By Thomas Collins PITY YOUR POOR HEIRS WHEN WILL IS READ IF YOU are retired, have a little property and expect to be-- I queath it quietly to your hein some day, you had better be pre-pared to do some twirling In your grave. Because the lawyers and gov-ernment have things balled up good. I have known for some time that it was a complicated busi-ness to die while owning prop-erty. But this week I sat in on the reading of a will in a law-yer's office Just like in the movies. And It wasn't just com-plicated. It was unbelievable. The situation was this: A widower had died at age 71. He owned his home, a piece of business property and $12,000 in cash, bonds, etc. He also had $20,000 life insurance due and was entitled to a refund on his company pension. This seemed a simple estate. The man had three children and his will stated he wanted it di-vided equally among them after special bequests of $2,500 to old friends. This also seemed simple enough. But then the lawyer folded up the will and in effect told the children to come back in two years and he'd try to have them some money. There was no funny stuff in-volved and the lawyer was a fine one. This is just the way things are in some states and in some circumstances. The main problem was estate and inheritance taxes, always re-quired by the Federal govern-ment and usually by the State government. These taxes are high or low, depending on the worth of the property, so there must be an official appraisal. The lawyer estimated that it would take 18 months to get the will probated and the appraisal made. After that would come liquidation of the property, pay-ment of the taxes and finally distribution of money to the children. He explained it would not be wise to give them any of the ready cash in the estate because nobody knew what the taxes would be before the appraisal. If they were high, and the cash was gone, there would have to be a forced sale of the remaining prop-erty, with all sorts of complica-tions and a resulting loss. The $20,000 life insurance might have been sufficient safeguard, but the widower had provided that It be paid over a five-ye-period. The refund on the com-pany pension was suspect. Was it a return of the widower's money or company money, and therefore taxable as income? Paperwork, Judges, lawyers, affidavits, appraisals and time, time, time. So much time, in fact, that when the children at last cash in, the grave will be cold, the weeds sprouting and they will be getting their money not from Papa but from a complex of tax men, lawyers and courts. My best advice on the matter is just not to die. Far a eopy t ths new Golden Tears booklet by Thomas Collins, send --K3 cents In coin tno stamps) to Dept.

For the nonresi-dent issue the numbers will be blue on yellow paper, The law requires all persons pur-chasing a resident license to have been bona fide domesciled in the state at least one full year prior to such purchase. A total of 2.687 adult chukar partridges were released into 23 planting sites over the state last week, according to the department of fish and game. The birds were a part of those raised and matured at the state's gam bird farms dur-ing the past year. Experiments in the hatchery pro-duction of several exotic game bird species are continuing at-th- e Utah Dept. of Fish and Came bird farm in Price. The birds, mostly Asiatic in origin, include the see see part-ridge, grey francolin and black francolin, red legged partridge, white winged pheasant and sand grouse. Coal of the experiment is to ob-tain eggs from each of the several species from which to raise brood birds. All Utah waters open to fishing throughout the year may be fished on a 24-ho- per day basis. This regulation, new last year, was noted by the Department in answer to many questions regarding the more than 100 Utah waters opened to angling all year. Daily angly hours of 4:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. apply to all waters opened to angling for the regular season set for June 4 - Nov. 30, this year. . O FISH AND GAME HIGHLIGHTS Utah's fish and game licenses for I960 will be in the hands of all lic-ense agents over the state by April 8, according to the Department of Fiish and Game. The department reminded that legislative law sets the fish and game license year beginning April 16 through April 15 the year fol-lowing. In other words, the 1959 license must be visibly displayed when afield through April 5 this year, with the proper I960 license being required beginning April 16. Origin of the $ sign is a mys-tery, but the most widely ac-cepted theory is that it evolved j from the Spanish abbreviation j "Ps" for piasters or the same I Mexican symbol for pesos. o I Synthetic dyes have almost completely replaced the natural ' dyes of vegetable and animal ' origin that people used for mil- - lenniums to brighten their sur-roundings with colorful fabrics, pottery or glass. o ..gggJtJj Fred Astaire, perennial and dancer, actor, enter-tainer and star of motion picture and television spectaculars to end all spectaculars, has been named Champion of Champions Best Television Performer, in the 11th annual poll of television critics and columnists conducted by Television Today and Motion Picture Daily for FAME maga-zine . . . Best network show once again went to Playhouse 90. The critics named Dinah Shore and Perry Como best vocalists f.o.r.the eighth consecutive year In the most promising cate-gory, Edd "Kookle" Byrnes and Tuesday Weld finished first close-ly followed by Nick Adams and Connie Stevens . . . Jack Benny was named best comedian and his CBS show was first in its category . , . Lucille Ball held her position as best comedienne for the sixth year and Mike Nichols and Elaine May, who zoomed to popularity last year, maintained their lead this year. Other perennial favorites In this year's poll were Mel Allen, who was named best sports-cast- er for the eighth time; Perry Mason was the best mystery show; "Gunsmoke" the best western; Perry Com" show, the best musical show; "Jubilee USA," best country music; "The Price Is Right" the best audience participation; Garry Moore, best emcee; "Today." best daytime show; Hugh Downs, best an-nouncer; "Captain Kangaroo," best children's show and Chet Huntley best news commentator. These are the favorites of tele-vision critics over the nation but apparently the public disagrees in many cases since Mel Allen, for the first time in many years, did not announce the World Series this year; the Perry Como and Dinah Shore shows are losing their lustre, if ratings are to be believed, and there might well be a few challenges.
