A FORCED LANDING FLIGHT MAY BE ABANDONED. Pre« Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. MELBOUBNE, April 27. A message from Bangkok states that Smith and Shiors’t plane was forced down in rough country thirty miles from the Siamese capital. The men were unhurt, but a wing of the plane was broken, and the flight may be abandoned. The plane was unable to take off fully loaded from Singora, on the Malay east coast, owing to the aerodrome s limited space, and it therefore had to start with a minimum load, which proved insufficient to reach Bangkok
