They were a physically unimpressive lot. One trait they shared with their new masters, Malenkov, Beria and Molotov: their small height. The ranks of the chief mourners, following the tall, uniformed pallbearers (see NEWS IN PICTURES), are a dumpy group, who could be posed alongside Stalin without dwarfing...
