Russia's overall objective in the present world situation is "to capture Europe, including an unharmed Germany, so as to consolidate it with the Soviet power and thus emerge as strong as th United States, Chancellor Konrad Adenauer declared in an exclusive inter- view. I I. r- wjl By BILLY ROSE Bye Bye By-Line I may feel differently about it one of these days; but as of this writing propped up in bed and with a magnum of morphine sloshing around in my veins I've about made up my mind to stop writing this column.

Chance llor Adenauer thus expressed his views at the moment when British Prime Minister Attlee was leaving for Washington to give President ni A the Chancellor Adenauer views of the British and French Governments, on the international crisis "There will be lasting peace only," Adenauer said, "when the United States is able to confront the Soviet Union with a military force to attack which the Russians would consider truly dangerous. Only then will the time have come to talk peace lasting peace with the Russians. Says U.

S. Needs Germans. "To build such a military force, however, the United States will also need the Germans," he said. "But America will get the wholehearted cooperation of the Germans only when the German people no longer feel they are a second-class power under foreign occupation. "The German people should gain the conviction that their destiny will no longer be shaped by negotiations in which they have no voice and on the basis of an occupation statute founded on the con quest of Germany.

"But it is also clear that this offers the West the only way out of the present dangerous situation and the only way towards tne crea tion of a unified and federated Europe-.

And now, as the sun sinks in the west and the nurse shoves a thermometer in my face, I reluctantly say farewell to the lovely land of green eyeshades and printer's ink. It's been a real nice clambake and who knows maybe we'll bump into each other again. (Copyright.

150. by Billy Rose (Diamtmuni by The Bell Syudicaie. Inc.) 120,000 Gather Census in Poland Warsaw, Dec. 3 UP). One hun dred and twenty thousand nose counters covered the length and breadth of Poland today -for the first complete census since before the war.

A count made in 1946 was regarded as incomplete because of postwar displacements. The 1946 census wound up with a count of 23,929,757. Today's is expected to enumerate a population of above 25,000,000. Gas Kills Six Steubenville, Ohio, Dec. 3 (U.R).

A nightclub operator, his wife and their four childlren were killed today when a fire and explosion spread deadly gas fumes through their apartment. The victims were John Gall 39, his wife Anna, 33, their daughters Joan 9, Patricia, 7, and Barbara, 3, and 11-month-old son, John Jr. 1 For the past year my doctor has been waving blood counts and cardiograms at me, and hinting that all work and no play makes Jack a dead boy. He's been telling me that I no longer have the bounce to cope with all the chores and deadlines breathing down my neck that the day was past when I could dance at half a dozen weddings simultaneously. Up to now I haven't paid him much mind, but my current bout with the miseries has finally brought me around to his way of thinking.

And it isn't because the operation I recently underwent was such a much matter of fact it was pretty much run of the scalpel and, outside of the pain involved, nothing to be too concerned about. But I began to get plenty concerned a week ago when I found that, for the first time in my 51 Novembers, I wasn't snapping back the way I should that the ever-lovin elastic wasn't there any more. A few years ago I would have been yelling for tiffin and telephone before the anesthetic wore off, but today, three weeks after the patch-up job, I've still got a headful of fog and a skinful of ache. The decision to say good-by to my by-line has been a tough one to make. For almost five years now this column has provided most- of the fun and focus of my life, and emotionally it has meant more to me than anything I ever tackled.

I've watched it grow from a paid ad in The News to a feature syndicated in more than 2,000 papers (counting, weeklies), and naturally an old show-off like me doesn't like to leave the stage with that big an audience in the house. But if it has to be a choice between hoopla and hypertension, I guess I know which side my bed is buttered Before stashing my typewriter way, however, I'd like to give out with a few thank-you's to the gentlemen of the press who have put up with my verbal vagaries tfor the past fifty-odd months. First, foremost and fulsomely, I want to express my gratitude to John Wheeler, bossman of the Bell Syndicate, who wet-nursed this column from a foible to a feature. Second, I'd like to say much obliged to the Dominion News Bureau, which handled the Canadian distribution. Ditto, Editors' Press, which Heaven only knows how translated my popeyed prose into Spanish and Portuguese for the Latin American trade.

And, double ditto, to Farnham Dudgeon of Western Newspaper Urfron, who was largely responsible for its small-town circulation, and John Dawson of the London Feature Service, who so brilliantly merchandised it in Europe and in the far crannies of the Empire. Most of all, though, I want to thank the dear hearts and gentle people who now and then have made room for me at their break, fast and dinner tables.

Expected to be an occasion of brilliant novelty, the ball (a bene fit) not only has several commit tees of women working for it but also a men's group with superlative social know-how who find fans fas cinating. Among them are Jock Whitney, Vincent Astor, Michael Arlen, Bob Montgomery and Billy Rose.

Mrs. William C. T. Gaynor is chairman of the arrangements committee; some of her assistants are Mrs. William Talbert, Mrs.

A' prize, a fan-shaped diamond pin will be given for the most beautiful fan carrier to the ball. CHIC-CHAT: December is society's month for big dances, both af ternoor and evening variety.

Dec. 7 will see the last great party at the Ritz-Carlton, "The Lest Enchanted Evening," a benefit for the Maternity Center Association and The Lighthouse for the Blind. Parade Shelves Santa to Keep Yule Spirit' Dec. 8. a fashion show tea dance for the Judson Health Center will be held at The Plaza.

Also so the Dec. 8 is the Christmas party at The Pierre for Common Cause Inc. Dec. 16. there'll be the Winter's Eve dance at Sherry's for the Outdoor Cleanliness Associa tion.

The great annual mass debut, the Debutante Cotillion and Christmas Ball, will go onDec. 18th in the Waldorf's Grand Ballroom and "Fete des Artists" will be put on Dec. 28 in Billy Rose's Diamond horseshoe. The fete is a benefit for the Hospitalized Vet erans Music Service. Mrs.

William G. Breed is chairman. the parade next Friday, "but we feel that Christmas has become too commercialized. People are losing their perspective of this most joyous and solemn Christian holiday." So the Junior Chamber invited some 75 churches in the area to do something about it. No Business Floats.

Business firms are not permitted to enter floats. Just the churches, Salvation Army, the Humane Society and other civil and charitable organizations. And they can't spend more than $150 on their exhibits. There are no prizes. Businessmen appreciate the idea, said Cotton.

Rea-'int, Dec. 3 U.R). Santa Claus will be banned from the reading Community Christmas parade this week. For this parade is in the "real spirit of Christmas." There'll be floats depicting scenes of the Nativity, the story of the Three Wise Men and music and singing of the age-old carols and Christmas hymns. The sponsors of the parade feel that Christmas, 1950, is not a time to think about gifts and getting.

That's why they banned Santa 'Nothing Against Santa' "We have nothing against Santa Claus," explained attorney Robert I. Cotton, president of the Junior Chamber of Commerce, which is putting on "A number of them have donated money to pay for the cost of putting on the parade," he said..
