Circuit Judge Robert Gollmar first convicted the 62-year-old former Plainfield handyman of the 1957 murder of Mrs. Ber-nice Worden, then found him innocent by reason of insanity. Gein, who spent 10 years in the Waupun Hospital, will be kept there until "his release will not be a danger to other persons," Gollmar ordered. Gein "thought he was an instrument of God" when he killed Mrs.

Worden, Gollmar said, quoting from Central State's psychiatric report. "Certainly it is obvious that he was not unhappy with her death." Fantasy World Calling him "an unfortunate man," the judge said Gein "lived in such a fantasy world that he was unable to appreciate the criminality of his acts." Gein was tried only for the slaying of Mrs. Worden, a Plainfield hardware store operator, who died of a bullet wound in the head. But officials investigating the finding of the headless, eviscerated body of the 57-year-old widow hanging by the heels in Gein's woodshed, had told of macabre discoveries on the bleak farm. These they said, included parts of at least a dozen wom-pn's hodies which, officials be BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) Leaders of the Western alliance joined today in castigating the day that he will "make whatever decisions the President of the United States is called on to Soviet occupation of Czechoslovakia.

He called on all Americans now to "submerge any party interests'whether Democrat or Republican and try to do what they can to help. Johnson also said at an impromptu meeting in his office with reporters that "we are doing all we can to bring about substantive discussions" in Vietnam peace talks at Paris "that will include the government of South Vietnam at the earliest date possible." But he had no further report of progress in Stewart, the first to speak at the meeting, demanded a clear signal to the Russians -against further military action in Europe.
