Annuity Funds M, P, and Q (Registration  Statement #2-69327) for the fiscal year

The amount of Securities that the Notice makes definite for  Registration  under
the said Rule and  Securities  Act of 1933 is  $20,116,414.  I am of the opinion
that these  Securities,  the  Registration of which the Notice makes definite in

I hereby  consent to the filing of this  Opinion as an Exhibit to the Rule 24f-2

year ending December 31, 1996.

Sincerely,
