Pittsburgh Steel Co. Strike Is Averted PITTSBURGH (UPI) — Pittsburgh Steel Co. and the United Steelworkers Union reached an agreement on an incentive pay dispute Thursday night ending a strike-threat which would have idled 7,700 workers.

Pennies So Scarce They're Rationed SAN FRANCISCO (UPD— The lowly penny has become so scarce in the United States that it is being rationed, a Federal Reserve official said here Thursday. Almost all the pennies minted in 1960 havp dropped out of circulation, he said, because they are being hoarded by coin collectors. 1 “Anything you can do. to stop this crazy nonsense will be appreciated." said the official, who asked that his name not be used. The situation is so bad that' Federal Reserve banks throughout the country are limiting penny shipments to member banks. Some only get-a -sack a -day <<so» and others two sacks a week. . pie trouble began in 1959, he said, when coin collectors learned that the mints in Denver and Philadelphia had run off a few new pennies before the regular run. “Numismatists learned this and put out the word that only a few were going to be minted," he said. “This started a run on the new pennies and everyone began putting them away.” “They just got over that hurdle when somebody discovered the “o” in "of” in “U.S. of America" was small and let it be known that this was an error. “It is not, because the “o” has been small in other coins through . the years.” But then somebody discovered that a small number of pennies had a small "six" and "zero” in I the date, and collectors began another run. As a result, so many people are hoarding pennies in the hope they ‘ eventually will be more valuable '■ that almost all five million pennies minted in 1960 have disappeared.
