Planning Estates

Of the family by gift and the ball
ance through a viii or by a sales
contract OF both.
Some of the larger ranches are
incorporated and officers elected.
The corporation will continue after
the death of any Of the family
members. This method Of estate
planning as well as most others
should be carefully worked out with
the aid of competent legal and tax
advice.
A few estates have been set up
as trusts. This method is becoming
more common but few people are
informed regarding the set-up and
operation of trust.
A rather common procedure is
to set the property up in joint
tenancy with right of survivorship.
This procedure has some definite
advantages. It also may have some
definite hazards. Some of these
hazards are in connection with the
taxes involved. Other dangers are
in the case where joint tenancy is
set up and the parties later dis
agree. A joint tenancy can not be
dissolved without the consent of
all of the parties to the agreement.
Where TO Get Information
It is hoped that this series of
five articles will give you some
general information on estate plan
ming.
You may first want to develop
plan of your own which you be-
leve might fit your own family
and ranch situation under present
conditions. This plan should then
be checked with the necessary num-
Der Of qualified men to get advice
on the several angles in your estate
plan. You may include a lawyer
banker, a tax man, an accountant
a trust agency representative OF
an insurance man.
The important thing in estate
planning is to make a start. Thi.
start should be made as early al
possible. After you have read The
four articles following this one yol
will probably have a better idea o
the type of plan you may want t
set up and the questions on which
you viii need help.
After you have your estate plal
established, it should be reviewed
from time to time as required t
adjust for changes in the family
changes in the kind and amount o
property owned and for change
in the income tax, estate tax an
the general inheritance laws.

GRADING IS PROBLEM
THAT FACES ALL SHOWS


1 WAS VERY much interested in
the editorial and replies of MIR. Or
cult and Mr.. Jacobsen relative to the
question of whether or not junior
livestock show steers are up or down
graded.
I know it to be a fact that such a
condition exists at times, and when
it does happen, I am not positive
whether they are up-graded on the
part of the judges or down graded
on the part of the graders. Some
times, no doubt, both happen.
Our experience at the Junior Live
stock show has not been as radical
as some of the reports in this edi-
torial and some reports by Mr.. Jacob
sen and Mr.. circuit. We have found
that, if anything, there has been a
tendency, when grading the steers
into market grades alive, to be little
tougher than when the carcasses are
graded.
We had one serious problem last
year when quite large number Of
steers were purchased and sent back
to various small town hotels and res
taurants. Al number Of the steers
graded about one-half to a full grade
more in carcass form than alive. The
parents and exhibitors who hao
owned the steers felt they had beer
nistreated - however, the buyer.
were very happy.
We have had in mind during mos
years of the show to try and supply
the buyers with a better animal thai
they anticipated. Perhaps we hav,
been too tough on our grading a
times. iia
We have found on occasion wher
the grades nave fluctuated up AM
down to a rather surprising degree
To my knowledge, we have neve
had any large number of percentag
Of variation between the live an
carcass grades. / doubt that it woul
be more than A or S percent differ
ence, and at times the live gradin
is under the carcass grade and .
times it is over.
So we have not been too muc
concerned about that particular sid
of it. I do feel this is true, howeve
that there is some difference in til
standards of the federal carca:
graders in various parts of the couI
try. / believe from what / have oil
served, that there is wider varii
ton in their grades than in Il
grading of most of the hvestoC
judges, and, as / mentioned pr,
viously, we have found that as ru
our steers are not graded up or dow
to a large extent, but have had vari
tons in opinions concerning the an
mails.
If you receive any more opinion
on this particular subject, certain
would be very happy to have a COZ
of them, as this is a basic profile
that faces all shows.

Is Upheld by Court
BY the Associated Press

SIOUX CITY. Iowa. July 10.-A
ruling that private corporations in
Iowa may discriminate against
minority groups in certain in.
stances was on file in District
Court here today.
District Judge Ralph Crary
made the ruling in connection
with one portion of q $3.50, 900
damage suit filed by Mrs. Evelyn
Rice against cemetery which de-
clined to permit burial Of her In
dian war hero husband.
The burial rites last August, for
Sergt. John Rice, Winnebago In
dian who was killed in the Korean
war. were halted when Memorial
Park Cemetery Association said
the interment contract with the
widow could not be carried out
because its regulations forbade
burial of non-CaucaSians.
President Truman made the in
cident national affair when he
arranged for Sergt. Rice's burial
in Arlington National Cemetery.
Judge Crary, in ruling on Mrs.
Rice's contention that the racial
discrimination clause in her con-
tract violated Iowa law, the United
States Constitution and the United
Nations Charter. held that dis
elimination by q privately-owned
cemetery was mot a matter, of
public policy" The widows at
torneys said they would appeal to

ception at Eisenhower headquart-

on the matter, bearing out indi-
cations that became increasingly
evident after the dramatic con-

In the group that went to the

ponder the Eisenhower victories
in the Georgia and Texas dele

wanted Gen. Eisenhower as thel
Republican nominee for President.
Since my arrival here am con-

In addition to this I believe, that
Gen. Eisenhower is one of. the
most capable and outstanding
leaders of our time"

CHICAGO. July 10.-"Congrat-
ulations. It looks like you've goi
a winner"
So said Maryland's Senator
Butler to Gov. McKeldin after the
Republican National Convention
delivered smashing victories tt
Gen. Eisenhower on the Texas anc
Georgia delegates contests.
For the Governor. it was a mo-
|ment of triumph because the COM
pliment came from Maryland's s
most persistent supporter of Sem
ator Taft for the presidential
nomination.
And Gov. McKeldin was all SCI
to carry new honors for the Free
State when he delivers a speech
nominating Gen. Eisenhower later
today. The 12-minute script is ir
its final form.
The order of nominations was
to be like this:
Alabama. first on the roll, will
yield to Illinois whose Senator
Dirksen, a powerful speaker, will
place Senator Taft's name before
the convention. There will be a
number of seconding speeches.
Gov. Warren of California will
be nominated next and when the
roll call reaches Colorado, that
State will yield to. Maryland, at
which time Gov. McKeldin will
take over the roStrum for Gen
Eisenhower.
The speech will be cast on a
high plane with no direct refer
ence to Senator Taft.
There was only one incident last
night to mar an otherwise perfect
day for the Governor. who had
promised to deliver at least Ia
votes from his State to Gen
Eisenhower. That was when the
Maryland delegation gave the TAFT
forces four more votes on the
Georgia contest than when a "faii
play" rule was adopted on the
opening day.
All Over Now, McKeldin Says.
On Monday, the State delega-
ton voted 10 to S against Taft
sponsored amendment to the "fail
play" rule. Last night they still
went with Gov. McKeldin. but only
by a vote of Is to 9 in favor Of the
Eisenhower forces on the Georgia
question.
But when the total convention
vote of GOT to 531 in favor Of Gen
Eisenhower was announced. Gov
McKeldin said: II think it's al
over now"
There was no opportunity te
count noses on the Texas dispute
because of the motion to decide
the issue by unanimous approval
Considerable mos" were heare
Throughout the convention hall.
Although there was a net los:
