                           AN OVERVIEW OF THE MARKETS
       -----------------------------------------------------------------

    At this time last year, we said that the long-term outlook for stocks and
bonds seemed more promising and under appreciated than we had observed in a long
time. Even though rising interest rates caused us to question the strength of
the economy at the beginning of 1995, favorable productivity trends, a benign
inflationary environment, and a more fiscally responsible government created an
extremely hospitable environment for financial assets. Long-term interest rates
fell more than expected, and stock prices benefited from the fall in bond yields
as well as from earnings that were far better than expected. And while economic
activity was uneven throughout the year, growth generally met the Federal
Reserve Board's objectives of advancing slowly without inflationary pressures.

</TABLE>

    As we enter 1996, an uncertainty exists as to how aggressive the Fed will be
in lowering interest rates. One view is that the Fed needs to be aggressive in
continuing to lower rates to ensure that the economy recovers from the current
slowdown and avoids recession. Others believe that the underlying economy is
growing at a rate of 2% to 2 1/2% and that only modest easing is necessary. Even
after the rate cut in January, however, short-term rates at 5 1/4% seem high
compared to inflation at 2 1/2% to 3%. This suggests that the Fed has the
flexibility to be aggressive in lowering rates if necessary, particularly since
the dollar has stabilized and interest rates overseas are continuing to decline.

    When short-term rates go down, they tend to influence long-term rates
downward as well. Lower long-term rates, in turn, argue for somewhat higher
price/earnings (P/E) ratios. Compared to inflation and bond yields, P/E ratios
seem fairly valued -- but not cheap. This is surprising given the exceptional
gain in stock prices during 1995.

Cautious Optimism

    We do not expect earnings growth to match last year's spectacular showing.
In fact, we believe the rate of earnings gain could be flat to up 5% in 1996,
since much of the corporate restructuring that drove earnings growth last year
has been completed and nominal sales growth is so low. Finally, continued
declines in interest rates cannot begin to match the dramatic declines of last
year.
    Nevertheless, we remain optimistic about the financial markets for 1996, and
we view the long-range outlook as favorable. The number of Americans reaching
their peak savings years is on the rise. The government drive to reduce budget
deficits seems more serious than at any other time in recent history; it's less
a question of whether to balance the budget, but how quickly to do it. Declining
interest rates and low inflation in the U.S. and throughout the industrial world
suggest the possibility of global pickup in economic activity in late 1996 or
early 1997.
    Our main concern is that many of the investors lured into the stock market
over the last several years may have been spoiled by low volatility and constant
gains. With this in mind, a short-term sell-off might be healthy for the
long-term outlook. But as events stand today, the long-term bull market seems
intact, even if stock prices don't increase as much or as rapidly as last year.

Current Strategy

    With the economy growing slowly, inflation under control, low interest
rates, and good cash flow into mutual funds, we believe that this is a favorable
environment for financial assets. However, upside earnings surprises will be
more difficult to uncover. Companies that stand out will be those that continue
to innovate, cut costs, compete globally, react to technological changes, and
effectively manage their labor force.
    Our research will focus on identifying companies that can meet these
challenges and enjoy above-average earnings growth. Other themes or sectors that
we find attractive at this time include overcapitalized industries with the
prospects of restructuring (such as insurance, business and consumer services
organizations), smaller capitalized companies, and more defensive, dividend-
paying industries such as real estate investment trusts (REITs). We also believe
energy companies, certain technology stocks with favorable product cycles, and
industries benefiting from the aging of America (e.g., health care) offer
attractive opportunities.

    The following pages contain discussions of the investment activity occurring
in the Columbia Funds (except for the Money Market Fund) during 1995, along with
graphs illustrating the growth of $10,000 during various time periods. Each Fund
compares its performance to its relevant benchmark index. Unlike the Funds,
however, the indices are not actively managed and have no operating expenses,
portfolio transaction costs, or cash flows.
    As always, we appreciate your continuing confidence in Columbia Funds.

