DIREFUL FUTURE
 FOR U. 5. PAINTED
Atty Frank Duly Plays Forces Trying to Drive
 Country Into War

Before an audience of one hun. dred members of the Catholic Mems Supper club at the Hotel Elton last evening, Attorney Frank E. Duly of Hartford, pointed out the futility of crushing Germany and other to- talitarian states, if Russia is to be left to spread her Communistic doc trines through world torn asunder by fearful conquestS.
 Sponsored by the Sheridan coun- cil, A, Knights of Columbus, the meeting was the third in the series being sponsored through the winter months. Attorney Duly spoke at great length on the forces that are attempting to drive this nation into war that will actually mean the sending of American troops to the European continent.
 He insisted that groups seeking aid for the Allies are no longer lim- iting their appeals, but now are at opint where they are ready to de- mand the sacrifice of our American youth on the battlefields of Europe. Attorney Duly claimed in his re- marks that only by carrying the war to Hitler can he be fully conquered and Naziism and other foreign 'isms" roted out of our civilization.
 He pictured a direful future for this nation in the event it is plunged completely into the Euro pean war. It was his contention that we are still paying for the last war and are not out of the depres- sion that followed the stock market crash of late 1929.
 Pope Plus XII was seen by Attorney Duly as the one figure in Europe perhaps even the whole world, now seeking lasting peace among all nations. He pointed out that a sub- stantial section of the hierarchy here in America, as well as Catholic educators and editors in great num- bers, were also rallying to the cause of peaceful intervention. He advo- cated earnest prayer for their ef- forts.
 Deputy Grand Knight Patrick J Wallace was chairman of last nights session. He spoke briefly prior to his introduction on the youth movement in the United States. MT. Wallace is state president of the CYO and an active worker in its behalf.
 The next Supper club meeting will be held on Monday evening February 3, with Raymond J. Fan ming, managing editor of the Wa terbury American, officiating as chairman.
