To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
  Strong Asset Allocation Fund, Inc.

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of Strong Asset
Allocation  Fund,  Inc.  (the "Fund") for the year ended  October 31,  1999,  we
considered its internal control,  including control  activities for safeguarding
securities,  in order to determine  our auditing  procedures  for the purpose of
expressing  our  opinion  on the  financial  statements  and to comply  with the
requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance on internal control.

The  management of the Fund is  responsible  for  establishing  and  maintaining
internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility,  estimates and judgments by
management  are  required to assess the expected  benefits and related  costs of
controls.  Generally,  controls  that are  relevant  to an audit  pertain to the
entity's objective of preparing financial  statements for external purposes that
are  fairly   presented  in  conformity  with  generally   accepted   accounting
principles.   Those  controls   include  the   safeguarding  of  assets  against
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition.

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

Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters
in  internal   control  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 one or more
of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the
risk  that  misstatements  caused  by error or fraud 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
internal  control  and  its  operation,  including  controls  over  safeguarding
securities,  that we consider to be material  weaknesses  as defined above as of
October 31, 1999.

This report is intended solely for the  information  and use of management,  the
Board of Directors of the Fund and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is
not intended to be and should not be used by anyone  other than these  specified
parties.
