To the Trustees of
Command Government Fund


In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of Command
Government Fund (the "Fund") for the year ended June 30, 1995, we considered its
internal control structure, including procedures for safeguarding securities, in
order to determine our auditing procedures for the purposes of expressing our
opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form
N-SAR, and not to provide assurance on the internal control structure.

The management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and maintaining an
internal control structure.  In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and
judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related
costs of internal control structure policies and procedures.  Two of the
objectives of an internal control structure are to provide management with
reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are appropriately
safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition and that
transactions are executed in accordance with management's authorization and
recorded properly to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of inherent limitations in any internal control structure, errors or
irregularities may occur and may not be detected.  Also, projection of any
evaluation of the structure to future periods is subject to the risk that it may
become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of
the design and operation may deteriorate.

Our consideration of the internal control structure would not necessarily
disclose all matters in the internal control structure that might be material
weaknesses under standards established by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants.  A material weakness is a condition in which the design or
operation of the specific internal control structure elements does not reduce to
a relatively low level the risk that errors or irregularities in amounts that
would be material in relation to the financial statements being audited may
occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal
course of performing their assigned functions.  However, we noted no matters
involving the internal control structure, including procedures for safeguarding
securities, that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above as of
June 30, 1995.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

We have examined the accompanying description of the Prudential Dual
Pricing Worksheet (the "Worksheet") application of State Street Bank
and Trust Company ("State Street"), custodian and recordkeeper for
the Prudential Mutual Funds (the "Funds").  Our examination included
procedures to obtain reasonable assurance about whether (1) the
accompanying description presents fairly, in all material respects,
the aspects of State Street's policies and procedures that may be
relevant to a Fund's internal control structure relating to the
Worksheet, (2) the control structure policies and procedures included
in the description were suitably designed to achieve the control
objectives specified in the description, if those policies and
procedures were complied with satisfactorily, and (3) such policies
and procedures had been placed in operation as of June 30, 1994.  The
control objectives were specified by Prudential Mutual Fund
Management.  Our examination was performed in accordance with
standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants and included those procedures we considered necessary in
the circumstances to obtain a reasonable basis for rendering our
opinion.

In our opinion, the accompanying description of the aforementioned
application presents fairly, in all material respects, the relevant
aspects of State Street's policies and procedures that had been
placed in operation as of June 30, 1994.  Also, in our opinion, the
policies and procedures, as described, are suitably designed to
provide reasonable assurance that the specified control objectives
would be achieved if the described policies and procedures were
complied with satisfactorily.

In addition to the procedures we considered necessary to render our
opinion as expressed in the previous paragraph, we applied tests to
specific policies and procedures, listed in Section I, to obtain
evidence about their effectiveness in meeting the control objectives,
described in Section I during the period from July 1, 1993 to
June 30, 1994.  The nature, timing, extent, and results of the tests
are listed in Section II.  In our opinion the policies and procedures
that were tested, as described in Section II, were operating with
sufficient effectiveness to provide reasonable, but not absolute,
assurance that the control objectives specified in Section I were
achieved during the period from July 1, 1993 to June 30, 1994.

The relative effectiveness and significance of specific policies and
procedures at State Street, and their effect on assessments of
control risk on the Funds are dependent on their interaction with the
policies, procedures, and other factors present at individual Funds.
We have performed no procedures to evaluate the effectiveness of
policies and procedures at individual Funds in connection with this
report.

The description of policies and procedures at State Street is as of
June 30, 1994, and information about tests of the operating
effectiveness of specified policies and procedures covers the period
from July 1, 1993 to June 30, 1994.  Any projection of such
information to the future is subject to the risk that, because of
change, the description may no longer portray the system in
existence.  The potential effectiveness of specified policies and
procedures at State Street is subject to inherent limitations and,
accordingly, errors or irregularities may occur and not be detected.
Furthermore, the projection of any conclusions, based on our
findings, to future periods is subject to the risk that changes may
alter the validity of such conclusions.

