Dear Shareholder:

It's a  pleasure  to bring  you this  annual  report  for the  Franklin  Federal
Tax-Free Income Fund covering the period ended April 30, 1996.

Declining interest rates, moderate growth and mild inflation  characterized much
of the period under review.  Economic growth slowed  significantly  in the first
half of this  fiscal  year,  prompting  the Federal  Reserve  Board to lower the
federal  funds rate (the rate banks  charge each other for  overnight  loans) on
three  separate  occasions -- in July and December  1995,  and in February 1996.
Bond markets in general  anticipated the Federal Reserve's actions, as long-term
bond yields had been decreasing steadily since the beginning of 1995, and prices
of fixed-income securities appreciated.

Interest rates did rise, however,  following  stronger-than-expected  employment
reports released in March and April, which caused some temporary weakness in the
financial  markets.  Although  inflation  remained in check, hopes for immediate
rate reductions dimmed as the economy showed signs of improvement.

We anticipate  continued  moderate growth and mild inflation in the coming year.
Despite recent fluctuations, we believe interest rates may stabilize or possibly
decline in the near future, should inflation remain subdued. Such an environment
should benefit the municipal  securities  market through price  appreciation and
competitive rates. On the pages that follow, you will find detailed  information
about these conditions and their effects on the fund.

The rebound of the municipal securities market in 1995 reinforced our philosophy
that investors should maintain a long-term  investment  perspective.  While your
fund may experience  volatility from time to time, the Franklin Federal Tax-Free
Income Fund's performance should be rewarding over the long term.

As always, we appreciate your continued support, welcome your comments, and look
forward to serving you in the years to come.


Sincerely,



Charles B. Johnson
Chairman
Franklin Federal Tax-Free Income Fund


AN UPDATE ON TAX REFORM

Tax reform is an issue that has weighed  heavily on everyone's mind -- including
ours.  In January,  the National  Commission  on Tax Reform and Economic  Growth
released its long-anticipated  report. Although the Commission endorsed the idea
of sweeping tax reform,  the report may have actually raised more questions than
it answered, such as:

o    What would be an acceptable tax rate?

o    Would low-income families be excluded?

o    What would be the tax status of investment income?

o    Would the rich and poor gain at the expense of the middle class?

While  several,  more detailed tax reform plans are being  discussed,  investors
should keep in mind that making such dramatic change is not a simple process. We
recognize that media attention regarding a few of the high-profile proposals has
caused some investor  concern over municipal  investments,  and we believe it is
important  to note that the  municipal  bond  market  could be  affected  by tax
reform.  We feel that any dramatic changes,  however,  are probably far down the
road. For more information regarding tax reform and its effects on the municipal
market, please see the Portfolio Update on the next page.


PORTFOLIO UPDATE:

FRANKLIN'S TAX-FREE INCOME FUNDS


Tom Kenny,  director of Franklin  Templeton's  Municipal  Bond  Department,  and
portfolio managers Bernie Schroer, Sheila Amoroso and Don Duerson take a look at
the important issues that shaped the municipal bond market last year.

Did the municipal market measure up to your expectations in 1995?

Tom Kenny:  In our last  portfolio  update,  we told you we were  anticipating a
strong  municipal  market in 1995.  We expected that the supply of new municipal
bonds would continue to be low, and that the interest-rate  environment would be
more  favorable  for  bond  investors,   thereby  increasing  demand.  Generally
speaking,  we  were  right.  Tax-free  income  funds  fared  well in  1995,  and
Franklin's funds were no exception. After enduring one of the worst fixed-income
markets of the last 25 years in 1994,  last year's  rebound only  reinforced our
philosophy  that investors  should keep a long-term  perspective  (see Fig. 1 on
next page). That being said, the municipal market's  performance wasn't quite as
robust as we had anticipated.

Why was that?

Tom: While  investor  demand was strong in the beginning of the year, it started
to  decline in April,  due in part to a  "hangover"  effect  from the tough 1994
market. Additionally, the stock market performed so well that it pulled a lot of
assets into equities.

Bernie Schroer: There was also the fear of a "flat tax."

Portfolio managers Don Duerson (left) and Sheila Amoroso (right) discuss aspects
of a new bond issue with Tom Kenny,  director of Franklin Templeton's  Municipal
Bond Department.

The media have focused  considerable  attention  on a proposed  "flat tax." What
does tax reform mean for individual municipal bonds and bond funds?

Don  Duerson:   It  really  depends  upon  which  tax-reform  proposal  you  are
discussing.  There are  several  proposals  out  there,  such as a flat  tax,  a
value-added tax, an unlimited  savings  allowance,  and a consump- tion tax. The
popular  appeal  of most of  these  proposals  is that  they  attempt  to  bring
simplicity to what is now a complex tax code.

Ultimately,  however,  no one proposal addresses every problem.  So while we are
closely  following  the debate,  we think it's too early to make any  investment
decisions based purely on speculation.

Sheila Amoroso: The debate,  however,  has had an impact on the market,  keeping
municipal securities' prices lower than they otherwise might have been.

What are the chances that some type of tax reform will be enacted this year?

