Letter to Shareholders
December 31, 1994
Dear Shareholder:
With short-term interest rates steadily rising, 1994 was a very good year
for money market investors and shareholders of the Command Money Fund, the
Command Government Fund and the Command Tax-Free Fund.

Fund Overview.
The Command Money Fund, Command Government Fund and Command Tax-Free Fund all
seek high current income consistent with the preservation of principal and
liquidity, each from a different segment of the short-term markets.
Additionally, the Tax-Free Fund captures income that is exempt from federal
income taxes.
The Federal Reserve Tightens.
Despite higher interest rates, the U.S. economy grew at a robust rate of
about 4% in 1994. Gross Domestic Product (GDP), the measure of goods
produced and services delivered, grew at a rate that many believed was
far faster than the Federal Reserve would have liked to have seen. This
supports our view that more interest rate increases are on the horizon.
In 1994, the central bank raised short-term interest rates six times,
increasing the federal funds rate
-1-
<PAGE>
(the interbank overnight lending rate) by 2.5 percentage points to 5.5%.
Long-term interest rates rose as bond investors worried that prices
would rise.
As it turned out, inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index,
grew by only 2.7% in 1994 -- the fourth straight year under 3%. But it
can be argued that inflation usually lags behind actual economic growth.
For example, commodity prices have been rising and employment growth has
been robust. Approximately three million people found jobs in 1994 sending
the unemployment rate to a four-year low, while consumer confidence soared.
If this view proves to be correct, then inflation might rise to 3.5% in
the coming year.
COMMAND MONEY FUND
The Command Money Fund invests in high-quality, U.S.-dollar denominated
money market securities issued by the U.S. government and its agencies,
major corporations, and commercial banks of the U.S. and foreign countries.
Maturities can range from one day to a maximum of 13 months. We generally
invest in securities rated in the two highest rating categories by major
credit rating agencies, or, if unrated, deemed to be of equivalent quality
by our own credit research staff.
Strategy: We Shortened.
The returns for money market funds are greatly affected by changes in
monetary policy. As interest rates rose, we shortened our maturities
to take advantage of the situation. For example, the Command Money
Fund's weighted average maturity (WAM) was as low as 27 days on August
11, 1994, just before the Federal Reserve raised rates by a half of a
percentage point. This enabled us to take advantage of new investments
offering higher interest rates as they came to market. Similarly, when
it became apparent that interest rates would increase once more in November,
we at first shortened our WAM to 35 days before the meeting and then
extended it afterward to as much as 46 days, anticipating a pause in
additional interest rate increases.
As of this writing, attractive sectors of the money market include U. S.
government agency obligations that have become priced more competitively
than Treasury obligations because of increased supply.
COMMAND GOVERNMENT FUND
The Command Government Fund invests primarily in high quality short-term
obligations of the U.S. government, its agencies and instrumentalities
and related repurchase agreements.
-2-
<PAGE>
Strategy: We Shortened.
We followed a similar strategy as the Command Money Fund, shortening our
maturities to take advantage of rising interest rates. We shortened the
Command Government Fund's weighted average maturity (WAM) to 38 days on
August 9, 1994, just before the Federal Reserve raised rates by a half
of a percentage point. This locked in higher interest rates as they came
to market. We employed the same strategy in November when it became
apparent that interest rates would increase once more. We then extended
the WAM since we believed there would be a pause in additional interest
rate increases through the end of 1994.
As of this writing, attractive sectors of the money market include U. S.
government agency obligations that have become priced more competitively
than Treasury obligations because of increased supply.
COMMAND TAX-FREE
The Command Tax-Free Fund invests primarily in short-term securities issued
by states, municipalities, their instrumentalities and authorities, whose
income is exempt from federal taxes.
The Municipal Market Is Different.
The impact of rising interest rates is also being felt by the tax-free
market although not as dramatically as the taxable markets. As we have
explained in previous letters, seasonal supply and demand factors govern
the direction of short-term, tax-exempt rates more than Federal
Reserve policy.
For example, yields on tax-free securities generally rise at the end
of December reflecting an increase in supply as individual investors
withdraw money for the holidays. By mid-January, though, yields fall
as investors return to the tax-free market.
Similar cyclical periods in the short-term, tax-exempt market occur
around income tax filing time and June 30, which marks the end of the
fiscal year for many government entities. Since our objective is to
manage the Fund very conservatively, our strategy is simple: we try to
keep the portfolio extremely liquid at these times, so we can take
advantage of seasonal rate shifts.
A Word About Quality.
As 1994 ended, all of the Command portfolios owned bonds that were
rated in the highest category by two or more nationally recognized
credit rating agencies, or they were deemed to be of equivalent quality
by our credit research staff if they were unrated. We can also report
that the Command Tax-Free portfolio has and had absolutely no exposure
to Orange County, Ca., debt issues when that County declared bankruptcy
last fall.

