Odd Penny Taxes and Car Fares
Cause Unprecedented Demand
Every mint In- the United States has
been put to work by Director Ray
Baker turning out one cent pieces in nn
effort to keep pace with the enormous
demand for the nation's least valuable
coin.
By instituting a twenty-four-hour
day the output has been pushed to 00,-
000,000 cents a month.
"There hae been approximately a.
500,000 cent pieces coined in his
country," Mr. Baker said todqy in
Washington, "but where they have
gone is n mystery nobody seems able
to solve. The subtreasurles arc inun
dated with orders from banks, .which
keep issuing the copper coins for use in
payment of odd-cent taxes and street
car fares, but the demand continues.
The May output of the mints was
64,084,000 coins, of which 60,073,000
were one-cent pieces. Nickels also were
in large demand, 2,643,000 being
coined, the remainder of the production

quarters and 370,000 dimes. The money
value of the output was ?l ,233,880. All
