eligible to participate beginning on the next January 1.

Plan Amendment

Effective January 1, 1998, the Plan Administrator amended the 
provisions of the Plan pertaining to the valuation date used to 
value assets of the Plan.  This amendment requires the Plan 
Trustee to value the assets held in each separate fund as of 
the close of business each day.  The Trustee shall appraise 
them at their market or estimated fair value each day and 
reflect increases or decreases in the value of each separate 
fund.  Previously, assets of the Plan were valued once a month.

    Payments of Benefits

Upon termination of service, a participant may elect to receive 
either a lump sum amount equal to the value of his or her 
account or may purchase an annuity payable from a life 
insurance company.  Amounts allocated to participants who have 
elected to withdraw from the Plan but have not been paid were 
$122,742 at December 31, 1996.  There were no benefits 
allocated from the Plan for participants at December 31, 1997.

    Employee Savings Contributions

Subject to limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, 
eligible employees may contribute up to 18% of pay (as defined  
in the Plan) through a combination of before-tax and after-tax 
payroll deductions.  The maximum before-tax contribution for 
the 1997 calendar year is $9,500.  Employees are immediately 
vested in their savings contributions.

Xerox Corporation matches 35% of employee savings 
contributions, up to a maximum match equaling 4% of annual pay.  
These contributions are made annually to eligible participants 
of record on the last day of February following the Plan year 
end.  The 1997 contribution recorded on March 23, 1998 was 
$2,210,367.

    Xerox Optional Profit Sharing Contributions

Eligible employees may receive an optional profit sharing 
contribution from the sponsor.  The contribution ranges from 
zero to 10% of pay and is based upon the return on assets (ROA) 
of the Xerox Document Processing industry segment as defined in 
the Plan document.

An employee may receive the contribution in cash or Xerox 
Corporation common stock, or may elect to invest all or part of 
the contribution on a tax deferred basis, subject to limits 
imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, through the Plan's 
investment funds.  Employees are immediately vested in optional 
profit sharing contributions.

During 1997, the sponsor's ROA was 18.0%, which resulted in an 
optional profit sharing contribution for all eligible active 
employees at December 31, 1997 equal to 10.0% of pay or 
$21,233,886.  Participants elected to invest $4,475,389 into 
the Plan at December 31, 1997.

During 1996, the sponsor's ROA was 17.8%, which resulted in an 
optional profit sharing contribution for all eligible active 
employees at December 31, 1996 equal to 10.0% of pay or 
$20,644,353.  Participants elected to invest $3,077,165 into 
the Plan at December 31, 1996.

    Investment Funds

As further described in note 3, the investment funds are part 
of the Xerox Trust Agreement to Fund Retirement Plans (Master 
Trust).  Employees can direct their plan accounts to one or 
more of the following six investment funds:

International Stock Fund - Invests primarily in stocks 
of companies based in economically developed countries 
of Europe and Asia.

U.S. Stock Fund - Invests primarily in stocks of medium 
to large U.S. companies.

Small Company Stock Fund - Invests primarily in stocks 
of smaller U.S. companies that fund managers believe 
have greater value than indicated by the current market 
price, or above average prospects for long-term growth.

Balanced Fund - Under normal market conditions, invests 
approximately 70% in stocks; most of the remainder in 
bonds; some real estate, private placements, and cash.  
The mix may shift with market outlook.

Income Fund - Invests in contracts with insurance 
companies and banks; short to intermediate duration, 
high quality bonds.

Xerox Stock Fund - Invests in Xerox Corporation common 
stock and cash for administrative purposes.

(1) Description of Plan, Continued

    Segregated Assets Fund

This fund was established on April 1, 1991 and represented 
participant investments in certain guaranteed investment 
contracts which were segregated and frozen.  In 1996, all 
remaining investments in the Segregated Assets Fund were fully 
recovered.  See note 4 to the financial statements for further 
discussion.

    Employee Loan Fund

Participants are permitted to borrow from their profit sharing 
savings accounts subject to certain limitations.  The loans are 
payable over terms up to 14.5 years and bear interest at the 
quarterly Citibank commercial prime rate in effect at the time 
of loan issuance plus 1%.  Principal and interest payments on 
the loans are redeposited into the participants' accounts based 
on their current investment allocation elections.  Loans are 
issued at market value.  At December 31, 1997, market value on 
loans approximates fair value.

