REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Participants and the Employee Benefit Plans Board of
Conoco Inc.
In our opinion, the financial statements listed in the
accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects,
the net assets available for plan benefits of the Thrift
Plan for Employees of Conoco Inc. at December 31, 1994 and
1993, and the changes in net assets available for plan
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Employee Benefit
Plans Board of Conoco Inc. as the Plan's Administrator; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of
these statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which 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, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by the Plan Administrator, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the
opinion expressed above.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an
opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole.
The additional information included in schedules 1 and 2 is
presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a
required part of the basic financial statements but is
additional information required by ERISA. The Fund
Information in the statement of net assets available for
plan benefits and the statement 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 net assets
available for plan benefits of each fund. Schedules 1 and 2
and the 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 takes as a whole.

THRIFT PLAN FOR EMPLOYEES
OF
CONOCO INC. ("THE COMPANY")
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 -- DESCRIPTION OF THE THRIFT PLAN:
THE PLAN
The Thrift Plan for Employees of Conoco Inc.(the "Plan") is a
defined contribution plan which was established in 1952 by Conoco Inc., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (DuPont).
The purpose of the Plan is to encourage employees to save
systematically a portion of their current compensation and to assist them to
accumulate additional means for the time of their retirement. The Plan is a
tax-qualified, contributory profit sharing plan. Employees of the Company,
including employees of affiliated companies that have adopted the Plan, who
have completed a designated period of 12 consecutive months during which they
complete 1,000 hours or more of service; who are regular, full time employees
and have completed at least one year of continuous service; are eligible to
participate in a qualified profit-sharing plan of an affiliated company from
which they were transferred; or became members of the Retirement Plan of
Conoco Inc. (now the Pension and Retirement Plan of E. I. duPont
de Nemours and Company) prior to January 1, 1993, are eligible to participate
in the Plan.
An eligible employee may authorize the Company to make a payroll
deduction under the Plan ranging from 1% to 15% of monthly pay. The amount
deducted can be deposited into a before-tax or after-tax account or some
combination thereof. The before-tax provision is permitted under Section
401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Nondiscrimination rules of the Internal
Revenue Code require that the average savings rates in both the before-tax
and after-tax accounts of "Highly Compensated" employees (as defined by the
IRS) should be limited by the average savings rates of "Nonhighly
Compensated" employees. At December 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993, the
allowable after-tax savings rate was 1% and 6% respectively, and their
allowable before-tax savings rate was 7% and 11% respectively. In addition,
in accordance with Internal Revenue Code, the Plan limited contributions by
any employee to the before-tax account to $9,240 in 1994 and $8,994 in 1993.
The Company will contribute an amount equal to 100% of the participant's
savings deductions during a month except that no company contribution will be
made for any participant's savings in excess of 6% of monthly pay. In
addition, subject to certain limitations, participants who are eligible to
make cash supplemental deposits may make lump sum deposits or deposits in the
form of monthly deductions in excess of 15%. Due to the discrimination rules
of the Internal Revenue Code, only "Non-highly Compensated" participants are
currently able to make supplemental cash deposits.

THRIFT PLAN FOR EMPLOYEES
OF
CONOCO INC. (THE "COMPANY")
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)
A participant with less than five years of participation credit or
service, who withdraws any matched before-tax or after-tax savings will
forfeit a portion of related company contributions in accordance with the
specific plan provisions. Company contributions will be suspended for six
months if a participant withdraws any matched before-tax or after-tax savings
or company contributions contributed to the account during the last two years
of participation or any earnings in the before-tax or after-tax accounts.
Employee deposits and matching company contributions will be suspended for
up to 12 months if a participant withdraws any before-tax contribution
prior to age 59-1/2. In certain circumstances such a withdrawal
may also preclude a participant from making any pre-tax contributions in the
year following the withdrawal. Any vested participant who retires or
separates from service may elect to make a full account withdrawal at any
time. Mandatory minimum distribution commences in March following the year
the participant reaches age 70-1/2.
Participants may borrow up to one-half of their nonforfeitable
account balances subject to certain minimum and maximum loan limitations.
The loans are executed by promissory notes and have a minimum term of 12
months and a maximum term of 60 months, except for qualified residential
loans which have a maximum term of 120 months. The loans bear an interest
rate equal to the average rate charged by selected major banks to prime
customers for secured loans. The loans are repaid over the term in monthly
installments of principal and interest by payroll deduction. A participant
also has the right to repay the loan in full at any time without penalty.

