Sir Stafford Cripps, who wrecked his health the fight to save Britain from economic disaster, was created a Companion of Honour in the New Year Honours List published today.
The Companionship of Honour, carrying no title, is one of the most select honours the King can bestow. It is an order limited to only 65 members.
The same honour was awarded to Australia's Liberal Prime Minister, Mr Robert G. Menzies, in today's list, the 30th of the present reign.
The King created only two now Peers - both Social- Ista for political and public services.