<PAGE>
The Outlook.
Since the economy has not yet slowed enough to prevent the threat of
rising inflation, we believe that further credit tightening will occur
in 1995. Short-term interest rates will continue to rise until the Federal
Reserve is satisfied that inflationary fears have subsided.
As always, it is a pleasure to have you as a shareholder. We are committed
to managing the Fund for your benefit.
Sincerely,
Lawrence C. McQuade

COMMAND FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Command Money Fund, Command Govemment Fund, and Command Tax-Free Fund
(collectively, the Funds ) are each registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940 as an open-end, diversified management investment company whose shares
are offered exclusively to participants in the Prudential Securities Command
Account Program of Prudential Securities Incorporated ( Prudential Securities ).
The Funds invest in a portfolio of money market instruments maturing in 13
months or less whose ratings are within the two highest ratings categories by a
nationally recognized statistical rating agency or, if not rated, are of
comparable quality. The ability of the issuers of the securities held by the
Funds to meet their obligations may be affected by economic and/or political
developments in a specific industry, state or region.
Note 1. Accounting The following is a summary
Policies of significant accounting poli-
cies followed by the Funds in the preparation of
their financial statements.
Security Valuation: Portfolio securities are valued at amortized cost, which
approximates market value. The amortized cost method involves valuing a security
at its cost on the date of purchase and thereafter assuming a constant
amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If the amortized cost
method is determined not to represent fair value, the value shall be determined
by or under the direction of the Board of Trustees. All securities are valued as
of 4:30 p.m., New York time.
In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the Funds
policy that its custodian or designated subcustodians, as the case may be under
triparty repurchase agreements, take possession of the underlying collateral
securities, the value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase
transaction, including accrued interest. If the seller defaults and the value of
the collateral declines or if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect
to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be
delayed or limited.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income: Securities transactions are
recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments
are calculated on the identified cost basis. Interest income is recorded on the
accrual basis. The cost of portfolio securities for federal income tax purposes
is substantially the same as for financial reporting purposes.
Federal Income Taxes: Each Fund intends to continue to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies and to distribute all of its net income to its shareholders.
Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
Dividends: Each Fund declares all of its net investment income as dividends
daily to its shareholders of record at the time of such declaration. Dividends
are reinvested daily into additional full and fractional shares of the
respective Fund at the net asset value per share detemined on the date of
declaration. Net investment income for dividend purposes includes accrued
interest and amortization of premiums and discounts, plus or minus any gains or
losses realized on sales of portfolio securities, and less the estimated
expenses of the Fund applicable to the dividend period.
Note 2. Agreements Each Fund has a manage-
ment agreement with Prudential Mutual Fund
Management, Inc. ( PMF ). Pursuant to this agreement PMF has responsibility for
all investment advisory services and supervises the subadviser s performance of
such services. PMF has entered into a subadvisory agreement with the Prudential
Investment Corporation (PIC); PIC furnishes investment advisory services in
connection with the management of the Funds. PMF pays for the cost of the
subadvisor s services, the compensation of officers of the Funds, occupancy and
certain clerical and bookkeeping costs of the Funds. The Funds bear all other
costs and expenses.
The management fee paid PMF is computed daily and payable monthly on the
following basis:
