Died. Baron Morrison of Lambeth, 77, Deputy Prime Minister in Britain's postwar Labor government (1945-51), the perky Cockney sparrow who organized Civil Defense as Home Secretary in Churchill's wartime coalition government, later became Clement Attlee's top domestic administrator when his own party came to power, spearheading the conversion to peacetime industry and the drive for higher living standards, all of which won him promotion to Foreign Secretary following Ernest Bevin's death in 1951, and a peerage in 1959; of a cerebral hemorrhage; in London.
Died. Thomas Francis Sullivan, 82, railroad conductor, whose moment of tragic fame came in 1942 when his five sons went down with the cruiser Juneau off Guadalcanal, after which he stoically toured U.S. war plants urging other fathers, "Never be sorry for the boys who die in battle, but be so proud that you will put your shoulder to the wheel and work all the harder"; of a heart attack; in Waterloo, Iowa.