       -----------------------------------------------------------------

                           COLUMBIA COMMON STOCK FUND
    Columbia Common Stock Fund had a total return of 30.84% for the twelve
months ended December 31, 1995. The Fund was underweighted in technology issues
early in the year, a period when these stocks were among the leaders of the
market's advance. In addition, the Fund did not benefit from its greater than
market weightings in REITs and energy stocks until the second half of the year.
    Beginning in the third quarter, we became increasingly concerned about the
pace of economic activity and the implications of slower earnings growth for
economically sensitive companies. Accordingly, we reduced our portoflio exposure
to cyclical issues and increased our investments in more stable growth
industries such as health care and financial services. In addition, during price
weakness in the technology sector, we increased our weighting in selected issues
that we believed would benefit from very favorable product cycles. Combined with
our continued overweighting in energy, these strategic moves enabled the Fund to
outperform the S&P 500 during the fourth quarter.

                              COLUMBIA GROWTH FUND
    Columbia Growth Fund posted a total return of 32.98% during the twelve
months ended December 31, 1995.
    During the year, the Fund sought out opportunities in those industries
undergoing restructuring or consolidation, such as retail, gaming and health
care. During the second half, as earnings growth slowed, we emphasized companies
with steady and visible growth, as well as financial issues that we believed
would benefit from a declining interest rate environment. Investments in these
areas contributed positively to Fund performance.
    The Fund seeks value by focusing on companies with superior earnings growth
and profitability characteristics at reasonable prices. Currently, we believe
sectors that meet this criteria are insurance, business and consumer services,
energy, health care, and certain technology stocks with favorable product
cycles.
    We are positive about the outlook for inflation and interest rates in the
year ahead. Earnings growth is not expected to be nearly as strong as it was
throughout 1995. While we are optimistic about the prospects for equities in the
long run, we do not expect returns to be as exceptional as they were in 1995.

                       COLUMBIA INTERNATIONAL STOCK FUND
    Columbia International Stock Fund posted a total return of 5.15% for 1995.
Following a difficult first half, the Fund's performance improved significantly
in the final two quarters. While the declining stock market in Japan and a hedge
against the yen hurt performance during the first six months of the year, our
exposure in Japan helped returns during the second half.
    The Japanese stock market struggled during the first quarter after the Kobe
earthquake, which upset economic forecasts. In addition, the yen experienced a
sharp increase against the dollar, contrary to nearly all expectations. These
factors affected investor confidence and Japanese companies found it difficult
to compete worldwide. In the second half, conditions in Japan began to show
signs of improvement. The Bank of Japan acted to reverse the strength of the yen
versus the dollar, and the Japanese banking crisis began moving toward
resolution. As a result, we increased emphasis on Japanese exporters such as
autos and electronics.
    The Fund also gained ground in the U.K., Germany, and Switzerland. During
the fourth quarter, we focused on interest rate-sensitive issues, which
responded to the declining trend in interest rates. Also, during the fourth
quarter we increased somewhat our investments in emerging markets, many of which
had struggled for two years, focusing primarily on Brazil and Hong Kong.

                             COLUMBIA SPECIAL FUND
    For the year ended December 31, 1995, Columbia Special Fund was up 29.53%,
outperforming the Russell 2000 Stock Index at 28.44%. In the first half of the
year, the Fund benefited from holdings in technology, energy and machinery
companies, as well as from interest rate-sensitive financial services stocks. At
the same time, weak performance in consumer-related sectors, such as retailing,
detracted from performance early in the year.
    During the second half, positions in natural gas, energy, health care and
business services helped performance, while our holdings in brokerage, consumer
credit, and retailing held back returns. A slowing economy and moderate
inflation level are expected to set a positive stage for interest rates. Until
the Federal Reserve responds more aggressively to slower growth, low inflation
and, perhaps a credible budget balancing act, we will continue to concentrate on
issues with earnings visibility. As further easing occurs, we will seek out
small growth companies in niche industries whose spending cycles are not
completely dependent on the pace of the economy. Our focus, therefore, remains
on the production side of the economy versus the consumer-oriented sectors.

  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

                        COLUMBIA REAL ESTATE EQUITY FUND
    Columbia Real Estate Equity Fund posted a total return of 16.86% for the
year ended December 31, 1995, which compares to 15.27% for the NAREIT Equity
Index for the same period.
    During the first half of the year, the strong momentum and price gains of
the S&P 500 kept investors' attention away from the real estate market and real
estate equities, which limited the Fund's performance. In the second half, as
investors became increasingly aware of softness in the economy, and began to
focus more on defensive, dividend-generating securities, such as real estate
investment trusts (REITs), Fund returns improved. This is particularly true in
the fourth quarter, the strongest quarter of the year for the Fund.
    Above-market weightings in the office, industrial and hotel sectors
contributed positively to Fund performance, as did our commitment to certain
residential issues that we indentified as being undervalued. We limited our
exposure to the depressed retail sector, reflecting our view that fundamentals
remain soft for these properties.

