United States missionaries
Congressional delegates and Sen
ators-have arrived in Europe

on Germany. The other Euro

anxiety for the hard lot of the
European countries. In reality
these missionaries have a very

LONDON, Sept. l2.- The
World Bank and the World
Monetary Fund declared today
the main effort to reconstruct
Europe's war torn economies
must be made by the European
countries themselves.
But both of the 45-nation financial
institutions agreed that Europe also
must have outside help-particularly
from the United States-in the form
of goods to spur production. They
called production the final solution
of the problem"
Both institutions, in second annual
reports to their Boards of Governors
meeting here, also said they lack the
resources and authority to give aid
on the scale now required. That
help must be obtained from govern
ments,' the reports declared.
Fund Resources Limited.
The fund, headed by Camille Quit
of Belgium, summed it up this way:

|Cut-Rute Stores Here Selling
Short Weights, Buyers Warned

Washingtonians were warned to-
day by J. Thomas Kennedy, superin-
tendent of weights, measures and
markets, of a wave of short-weight
selling brought on by high food
prices and consequent customer re-
sistance.
He said recent short-weight cases
show that stores are guilty of ad-
vertising food, particularly meat, at
cut-rate prices and then selling short
weight to make up for it. The situ-
alton is reaching epidemic proper
tions, he said.
To combat the trend, he said, he
is organizing flying squadron of
inspectors and shoppers to catch
offenders. Those guilty of cheating,
he said, are liable to a $500 fine or
six months in Jail for each offense.
The bulk of toe short weight
selling, he explained, is done in the
smaller stores. Cheating in chain
stores generally comes when food
purchases are totally at the cash
register, he said.
He said he is going to send speak

BY the Associated Press

BERLIN, Sept. 12.-Dispatches
from Jena, in the Russian-occupied
zone of Germany, said today that
Mayor Heinrich Mertens of that city
had vanished after returning Sep
tember from a vacation in Berlin
The British-licensed German

a widespread search by police, who
have failed thus far to unearth a
clue as to the whereabouts of Dr.
Rudolf Paul, minister president of
Thuringia, also in the Russian zone,
who disappeared two weeks ago.
The British-licenSed paper Tele-
graf said today that Theodor Plivier,
author of the novel "Stalingrad'

tural Society for the Democratic
Revival of Germany" also was mis-
sing from his home in Weimar.

and other gatherings to warn resi-
dents against short weight practices
and urged them to shop in self
service stores with pad and pencil
so they can compare the total made
as they go along with that charged
at the cash register.
In one recent short-weight case,
a man advertised chicken for 80
cents a pound, a price below whole
sale rates. He had the store
checked, Mr.. Kennedy said, and
found one purchase ran five ounces
short. This means the customer
really paid 4S cents pound. he
added.
In another instance, Mr.. Kennedy
said, he found T-bone steak selling
for 50 cents a pound was 6 ounces
short in a pound and a half.
Fruits and vegetables also are
being sold by short weight, he said.
In one case a head of cabbage
recently was sold that was II ounces
under the weight on which the
charge for 1t was based.

The argument interrupted the sub

subcommittee said the revisions have
cost the Government $2,000,000.
After the first witness had been
heard, Mr.. Bender read note from
Mr.. Kaiser asking for an appo-tun-
ity to be heard. Mr.. Kaiser had en-
tered the hearing room a short time
before.

Mr.. Kaiser said that in view Of a
statement Mr.. Rich had made he
would like to be heard by the COM

He referred to a published state
ment quoting Mr.. Rich as saying
that if the Reconstruction Finance
Corp. scaled down the debt owed

be investigated.
Mr.. Rich said 1t was impossible

Margin Requirements
Raised on Grains for
Second Time in Week
Heavy Liquidation Hits
Chicago Grain Market;
Wheat Down 10Cents
Ry the Associated Press

CHICAGO, Sept. 12.-Margin
requirements for futures trad
ing on the Chicago Board of
trade were increased, effective
tomorrow, for the second time
within a week to keep pace with
sharply advanced grain prices.
Heavy liquidation swept over the
grain pits today, forcing all cereals
below the preceding close.
The market was extremely nerv-
Gus and subject to wide price swings
in either direction. Opening lower,
it ran up several cents before meet
ing the new selling. Wheat prices
backed down nearly 10 cents from
their highs before meeting resist
ance.
There was no particular news de-
velopment to cause the midday SELL
ing, which appeared to be based
mainly on the public agitation for
lower food costs.
ncVlSlOUS CuSLOIudTy.
Near the end of the second hour
of trading wheat was "a AZ lower
than yesterdays finish, with Sep
tember at $271A; corn was z-314
lower, with September at s2.55ha
and oats ALA lower, September
selling at s1.17A.
The margin revisions, customary
procedure when prices rise or fall
over wide ranges, was announced by
Board of Trade directors after the
close of trading yesterday. They
raised the margins on wheat, corn
and barley 10 cents a bushel, oats
S cents a bushel and soybeans Is
cents a bushel.
The minimum requirements for
trading in these grains thus were
fixed at As cents bushel for wheat
and corn, so cents for barley, Is
cents for oats, and rs cents for soy
beans.
Some Margins Are Higher.
The directors pointed out. how
ever, that the requirements by many
individual commission houses still
are we'll above those fixed as mini
NUNS by the board. Some COM
mission houses, they added, require
6U cents a bushel margin for wheat
futures trading and SIS cents a
buShel for corn.
Although the action was taken
shortly after Senator Flanders, Re-
publican, of Vermont had expressed
belief in Washington that the
margins should be 100 per cent, a
board spokesman said the revisions
were mot inspired or influenced by
any statements in the public press

At one time she was a target of

insufficient evidence to support any
