Sec. 20.
Whenever the state public administrator or a county public administrator shall be appointed fiduciary of any estate under the provisions of this act, and it shall subsequently appear or be discovered that the deceased left surviving a husband, wife, or next of kin entitled to a distributive share in such estate, and such heir or next of kin shall, under the provisions of the general probate laws of this state, be competent and willing to administer such estate, the state public administrator or such county public administrator shall nevertheless continue as fiduciary of such estate. When such fiduciary shall be the state public administrator, the judge of probate, before making the order assigning the residue in any such estate and wherein the residue is not assigned to the state of Michigan as an escheated estate, shall first allow and order paid to the said state public administrator out of the corpus of said estate, all of the expenses incurred by such fiduciary in administering said estate, together with such other fees, compensation and allowances as are authorized by the general probate laws of this state and by order of such probate judge to be paid to such fiduciary out of such estate. All monies so paid to the state public administrator shall be forthwith delivered by him to the state treasurer, who in turn, shall place such money to the credit of the general fund of the state.