The following investment funds have been established with trustees
for the investment of employee savings and company contributions. The nature
of the investments maintained in each fund is described below:
Fixed Income Fund -- Investments under agreement with one or more
financial institutions, including insurance
companies, banks and other investment
companies which provide for the return of
principal in full plus the payment of
interest at a predetermined rate for a
specific period of time. The fund's blended
rate of return for the 12 months ending
December 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993
was 8.51% and 8.97%, respectively.
Family of Mutual Funds -- A group of seven different mutual funds, each

exception of Magellan and Retirement Growth
which were combined into the Magellan fund.
The Magellan Fund continues to be shown under
the caption Family of Mutual Funds.
3-Way Asset Allocation Fund -- 3-Way Asset Allocation Fund with money
invested by Wells Fargo Nikko Investment
Advisors among stocks, bonds, and cash
(money market).
DuPont Common Stock Fund -- Common Stock of E. I. duPont de Nemours and
Company ("DuPont"), Conoco's ultimate parent
company.
Loan Fund -- Participant loans--amounts transferred from
the Fixed Income Fund, the Fidelity Family of
Mutual Funds, Merrill Lynch Mutual Funds, the
DuPont Common Stock Fund and/or the 3-Way
Asset Allocation Fund that are loaned to
participants.
Merrill Lynch Funds -- A group of 5 different mutual funds each with
its own investment objective offered through
Merrill Lynch.
Cash Fund -- Funds invested overnight in an interest
bearing account awaiting investment in one of
the Plan options or distribution to
Plan participants.
Participants may allocate their before and after-tax savings
deductions and company contributions among all funds at their discretion.
CESOP transfers represent transfers to the Plan from the Conoco
Employee Stock Ownership Plan sponsored by the Company. Affiliated company
transfers in(out) represent the net movement of participant account balances
between the Plan and other Company sponsored defined contribution benefit
plans.
At December 31, 1994 the Plan participants directed their savings
and the related matching company contributions be invested in the following
funds (approximate number of participants in each fund): Fixed Income Fund
(14,000); Family of Mutual Funds (4,000); DuPont Common Stock Fund (7,700);
3-Way Asset Allocation Fund (2,300); Merrill Lynch (ML) Global Holdings
(1,700); ML Balanced Fund(700); ML Equity Index (900); ML Capital Fund

