- <p> DIED. JOHN SMITH, 55, Britain's Labour Party leader; of a massive
- heart attack; in London. In two years, the soft-spoken Smith
- brought his party, once battered by losses to the governing
- Conservatives, to a position of such national strength it is
- prepared to mount its strongest bid for the country's leadership
- in 15 years. Smith's death will spur a scramble for power that
- could cost Labour yet another national contest.