 (2) Federal Income Taxes

The Plan obtained its latest determination letter from the 
Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on September 8, 1995, covering 
Plan amendments through December 31, 1994, indicating that the 
Plan, as designed, was in compliance with the applicable 
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.  The Plan 
administrator and Plan's internal tax counsel believe that the 
Plan, as currently designed and operated, is in compliance with 
the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.  
Accordingly, they believe that the Plan was qualified and the 
related trust was tax-exempt as of the financial statement 
date.

As long as the Plan continues to be qualified under present 
federal income tax laws and regulations, participants will not 
be taxed on company contributions or on investment earnings on 
such contributions at the time such contributions and 
investment earnings are received by the trustee, but may be 
subject to tax thereon at such time as they receive 
distributions under the Plan.

(3) Master Trust

As discussed in note 1, the Plan participates in the Master 
Trust.  The following other Xerox employee benefit plans also 
participate in the Master Trust as of December 31, 1997:

Xerox Corporation Profit Sharing and Savings Plan;

Xerox Corporation Retirement Income Guarantee Plan; and

The Master Trust has six investment pools -- the International 
Stock Pool, U.S. Stock Pool, Small Company Stock Pool, All 
Other Pool, Income Fund, and the Xerox Stock Fund.  

Participants direct their accounts into investment funds, as 
described in note 1, which participate in the aforementioned 
investment pools.  Each of the plans has an ownership interest 
in one or more of these investment pools in accordance with 
that interest as determined by participant fund elections.  For 
the year ended December 31, 1997, accrued administrative 
expenses and due from (to) other funds activity is recorded at 
both the Master Trust and plan level.  Prior to December 31, 
1997, this activity was accrued only at the plan level.  In 
addition, prior to December 31, 1996 there was a Segregated 
Assets Fund which is discussed in note 4.

(3) Master Trust, Continued

The Joint Administrative Board (JAB) is responsible for 
establishing investment guidelines, reviewing the investment 
decisions and reviewing investment results.  The JAB consists 
at present of three Xerox Corporation representatives and five 
union representatives.

Marketable securities are valued at the last reported sales 
price on the last business day of the year.  Quotations are 
obtained from national securities exchanges or, in instances 
where securities are not listed on any of the exchanges, 
quotations are obtained from brokerage firms.

Non-readily marketable investments, which include private 
placements, are carried at fair value, based on the cost of the 
investments, developments concerning the portfolio of 
investments of the private placements, and such other factors 
as the managing general partners of these investments consider 
relevant.  The valuations do not necessarily represent amounts 
which might ultimately be realized from the investments.

The value of the investment contracts with insurance companies 
and banks is at contract value, which approximates fair value.  
In connection with the investment contracts, all of which are 
fully benefit-responsive, the following information is 
presented:

   (i) The average investment yields for the years ended December 
31, 1997 and 1996 were 6.8% and 7.3%, respectively.

  (ii) The crediting interest rates at December 31, 1997 and 1996 
ranged from 4.4% to 9.3%.

 (iii) The fair value, as determined by discounting estimated 
future cash flows for traditional GIC's, and the market 
value of the underlying investments and the associated 
wrapper for synthetic GIC's at December 31, 1997 and 1996 
was $274,344,245 and $588,280,797, respectively.  Contract 
values were $278,816,783 and $584,047,966 at December 31, 
1997 and 1996, respectively.

The Master Trust invests in real estate group trusts.  These 
trusts provide pension and profit sharing plans with a medium 
for pooling their funds for investment in income producing real 
estate.  The investment trusts value real estate holdings at 
estimated market value based upon independent appraisals, 
consideration of significant changes in economic circumstances, 
and capital additions made to properties after the appraisal 
date.  Such market value estimates necessarily involve 
subjective judgments.  Accordingly, the actual market price of 
the real estate can only be determined by negotiation between 
independent third parties in a sales transaction.

Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade date 
basis.  Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.  
Interest income is recorded as earned.  Margin variation 
represents market fluctuations on futures investments.

