It's a (Unix?-) principle that services with numbers below 1024 are
only allowed to get startet by root.

You can use NAT to exchange port numbers.
Or if it's possible to extract SSL-certificates you install Apache
(httpd) that is using it's own mechanism to start services with "low
port numbers", setup SSL and use something like mod_proxy_ajp or mod_jk
to contact Tomcat's ajp-connector.
