cayley, and Langley, and the hang-gliding flights of Otto Lilienthal. They corresopended with Octave Chaute concerning some of their ideas. They recognized that control of the flying aircraft would be the most crucial and hardest problem to solve. In 1904, the fisrt flight lasting more than five minutes took place on November 9.**//__
