port of alleged election irregulari-

ports the position taken by the

right" Joyner said in a statement
that as chairman of the State

questing assistance in prosecuting
the case, if assistance is desired. ;"

ty. The State Board conducted its

venlber 3 general election.

Witness At Trial
OF Leader

PARIS, July 3d. MD Former
Pfemier Edouard Herriot, assail-
ing Marshal Henri Philip. Petain
for building a ''full-fledged dicta-
torship" in France, asserted today
at Petain's trial that President
Roosevelt put American resources
at frances disposal in 1910 and Of
fered "the hope, perhaps even 4
conviction, that the United States
would enter the war"
The defense offered its first wit
mess, Protestant pastor Marc Moeg-
ner, shortly after Herriot's testi-
mony. Boegner said that Petain at
Vichy seemed ''powerless" to alter
Nazi practices in France.
Herriot, 73-year-old perennial
mayor of Lyon, was followed to the
stand by mystery witness,
Maj. Georges Loustaneau-Lacau.
The major first was mentioned in
the trial Saturday during testimony
linking Petain's name with the
Cagoulards, Rightist political Or
ganization in France.
Loustaneau-Lacau, leaning on a
case, came to court from the hotel
Lutetia, transit camp for returning
political deportees. He denied f. 1t
either he or Petain were Cagou-
lards, and took up much Of his
testimony with bitter attacks on
Communists and on pre-war Frencs
politicians, including former Pre-
mier Edouard Daladier.
Herriot charged that in June, 1910

movement of Frances republican
government to North Africa until
an armistice was signed. He said
Petain was aided by Pierre Laval