ADMINISTRATION
The designated trustee of all the aforementioned funds is
Merrill Lynch Trust Company of America (Merrill Lynch). The administration
of the Plan is vested in the Board of Directors of Conoco Inc. which may
designate three or more persons to operate and administer the Plan. The
Board of Directors of Conoco Inc. or it's delegee may designate three or more
persons to serve on the Employee Benefit Plans Board which has the authority
to appoint trustees and select insurers. All recordkeeping and trustee fees
of the Plan are paid by the Company. The administrative fees for the Fixed
Income Fund are netted against the investment income of these funds.
While the Company has not expressed any intent to terminate the
Plan, it is free to do so at any time. In the event the Plan is terminated,
all participants become vested and the distribution of all account balances
will be made based upon the valuation of the participant's account.
NOTE 2 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
For financial reporting purposes, the assets of the Plan are
reflected on the accrual and fair value bases of accounting. The provi-
sions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) require
presentation based on fair value. The Fixed Income Fund guaranteed
investment contracts (GIC), separate account portfolios (SAP) and
synthetic guaranteed investment contracts (SYN) are fully benefit responsive
and thus, are stated at cost plus accrued interest, using the contracted
interest rates applied to the daily account balances. Investments in the
Family of Mutual Funds, the DuPont Common Stock Fund, and Merrill Lynch
Mutual Funds, except for the Equity Index Fund, are stated at fair value
based on publicly quoted market prices. Investments in the Merrill Lynch
Equity Index Fund and the 3-Way Asset Allocation Fund are stated at the fair
value of all underlying assets as reported by the applicable custodian. The
fair value of loans to participants in the Loan Fund represent the
outstanding principal balances of the loans.
The unit value or price of the Fixed Income Fund, the 3-Way Asset
Allocation Fund, Merrill Lynch Mutual Funds and the DuPont Common Stock
Fund, reflect the prices at which participant's accounts are valued at the
end of the period reported. The "Net Asset Value" per share, or NAV, for
each Fund in the Family of Mutual Funds is computed by adding the value of
all portfolio holdings and other assets, deducting liabilities and then
dividing the result by the number of shares outstanding at month end.
Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company calculates each of
these funds' NAV at the close of each business day of the New York Stock
Exchange. There is no unit value for the Loan Fund since loans are
identified directly with participants' accounts. The Company may, at its
option, issue DuPont common stock in lieu of cash contributions to the DuPont
<PAGE>
PAGE 17
THRIFT PLAN FOR EMPLOYEES

CONOCO INC. (THE "COMPANY")
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)
Common Stock Fund and also in lieu of cash dividends on DuPont common stock.
The number of shares issued is based upon the cash value of the contributions
and dividends divided by the market value of DuPont common stock at the end
of the month of issue. Shares of DuPont common stock are allocated to
participants in the DuPont Common Stock Fund based on the ratio of the amount
deposited to each participant's account to the total amount contributed to
the Fund.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis. Gains and losses on the sale of
the DuPont Common Stock Fund investment securities are based on average
cost of the securities sold and are recognized on the trade date.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the Plan's 1993
financial statements to conform with the 1994 presentation.

owned equally by DuPont and subsidiaries of RWE AG of Germany. Accordingly,
the investments in these funds by participants in the Plan and the Consol
Plan have been commingled for investment purposes; however, the plan assets
are maintained separately by the trustee.

NOTE 4 -- REALIZED AND UNREALIZED GAINS AND LOSSES
Realized and unrealized gains and losses are calculated based upon
historical cost of assets. Such gains and losses are computed on a current
value basis for Form 5500. The difference may result in a differing classi-
fication between realized and unrealized but the total gain or loss will be
unaffected.
NOTE 5 -- INCOME TAX STATUS
The Plan is a qualified plan pursuant to Section 401(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code and the related Trusts are exempt from federal taxation
under Section 501(a) of the Code. A favorable tax determination letter has
been received by the Plan. Accordingly, no provision has been made for
federal income taxes in the accompanying financial statements. The Plan has
been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan
Administrator and the Plan's Tax Counsel believe that the Plan is designed
and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.
Participants in the Plan are not subject to federal income taxes on
account balances arising from employer contributions, tax-deferred employee
deposits, or accrued income until distributions or withdrawals are made.
NOTE 6 -- CHANGE OF TRUSTEE AND RECORDKEEPER
Effective January 1993 the record-keeping of the Plan was
transferred to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated.
Concurrently with this move, Merrill Lynch became the Trustee for the Fixed
Income Fund, Family of Mutual Funds, 3-Way Asset Allocation Fund, DuPont
Common Stock Fund, Loan Fund and the Merrill Lynch Mutual Funds.
NOTE 7 -- WELLS FARGO CONVERSION
In January 1993, the Plan's position in the Wells Fargo 3-Way Asset
Allocation Fund was converted from Monthly (U.S. Tactical Asset Allocation
Fund) to Daily (U.S. Tactical Asset Allocation Fund E). This conversion
resulted in a change of the base unit value to $10 per share with a relative
change in shares held to ensure no gain or loss for participants. The
conversion was necessary to allow daily trading of the 3-Way Asset Allocation
Fund.
