In May 1953, I was sent for the remainder of that year to the Australian National University (ANU) in Canberra by Australia's central bank, where I was then a junior research officer. Feeling rather lost and lonely, I was reading in the library when Pat Moran looked over my shoulder and, noticing what I was reading, asked me to come and see him. This event altered my life, for I then came into close contact with a man of firstclass mind and of generous scientific spirit.