                             COLUMBIA BALANCED FUND
    Columbia Balanced Fund posted a total return of 25.08% during 1995. On
December 31, 1995, the Fund had an asset allocation of 53% stocks, 42% bonds,
and 5% cash equivalents.
    Because the Fund uses the same investment criteria as Columbia Common Stock
Fund and Columbia Fixed Income Securities Fund, please refer to pages 3 and 6
for additional information about how the Fund was managed during the year.
    As 1995 progressed, we looked for gradual slowing of economic momentum. We
emphasized sectors likely to produce steady earnings gains such as health care,
and others poised to benefit from falling interest rates such as banking and
financial services. The Fund's holdings in cyclical areas, including technology,
were generally underweighted versus the market.
    We look for further economic deceleration, and have maintained a significant
exposure in the financial services area, most recently adding to holdings in
insurance. Anticipating that steady earnings gains will command greater investor
attention, we have added to health care and consumer staples holdings. Finally,
we have gradually begun to increase our exposure in certain technology issues,
which enjoy favorable product cycle prospects that are not fully discounted and
offer good value.

                            COLUMBIA U.S. GOVERNMENT
                                SECURITIES FUND
    The U.S. Government Securities Fund posted a total return of 10.21% for the
twelve months ended December 31, 1995. Throughout the period, the bond market
enjoyed a strong rally driven by declining interest rates. During the year, for
example, yields dropped by roughly 2.50% for 3-year Treasuries, the maximum
maturity allowed for the Fund.
    The Federal Reserve Board eased interest rates twice during the year. On
July 6, the Fed lowered the Federal Fund's rate from 6% to 5 3/4% and eased
another .25% on December 19. To capitalize on declining rates, the Fund
maintained a relatively long average maturity, closing the year with an average
maturity of 2.45 years.
    Looking ahead, we believe the bond market should respond favorably to the
government's drive to reduce budget deficits. Due to weak economic growth and
inflationary pressure, we expect short-term rates to continue declining as the
Fed eases again in the coming months. Therefore, we plan to maintain an average
maturity in the Fund of approximately 2.5 years.

                             COLUMBIA FIXED INCOME
                                SECURITIES FUND
    Columbia Fixed Income Securities Fund returned 18.91% in 1995, versus 18.47%
by the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index for the same period.
    Early in the year, a weakening economy and Federal Reserve stimulus pushed
interest rates lower, triggering a bond market rally that lasted well into the
second half. In this environment, the Fund benefited from a duration that was
slightly longer than the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index. The Fund also benefited
from an overweighting in corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities.
Throughout the period, we maintained an average maturity of 6.5 years and a
duration of slightly over 5 years.
    Over the next three to six months, we expect moderate economic growth, which
should cause interest rates to remain stable or modestly decline. Inflation
should remain subdued, enabling the Federal Reserve Board to lower short-term
interest rates as it deems necessary.
    We continue to seek above-average returns while maintaining our conservative
investing strategy regarding credit quality, derivatives, diversification, and
intermediate average maturity. The Fund's average credit quality remains high,
with approximately 88% of the Fund's securities rated A or better at year-end.

  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

                          COLUMBIA MUNICIPAL BOND FUND
    Columbia Municipal Bond Fund posted a total return of 14.15% for the year
ended December 31, 1995. While the Fund participated in the powerful bond market
rally of 1995, the municipal sector continued to experience somewhat dampened
performance due to the various tax reform proposals currently under discussion
by Congress. It is difficult to predict which plan, if any, will ultimately pass
or how such plans will affect the value of municipal securities, but the
resulting uncertainty continues to worry investors.
    The overall strategy of the Fund remains conservative. Currently, 98% of the
portfolio is rated A or better. The Fund devotes more than half its portfolio to
general obligation bonds, based on our belief that their returns and credit
quality are more solid than other municipal issues. The average maturity remains
intermediate term; that is, approximately 10 years. Duration continues to hover
around 6.5 years. At year-end, the Fund held 246 different issues, and was
broadly diversified within the State of Oregon. We believe that Columbia
Municipal Bond Fund will provide a high after-tax return to investors over a
full interest rate cycle, and will do so with a low level of credit and
volatility risk.

