Britain Owes Deep Debt Of Gratitude
to Patrick QuInan, Of Whom

One of the most vital and at the

war on the British side was Patrick
Ouinan. an American of Irish descent.
Vital because he planned all the great
munftion works which enabled Great
Britain to supply not only her OWE
but her allies needs In munitions;
mysterious because his name was
never allowed to be mentioned during
the war and because he would never
be interviewed.
Mr.. Quinan reached England by way
Of South Africa. Trained at du Points
he went to the South African Explo-
sives company at Cape Town, then the
largest In the British empire, owing to
the demand for explosives for mining
The vast factories laid out
In England during the war-now some

Britain with a view to restoring Tor
mer French supremacy. Since the

creature. Mauritius was once known
as Cerne, q name which it Is said to
have derived from cienas-the dodo,
