HERBAL REFUSES TO
 FILE PETITIONS
 FOR REFERENDUM
Petitioners Intimate Man damus Will Force Accept
 ance of Papers.

Little Rock, May 21.-(Special.)- Secretary of State Tom J. Terral to- day, refused to accept petitions asking g referendum vote on the action of the recent legislature in ratifying the eighteenth amendment for national prohibition. The petitions were pre- sented by Col. c. H. Whittemore of Little Rock, representing five per- cent of the legal voters of the state. The action of Secretary Terral was taken on an opinion rendered by John D. Arbuckle, attorney general.
 The petitions have been circulated through the state and bear several thousand more names than are neces- sary to call for a vote under amend ment No. 10 of the Arkansas consti- tuition. They were not presented to Secretary Terral, actually but Col, Whittemore called at the state capi- tai early in the day and asked the secretary to make arrangements to file them. Mr. Terral told Col Whit temore that it would be useless for him to bring the petitions to the capi- tai because he would refuse to accept them,, acting on the advice of the at torney general.
 Col. Whittemore indicated that he would consult the law firm of Cohn, Clayton and Cohn, with the intention of filing mandamus proceedings

MISSING AVIATORS
HELD FOR RANSOM
Mexican Bandits Capture Army Flers---Bg Sum to be
PaidArrangemen Being Made in Ell Paso to Send
SIS, 900 to Save Officers Lives.

mander of the aero unit at Fort Bliss,
representing message signed by the
two aViators who have been missing
since Sunday, stating they had been
captured by McXicans and were be-
ing held for $4,000 ransom which
must be paid by August Is, or they
would be killed.
"ThiS message was brought into n
town in the Big Bend district by well
known bandit. Col. G.. II. Langhorne,
commanding officer Of the Eighth
Cavalry and the Big Bend district
wired the commanding general of the
El Paso district that the message is
authentic and that he is taking all
necessary measures to secure the re-
lease of the aviators and has present
ed this matter to the proper authori-
ties. The name Of the place from
which the message was sent, as we'll
as the place where the ransom Is to
be paid, is not given, as it might in
terfcrc with the release Of the avia-
tors"
Lieut. Peterson is % years Of age
and is from Hutchison, Mimi Lieut.
Davis is 20 years old and is from
IStrathmore, Cal.
Aviators Peterson and Davis are a
part Of the personnel of the Fort
Bliss aviation corps, but were on de-
tached duty with the Big Bend dis
trict military headquarters at Maria,
Texas. when they disappeared. They
left Maria last Sunday morning for
the usual patrol Of the border plan
ming to follow the north bank of the
rio Grandc 20 the end OF inc district.
1t is believed by aviation officers
that they confused the Conchos River
which flows into the Rio Grandc near
Preside, Texas, with the Rio Grande,
and followed the course Of this river
into the interior Of Mexico. Another
theory advanced here by fellow avia-
tors is that they were forced to land
either on the American or Mexican
side Of the border, in the wild country
Of the Big Bend district and were
made prisoners by the Mexican ban
dts, who make marauding trips
across the border at frequent intervals
in search Of cattle and other property
which they carry off to Mexico.
When It became. known at Fort
Bliss tonight that the aviators were
reported held by Mexican bandits,
there was much hiscusson among
army officers OF the possibility Of
American troops crossing the border
in search of the bandits. This was
Idiscrcditcd by higher officers for two
reasons. The principal one advanced
was that the American aviators would
be killed If an expedition crossed in
pursuit, Will" the other was that the
orders to cross the border in the Big
Bend district apply only to pursuit
OF bandits who have stolen property
on the American side and then only TO
follow "hOt trail"
