Portée et contenu
the meeting between Frank Duff and the Counsellor of the Russian Embassy with the view of establishing the Legion of Mary in Russia. The memorandum in relation to this is under consideration by the Sacred Congregation of the Holy Office. There is a fear that the communists may use the Legion to gain a foothold in Ireland. +McQuaid believes that it may be the start of preparations to establish a consulate in Ireland. He has no fear in relation to Frank Duff and describes him as ‘…entirely loyal, sharp-witted and, what is not always realised, very unusually intelligent. He is one of the most intelligent men I have ever met’. He feels Duff’s visit could be used to gain world- wide publicity and used for the Russian’s own propaganda purposes. He is not inclined to favour a visit by Duff to Moscow.