                            COLUMBIA HIGH YIELD FUND
    Columbia High Yield Fund was up 19.12% for the 12 months ended December 31,
1995. The high yield bond market benefited from declining interest rates
throughout most of the year. Yields of 10-year Treasury notes, for example,
dropped .60% during the fourth quarter alone, with a total decline of 2.25% for
the year. (When interest rates fall, bond prices rise).
    Slow economic growth, a weak retail sector, and a slight increase in overall
bankruptcy filings had a negative effect on the high yield market. However,
because of the high credit quality of the high yield bonds held in the
portfolio, the Fund continued to outperform many of its peers during the period.
In sector emphasis, the Fund focused on forest products, metals and mining, and
hotels and gaming during the first half and gradually rotated to health care and
media during the second half. At year-end, the Fund held 52 different issues.
    Looking ahead, the Fund expects to continue emphasizing health care, energy
and manufacturing. With slow but steady economic growth, combined with low
absolute yields available from alternative investments, this Fund should remain
attractive to investors seeking high yield and diversification in their
portfolios.

1. Significant accounting policies:
    The Columbia Funds (the Funds) consist of Columbia Common Stock Fund, Inc.
(CCSF), Columbia Growth Fund, Inc. (CGF), Columbia International Stock Fund,
Inc. (CISF), Columbia Special Fund, Inc. (CSF), Columbia Real Estate Equity
Fund, Inc. (CREF), Columbia Balanced Fund, Inc. (CBF), Columbia Daily Income
Company (CDIC), Columbia U.S. Government Securities Fund, Inc. (CUSG), Columbia
Fixed Income Securities Fund, Inc. (CFIS), Columbia Municipal Bond Fund, Inc.
(CMBF), and Columbia High Yield Fund, Inc. (CHYF). All Funds, except CMBF, are
open-end, diversified investment companies registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended. CMBF is an open-end, non-diversified investment
company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The
policies described below are consistently followed by the Funds in the
preparation of their financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

    Investment valuation - The values of CCSF, CGF, CISF, CSF, CREF and CBF
equity investments are based on the last sale prices reported by the principal
securities exchanges on which the investments are traded, or, in the absence of
recorded sales, at the closing bid prices on such exchanges or over-the-counter
markets. Temporary cash investments in short-term securities (principally
repurchase agreements) are valued at cost, which approximates market.
    CDIC investments are carried at values deemed best to reflect their fair
values as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of officers of
CDIC specifically so authorized by its Directors. These values are based on cost
adjusted for amortization of discount or premium and accrued interest, unless
unusual circumstances indicate that another method of determining fair value
should be considered.
    CBF, CUSG, CFIS, CMBF and CHYF fixed income investments are carried at
values deemed best to reflect their fair values as determined in good faith by
or under the supervision of officers of CBF, CUSG, CFIS, CMBF and CHYF,
specifically so authorized by their Directors. These values are based on market
value as quoted by dealers who are market makers in these securities or by an
independent pricing service unless unusual circumstances indicate that another
method of determining fair value should be considered. Market values for CBF,
CUSG, CFIS and CHYF fixed income investments are based on the average of bid and
ask prices and market value for CMBF is based on bid prices, or by reference to
other securities with comparable ratings, interest rates and maturities.
Temporary cash investments in short-term securities (principally repurchase
agreements) are valued at cost, which approximates market.

    Futures contracts - CSF occasionally utilizes futures contracts to hedge
against market conditions affecting the value of securities that CSF owns or
intends to purchase. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and the
variation margin is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When a futures
contract is closed, a realized gain or loss is recorded equal to the difference
between the opening and closing value of the contract. Net realized losses
arising from such transactions were not significant for the year ended December
31, 1995 and are included in realized losses on investment transactions. CSF had
no outstanding contracts at December 31, 1995.

    Forward foreign currency exchange contracts - In connection with portfolio
purchases and sales of securities denominated in a foreign currency, CISF enters
into forward foreign currency exchange contracts (contracts). Additionally, CISF
enters into contracts to hedge certain other foreign currency denominated
assets. Contracts are recorded at market value. CISF could be exposed to risks
if counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their
contracts or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably. Net
realized losses arising from such transactions amounted to $1,420,747 and are
included in net realized loss from foreign currency related transactions. CISF
had no outstanding hedge contracts at December 31, 1995.

