Noted Fire on Constellation Blamed on Chain of Circumstances
The Constellation disaster killed 49 and caused 75 million dollars in damage. Rear Adm. Pyne urged that the blaze resulted from an unforeseen chain of events, not general negligence, as Navy safety measures were ordered including banning fuel tanks aboard ships and removing below deck wood scaffolding. Witnesses described the fire starting when a fork lift pushed a trash bin against a steel plate, tipping a fuel valve and igniting welding near fuel. The inquiry adjourned to next Tuesday.
