CHAIRMAN'S CIRCLE MEMBER LETTER

(company logo)


Dear Sir/Madam:

FINDING A SAFE,  HIGH  YIELDING  INVESTMENT  was much  easier when CD rates were
8-10%.  Today, CD and money market rates barely keep pace with  inflation.  Once
you  factor in the taxes on your  earnings,  you'll be lucky to come out  ahead.
That's why it makes sense for long-term  investors to explore  alternatives  for
higher yields.

The U.S. GOVERNMENT SECURITIES SAVINGS FUND is a savings fund where you can earn
more for your money. It strives to provide one of THE HIGHEST  GOVERNMENT  MONEY
MARKET FUND YIELDS in the nation.  The Fund's proven track record offers you the
superior  performance  you  need  to  make  your  money  grow  in an  ultra-safe
investment.

Your  YIELD  IS  HIGHER  because  we  GUARANTEE  LOW   EXPENSES*.   By  limiting
checkwriting  to  amounts  of $500 or  more,  the  Fund's  transaction  fees are
reduced. In turn, the expense ratio is lowered,  providing our shareholders with
a higher yield.

ENHANCE YOUR INTEREST BEARING  INVESTMENT  PORTFOLIO by looking at U.S. Global's
U.S.  GOVERNMENT  SECURITIES  SAVINGS FUND and take  advantage of the  following
features:

     $1,000 initial  investment 
     Free checkwriting  privileges 
     Write checks for $500 or more 
     Dividends paid daily 
     24-hour automated account access
     Direct deposit available

   -------------------------                    ---------------------------
      7-Day Simple Yield                          7-Day Effective Yield 
             5.33%                                         5.47%
   -------------------------                    ---------------------------
      (as of 12/31/97)                               (as of 12/31/97)

In addition,  all Chairman's  Circle  benefits  would apply.  We look forward to
providing you, our Chairman's  Circle  shareholder with a safe, higher yielding,
tax advantaged solution for your savings.

Sincerely,

/S/FRANK HOLMES

Frank E. Holmes