This report is intended solely for use by the management and Boards
of Directors/Trustees of the Funds, the independent auditors of the
Funds and the Securities and Exchange Commission.




July 28, 1994
                             SECTION I

            Policies and Procedures Placed in Operation
                 Prudential Dual Pricing Worksheet


Effective January 22, 1990, the Funds, offered by Prudential
Securities Incorporated (formerly Prudential-Bache Securities,
Inc.) and Prudential Mutual Fund Distributors, Inc., adopted a dual
pricing system.  The dual pricing system consists of two classes of
shares (Class A and Class B for all funds except the Florida Series
of Prudential Municipal Series Fund.  This Fund offers Class A and
Class D shares.) for the Funds.  The Class A shares are subject to
a front-end sales load and the Class B and Class D shares are
subject to a contingent deferred sales charge.  Each of the classes
of shares represent interests in the same portfolio of investments
of the respective Fund and are identical in all respects, except
that each class is subject to different distribution expenses and
has exclusive voting rights with respect to the Rule 12b-1
distribution plan pursuant to which such distribution expenses are
paid.

In order to allocate income and expenses between the two classes of
shares, State Street Bank and Trust Company (the Funds' custodian
and recordkeeper) utilizes the Prudential Dual Pricing Worksheet
(the "Worksheet") (see Exhibit I).  The Worksheet is a manual
supplementary application that extracts relevant data from the
Funds' primary accounting system, allocates income and expenses
between the two classes of shares and computes the daily net asset
value and, if applicable, the dividend/distribution for each class
of shares.  Internal accounting controls that are relevant to the
Fund can be divided into two components - controls related to the
mutual fund accounting system resident at State Street Bank and
Trust Company (the "primary accounting system") and controls
related to the Worksheet.

The spcific control objectives and policies and procedures relating
to the Worksheet are described on pages 4, 5 and 6.  A description
of the tests of the policies and procedures designed to obtain
evidence about the operating effectiveness of those policies and
procedures in achieving the specific control objectives is included
in Section II.

          Control Objectives and Policies and Procedures
                 Prudential Dual Pricing Worksheet


The Worksheet is a supplementary manual application to the Funds'
primary accounting system.  Certain data is extracted from the
primary accounting system to allocate income and expenses and to
calculate the daily net asset value and, if applicable,
dividends/distributions for each class of shares.  The primary
accounting system includes the details of transactions in
accordance with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

The following represents the internal accounting control objectives
and policies and procedures for the allocation of income and
expenses and the computation of the net asset value and, if
applicable, the dividend/distribution for each class of shares
utilizing the Worksheet.  It does not cover the internal accounting
control policies and procedures surrounding the processing of
information into the Funds' primary accounting system.

                 Tests of Operating Effectiveness
                 Prudential Dual Pricing Worksheet
                   July 1, 1993 to June 30, 1994


We reviewed the methodology and procedures for calculating the
daily net asset value and, if applicable, the
dividends/distributions of the two classes of shares and the
allocation of income and expenses between the two classes of
shares.

The following are the detailed procedures which we performed with
respect to the Worksheet.  These procedures were performed for
selected days encompassing all Funds subject to dual pricing during
the year ended June 30, 1994, which we believe is a representative
sample, to test compliance with the control policies and procedures
as described in Section I.

Prudential Mutual Fund Management, Inc. is the manager of the Funds
and has represented to us that adequate facilities are in place to
ensure implementation of the methodology and procedures for
calculating the net asset value and dividends/distributions of the
two classes of shares and the allocation of income and expenses
between the two classes of shares.  Based on our review of the
description of the policies and procedures of the Worksheet, as
described in Section I, and performance of tests of operating
effectiveness as described in Section II, we concur with such
representation.

     the composite total by "Percentage Dividend Assets-Class
     A/Front End" and "Percentage Dividend Assets-Class B(D)/Back
     End," and for non-daily dividend funds by multiplying the
     composite total by "Percentage Assets-Class A/Front End" and
     "Percentage Assets-Class B(D)/Back End".
