King, commander-in-chief of the Atlantic fleet, a second flagship, the 144-year-old 36-gun wooden frigate, U. S. S. Constellation. Admiral King, whose flagship, the cruiser U, S. S. Augusta, heads the far-flung neutrality patrol against Nasi submarines and raiders, will use the Constellation for administrative work when in port. The-four-star flr.g of Admiral King will fly fron\ the 9,000-ton Augusta when at sea in search of what President Roosevelt has termed the liigh-seas "piracy" of Nazi many. file* AinirtTs flag. 4 V In port, the flag will fly from the venerable Constellation, one of six ! ,200-to-1,300-ton frigates built by congress in 1797 to blast Algerian and Tripolitan pirates preying on American merchantmen in the Mediterranean at the behest of the Dey of Algers, alias the King of Kings, alias the Perfume of Paradise. High point of the 10-year service of the Augusta, %hich mounts nine eight-inch guns and carries four airplanes, came two weeks ago when President Roosevelt*and Prime Minister Churchill met aboard Admiral King's flagship for the historic conference on means of halting Nazi tyranny and piracy. High point .of the Constellation's service, also linked with piracy on the seas, ca«ne in 1799, when the frigate did much to end French privateering in the West Indies. Fought in Tripoli War. Meeting the French 30-gun frigate Insurgente off St. Kitts in the Carib^ bean, the "Yankee race horse" as the Constellation was called, poured broadside after broadside into the French vessel, forcing it to strike colors after casualties of 29 killed, 43 wounded. The Constellation lost but two men killed and three wounded. The Constellation, in addition to fighting in this short war with France, participated in the war with Tripoli, the War of 1812, cruised for pirates in three oceans, and, in the Civil war, sought Confederate vessels in European waters. For 70 years the Constellation has been a training and "museum" ship, is now stationed at Newport, R. I. As an honor to the old sailing vessel, President Roosevelt placed it in full commission a year ago. Command was given to Lieut. John Davis, United States navy, retired, possessor of the Medal of Honor for cutting cables under heavy fire off Cienfuegos, Cuba, during^ the Spanish- American war. Sixty-two-year-old Admiral King for six months has been commander in chief of the Atlantic fleet, regarded by naval officers as the "hottest" spot in the service today. J.