Don:  Because it is so complicated and the effects so  far-reaching,  tax reform
probably won't be addressed before 1997 -- although the political  rhetoric will
certainly be a big part of the upcoming  presidential  election.  Also,  keep in
mind what  happened to the health care reform  proposals a few years ago.  After
all the political  debate and havoc that was wrought on health care  securities,
the issue has quietly faded into the background.

Sheila:  Change  of this  magnitude  is not a simple  process,  as we have  seen
recently with the balanced budget  proposals.  In that case,  everyone agrees on
the goal of balancing  the budget,  but they  disagree on how to get there.  Tax
reform is much  more  difficult  because  the goals are not the same for all the
parties involved.

How about Orange  County?  Did that  situation  continue to affect the market in
1995?

Tom: Generally speaking, the overall municipal market was impacted by Orange
County's bankruptcy for a relatively short time, rebounding very quickly. The
California market, on the other hand, was affected well into 1995, until Orange
County established a recovery plan. While the "Orange County effect" is
essentially behind us, it does point out one of the major benefits of owning a
Franklin tax-free mutual fund as our funds invest in a variety of issues, and
the impact of any one issue, sector or region is usually very limited. Interest-
ingly, one measurable effect of Orange County's financial difficulties may be
the increased volume of insured bonds in the market. Approximately 44% of new
municipal bonds in 1995 were insured, versus 37% in 1994 (see Fig. 2).1 In
California that figure was even higher.

Does this mean the funds are buying more insured securities?

Bernie: Yes. Recently, we have been buying mostly insured bonds for many of the
Franklin tax-free funds, but that is primarily due to the narrow yield spread
between AAA and lesser-quality issues.2

Schroer, Tom Kenny and Don Duerson.

What do you mean by "narrow spread?"

Bernie:  In a declining  or low  interest-rate  environment,  investors  tend to
"reach for yield," trying to obtain the same yield level they had in an earlier,
higher  interest-rate  environment.  To accomplish  this,  investors have to buy
lesser-quality  bonds,  which are usually higher yielding.  Paradoxically,  this
added demand generally drives the prices of these securities  higher and results
in lower relative yields. The end result is a much smaller yield difference,  or
"narrow  spread,"  between a AAA insured bond and a lesser-grade  BBB bond. When
this happens, it makes more sense for us to buy the insured bonds.

Sheila,  are you even  purchasing  insured bonds for the Franklin High Yield Tax
Free Income Fund?3

Sheila:  Yes,  recently we have been.  Higher risk should mean higher  potential
reward,  but there just isn't  enough of a yield  spread in the rated  market to
warrant the added risk in  lower-quality  bonds right now. In addition,  we have
been focusing heavily on non-rated issues where yields have remained attractive.
We have one of the largest teams of municipal  market analysts of any fund group
in the  nation.4  With their hard work,  we can  determine  which bonds meet our
strict  internal  ratings  criteria,  and we still get paid the higher yield for
buying a "non-rated"  security.  We feel this can definitely be an advantage for
our shareholders.

Do you anticipate a continued low supply of new issues this year?

Tom:  Municipal bonds finance the building and repair of  infrastructure  across
the country. While the need for these projects clearly exists,  nationally there
has been a taxpayer revolt.  Across the country,  many new Republican  governors
have been swept into office on a theme of lower taxes,  and many states continue
to face budget pressures.  As a result,  states and municipalities  simply can't
afford  to issue  new  securities.  So  while  the need is  there,  I think  the
economics  and  politics of the matter bode well for  continued  low supply (see
Fig. 3).

GRAPHIC MATERIAL 3 OMITTED - SEE APPENDIX AT END OF DOCUMENT


That could be good news for our shareholders, because if supply continues to
remain low, stronger investor demand could make municipal securities attractive
investments.

What do you see in the months ahead?

Tom: We think the fundamentals  look good for municipal bonds. But regardless of
changing  market  conditions,  we  will  continue  to  focus  on  providing  our
shareholders  with high current income free from regular federal and,  depending
on the fund, state personal income taxes.5

Franklin has become the largest tax-free fund manager in the nation by following
a very straightforward,  "plain vanilla" investment philosophy, which has proved
successful in both strong and weak  markets.6  Over time,  income has provided a
much greater percentage of total return than has capital appreciation,  based on
the unmanaged Lehman Brothers 20-Year Municipal Bond Index (see Fig. 4). We plan
to maintain our approach and continue to make tax-free income our focus.

Looking ahead, I think municipal  securities will remain an excellent investment
option for many  individuals,  and our 870,000 tax-free fund  shareholders  will
continue  to find  investing  in our funds to be one of the most  effective  and
convenient ways to participate in the municipal securities market.

MANAGER'S DISCUSSION

Fund Objective

The Franklin  Federal  Tax-Free Income Fund seeks to provide high current income
exempt  from  regular  federal  income  tax  through  a  nationally  diversified
portfolio consisting primarily of municipal securities.*

As in the past,  fluctuating  interest  rates  directly  affected the  municipal
securities in which your fund invests. The declining federal funds rate resulted
in higher bond prices. As a result,  the Franklin Federal Tax-Free Income Fund's
Class I share  price  rose to $11.83 on April 30,  1996,  from  $11.73  one year
earlier.

