  Albert Thomas - Plagiarism on Wikipedia
Albert Thomas (1878-1932) was a French socialist politician whose wartime tenure at the munitions ministry led to significantly increased output of munitions throughout World War I.
A moderate within his own party Thomas was a gradualist, favouring an alliance with other liberal parties as a means of attaining social reform.
A new post, Thomas was appointed Under-Secretary as a means of circumventing what was widely (and correctly) perceived as a too-close relationship operated by War Minister Alexandre Millerand and the military high command led (and personified by) Joseph Joffre.

So too Albert declared that his aim was simply to make Aristotle intelligible to the West, which is by no means the same thing as to initiate the formulation of a system of philosophy which the Church would adopt as the basis of her official teaching.
Thomas returned to Paris, to enjoy the added prestige and authority that the doctorate, conferred at the express command of the pope on a candidate who had not yet reached the prescribed age, would give to his teaching.

Albert in the text quoted compares the human to the celestial intelligence; he goes on to say that the position he attributes to Aristotle is also that of Averroes.
Albert, therefore, is driven to the conclusion that the form of the element is a sort of intermediate form.
Thomas' own position is that the elements remain in a compound, not insofar as the substantial forms of the elements remain, but only insofar as the active and passive qualities of the elements remain.
