LACK OF PETROL
BUTCH AVIATORS FORGED DOWN LOCATED FROM THE AIR Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright PERTH, October 4. The missing Dutch aviators were located from the air 120 miles southeast of Kalgoorlie. They informed airmen who landed beside them that they became lost and were forced down through Jack of petrol. Assistance is being sent to enable them to take off. [A message received on Friday stated: An extensive aerial search yesterday of the country near Kalgoorlie failed to reveal any sign of W. Rous and H. Van Beekman, two Dutch airmen who have been missing since Wednesday morning. A land party left Kalgoorlie to investigate a theory that the plane crashed where fire was seen 60 miles from Kalgoorlie, and, together with the missing men, had been incinerated. The Dutchmen were making a holiday flight around Australia.]
