[Form 24F-2 Opinion]
February 25, 1997
Trustees of Elfun Trusts
3003 Summer Street
Stamford, Connecticut 06905
Gentlemen:
I have examined the Fund Agreement, as amended to date, of Elfun Trusts
(the "Fund"), a specimen of the Fund's Statement of Account issued to
Unitholders in respect of the units the registration of which was made definite
in number by Form 24F-2 for Elfun Trusts, dated February 25, 1997 (the "Form"),
being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (such units, the
"Units"). I am of the opinion that the Units were legally issued and are fully
paid and non-assessable.
I consent to the use of this opinion in connection with the Notification
and to the filing of a copy of this opinion with the Form.
Very truly yours,
Matthew J. Simpson
Vice President and Associate
General Counsel
