In contrast to the results of earlier analyses we find that the averaged squared matrix element of the production amplitude must be a decreasing function of energy in order to describe the existing experimental data.9 pages, 2 figures, several editorial changes, the treatment of small final momenta is improved, final conclusion unchanged.
