IDS Tax-Free Money Fund, Inc.
IDS Tower 10
Minneapolis, MN 55440-0010
I have examined the Articles of Incorporation and the By-Laws of
the Company and all necessary certificates, permits, minute books,
documents and records of the Company, and the applicable statutes
of the State of Minnesota, and it is my opinion:
(a) That the Company is a corporation duly organized and existing
under the laws of the State of Minnesota with an authorized
capital stock of 10,000,000,000 shares, all of $.01 par value,
that such shares may be issued as full or fractional shares
and that on Dec. 31, 1993, 115,613,175 shares were issued and
outstanding;
(b) That all of such authorized shares are, under the laws of the
State of Minnesota, redeemable as provided in the Articles of
Incorporation of the Company and upon redemption shall have
the status of authorized and unissued shares;
(c) That the Company now proposes to register an additional
23,602,000 shares by post-effective amendment, pursuant to
Rule 24e-2 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, and that
when sold at not less than their par value and in accordance
with applicable federal and state securities laws such shares
will be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
I hereby consent that the foregoing opinion may be used in
connection with the post-effective amendment to your registration
statement to be filed by you pursuant to Section 24(e) of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended for the purpose of
increasing the shares of capital stock, the securities specified
therein, as proposed to be offered.