1. Significant accounting policies (continued):
    Foreign currency translations - The books and records of CISF are maintained
in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency transactions are translated into U.S. dollars
on the following basis:
         (i) market value of investment securities, other assets, and
    liabilities at the daily rates of exchange, and
        (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and interest
             income and certain expenses at the rates of exchange prevailing on
             the respective dates of such transactions.
    CISF does not separate that portion of the results of operations resulting
from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations
arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are
included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
    Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales and
maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, currency gains
or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities
transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and
foreign withholding taxes recorded on CISF's books and the U.S. dollar
equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign
exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and
liabilities, other than investments in securities, resulting from changes in
exchange rates.

    Interest and dividend income - Interest income is recorded on the accrual
basis and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. The majority of
dividend income recorded by CREF is from Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs).
For tax purposes, a portion of these dividends consist of capital gains and
return of capital. For financial reporting purposes, these dividends are
recorded as dividend income. For the year ended December 31, 1995, the return of
capital portion of such distributions amounted to approximately 31%.

    Shareholder distributions - CCSF, CREF and CBF distribute net investment
income quarterly and any net realized gains from investment transactions
annually. CGF, CISF and CSF distribute net investment income and any net
realized gains annually. CDIC distributes its net investment income daily -
including any realized investment gains or losses. CUSG, CFIS, CMBF and CHYF
distribute their net investment income monthly and any net realized gains
annually. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the record date.
    Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for
foreign currency transactions, net operating losses, deferral of losses from
wash sales and return of capital received from Real Estate Investment Trusts.

    Federal income taxes - The Funds have made no provision for federal income
taxes on net investment income or net realized gains from sales of securities,
since it is the intention of the Funds to comply with the provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code available to certain investment companies, and to make
distributions of income and security profits sufficient to relieve them from
substantially all federal income taxes.
    As of December 31, 1995, certain Funds have capital loss carryovers
available to offset future capital gains as follows:

    To the extent that the capital loss carryovers are used to offset any
capital gains, it is unlikely that the gains so offset will be distributed to
shareholders.

1. Significant accounting policies (continued):
    Other - Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the
investments are purchased or sold. The cost of investments sold is determined by
the use of the specific identification method for both financial reporting and
income tax purposes. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions and
unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments are reported on the basis
of identified costs. The Funds, through their custodians, receive delivery of
underlying securities collateralizing repurchase agreements (included in
temporary cash investments). Market values of these securities are required to
be at least 100% of the cost of the repurchase agreements. The Funds' investment
advisor determines that the value of the underlying securities is at all times
at least equal to the resale price. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the
other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral may
be subject to legal proceedings.
    CHYF invests in lower rated debt securities, which may be more susceptible
to adverse economic conditions than investment grade holdings. These securities
are often subordinated to the prior claims of other senior lenders, and
uncertainties exist as to an issuer's ability to meet principal and interest
payments. At December 31, 1995, 95% of the Fund's portfolio was invested in
securities rated Ba (58%) or B (37%) by Moody's Investor Services, Inc.; the
remaining 5% of the portfolio was invested in a U.S. Treasury Bond.

2. Investment transactions:
    Aggregate purchases, sales and maturities, net realized gain (loss) and
unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of securities, including temporary cash
investments for CDIC and excluding temporary cash investments for all other
Funds, as of and for the period ended December 31, 1995, were as follows:

    We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities,
including the schedules of investments for each of the eleven funds comprising
Columbia Funds, as of December 31, 1995, the related statements of operations
for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the
two years in the period then ended, except for CREF which is for the period from
inception, March 16, 1994 to December 31, 1994 and for the year ended December
31, 1995, and the financial highlights for the periods indicated therein. These
financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
    We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of
December 31, 1995 by correspondence with the custodian, and confirmation by
correspondence with brokers as to securities purchased but not received at that
date, or other auditing procedures where confirmations from brokers were not
received. 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 and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
eleven funds comprising Columbia Funds as of December 31, 1995, the results of
their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for
each of the two years in the period then ended, except for CREF which is for the
period from inception March 16, 1994 to December 31, 1994 and for the year ended
December 31, 1995, and the financial highlights for the periods indicated
therein, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
