Simple STL Q - heap vs. automatic

I'm brand new to the STL.

Say I have a variable ms = new multiset<int>;
and I put a bunch of integer values into ms.
Now I want an interator starting from a certain value so I type:
multiset<int>::iterator iter = ms.find(4);

This makes iter an automatic variable. How would I do this if I wanted
to keep iter around? ie, How would I create this same iterator using a
"new" statement?

Thanks,
Mark