(3) Master Trust, Continued

Derivative financial instruments are used by the Master Trust's 
equity and balanced portfolio investment managers primarily to 
rebalance the fixed income/equity allocation of the Master 
Trust's portfolio and to hedge the currency risk component of 
the Master Trust's foreign investments.  Certain of the Master 
Trust's fixed income investment managers are permitted to use 
certain specified types of derivative instruments as part of 
their respective strategies.  These strategies include the use 
of futures and options as substitutes for certain types of 
fixed income securities.  Leveraging of the Master Trust's 
assets and speculation are prohibited.  Currency hedge 
positions are not permitted to exceed the level of exposure in 
the related Master Trust's assets.

The derivatives most commonly used by the investment managers 
are highly liquid exchange traded equity and fixed income 
futures and over-the-counter foreign exchange forward 
contracts.  The use of derivative instruments is not believed 
to materially increase the credit or market risk of the Master 
Trust's investment.

(4) Segregated Assets Fund - Investment Contracts with Executive 
Life Insurance Company

On April 11, 1991, the California Department of Insurance (CDI) 
took over Executive Life Insurance Company (ELIC) citing a 
"serious danger of insolvency" and temporarily suspended all 
payments on Guaranteed Investment Contracts (GICs) issued by 
ELIC.  Effective April 1, 1991, in order to treat all 
participants fairly, $66 million in affected assets were 
transferred into a Segregated Assets Fund.

Through December 31, 1996, the Xerox retirement and savings 
plans have received $67.6 million in payments related to the 
ELIC investments.  These payments represent the recovery of 
100% of each participant's original investment plus $1.6 
million in interest.  Should Xerox receive additional payments 
from ELIC for unrecognized interest income associated with the 
original GIC's, the proceeds will be allocated to those 
participants originally invested in ELIC based upon their 
percent interest on April 11, 1991.  All future proceeds will 
be recorded through the income fund and transferred to other 
funds based on a participant's allocation elections at the time 
of receipt.

(5) Unit Values

The interests of Plan participants in each of the funds is 
expressed in terms of units, representing undivided interests 
in the net assets of the fund.  Unit value is calculated 
monthly by dividing the total value of net assets of each fund 
(reduced by employer contributions receivable not yet received 
by the Master Trust, by unaccrued benefit payments and other 
reconciling items) by units outstanding at the valuation date.  
At December 31, 1997, all accrued administrative expenses and 
interfund activity is recorded at both the Master Trust and 
plan levels.  The total number of units and net asset value per 
unit outstanding during the year ended December 31, 1997 was as 
follows:

	  International Fund       U.S. Stock Fund      Small Company Fund

Independent Auditors' Report



The Plan Administrator and Participants 
The Profit Sharing Plan of Xerox Corporation and
      The Xerographic Division, Union of Needletrades,
      Industrial and Textile Employees,
      A.F.L. - C.I.O. - C.L.C.:


We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets 
available for plan benefits of The Profit Sharing Plan of Xerox 
Corporation and The Xerographic Division, Union of 
Needletrades, Industrial and Textile Employees, A.F.L. - C.I.O 
- - C.L.C. (Plan) as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the 
related statements of changes in net assets available for plan 
benefits for the years then ended.  These financial statements 
are the responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our 
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial 
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted 
auditing standards.  Those standards require that we plan and 
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether 
the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An 
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting 
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An 
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used 
and significant estimates made by management, as well as 
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We 
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our 
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above 
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets 
available for plan benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 1997 
and 1996, and the changes in net assets available for plan 
benefits for the years then ended in conformity with generally 
accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion 
on the basic financial statements taken as a whole.  The 
supplemental schedule of assets held for investment purposes is 
presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a 
required part of the basic financial statements, but is 
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's 
Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the 
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  These 
supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's 
management.  The fund information in the statements of net 
assets available for plan benefits and the statements of 
changes in net assets available for plan benefits is presented 
for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the 
net assets available for plan benefits and changes in the net 
assets available for plan benefits of each fund.  The 
supplemental schedule and fund information have been subjected 
to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic 
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in 
all material respects in relation to the basic financial 
statements taken as a whole.