The most notable  change we made during this fiscal year  involved  reducing the
number of  pre-refunded  bonds in the  portfolio.  Pre-refunding  occurs when an
issuer  refinances  a bond by  issuing  a new,  lower-  coupon  bond,  using the
proceeds to repay the original bond. In some ways,  pre-refunding  is similar to
refinancing a home, to secure a lower mortgage payment when interest rates fall.
Pre-refunded  bonds  frequently  rise in value  because  they are backed by U.S.
government  securities.  As such,  we were able to sell at increased  prices and
maintain  some of the gain in the fund's net asset value.  In addition,  we felt
holding  these bonds to maturity  would result in paying  higher  prices for new
issues  later,  when supply may be lower.  By selling,  we tried to maximize the
long-term earning power of the fund, while protecting  against declines in share
price.


GRAPHIC MATERIAL 5 OMITTED - SEE APPENDIX AT END OF DOCUMENT

* For investors subject to the federal  alternative minimum tax, a small portion
of this income may be subject to such tax. Distributions of capital gains and of
ordinary income from accrued market discount, if any, are generally taxable.

To reduce our  exposure  to future call risk,  we sold some of our  pre-refunded
bonds  before they were  called.  We invested  the proceeds in full coupon bonds
offering call  protection  for a longer  period of time.  (Full coupon bonds pay
interest  rates at or near the  current  market  rate.) As a result,  the fund's
prerefunded holdings declined to 10% of total long-term investments on April 30,
1996, from 20.6% on April 30, 1995.

During this fiscal year,  we continued to purchase  "essential  service"  bonds.
These securities tend to have a relatively reliable income stream generated from
hospitals,  utilities and transportation  projects,  for example.  Budgetary and
political  changes tend to have a limited  effect on such bonds,  and we believe
they are  attractive  investments,  particularly  in the municipal  cost-cutting
environment we have seen this year.


The Top Four

MAP OMITTED

More than one-third of the fund's total market value was held in California,
Texas, Illinois and New York on April 30, 1996.

The chart to the right  illustrates  that the fund is well-  diversified  across
several sectors.  The fund contains bonds from a wide range of cities,  counties
and other municipal  entities  throughout the country.  In fact, as of April 30,
1996,  your fund held  investments  in all 50 states and Puerto  Rico,  with its
largest holdings focused in New York (11.51% of total market value),  California
(8.16%) and Texas (7.64%).

The quality of the bonds in your fund's portfolio  remained  consistent over the
fiscal year.  On April 30, 1996,  more than 68% of total  long-term  investments
represented  bonds rated A or higher,  compared with 70% one year  earlier.+ Our
continued  emphasis on seeking high  quality  bonds can help us protect the fund
against  credit  risk (the  risk that a bond  issuer  will  default  on its loan
payments) while attempting to take advantage of competitive yields.

If current economic trends continue, the fund should benefit in the coming year.
the possibility of improving bond prices, coupled with the high quality of the
bonds in the portfolio, should help the fund maintain its positive
performance.

   Total                                  74.4 cents



We are pleased to report that the Franklin  Federal Tax-Free Income Fund's Class
I share price, as measured by net asset value,  increased 10 cents,  from $11.73
on April 30, 1995, to $11.83 on April 30, 1996.

At the end of the reporting  period,  the Class I  distribution  rate was 6.02%,
based on an  annualization of the current monthly dividend of 6.2 cents ($0.062)
per share and the  maximum  offering  price of  $12.36 on April 30,  1996.  This
tax-free  rate is  generally  higher than the  after-tax  return on a comparable
taxable investment.  As the chart below illustrates,  an investor in the maximum
federal  income  tax  bracket  of 39.6%  would have to earn 9.97% from a taxable
investment to match the fund's tax-free distribution rate.

The chart on the following  page  illustrates  that for the 10 years ended April
30,  1996,  Class I shares far  outperformed  the  Consumer  Price Index  (CPI),
keeping your  purchasing  power well ahead of inflation -- a primary goal of any
investment.  Class I shares generally  followed the performance of the unmanaged
Lehman  Brothers  Municipal  Bond  Index.  Of course,  comparing  a fund with an
unmanaged  index is never an  apples-  to-apples  comparison.  Unmanaged  market
indices do not reflect management fees to cover salaries of securities  analysts
or portfolio  managers,  nor do they include the impact of commissions or market
spreads to buy and sell bonds.  Performance figures reported by a professionally
managed mutual fund, however, include the maximum initial sales charge, all fund
expenses and account fees. Unlike indices, mutual funds are never fully invested
because they must have cash on hand to redeem shares. If operating expenses of a
professionally managed fund, like the Franklin Federal Tax-Free Income Fund, had
been  applied to this  index,  the  index's  performance  would have been lower.
Please remember that an index is simply a measure of performance, and one cannot
invest  in an index  directly.  Past  performance  is not  predictive  of future
results.

1.  Cumulative  total return  measures the change in value of an investment over
the periods  indicated  and does not include the current,  maximum 4.25% initial
sales charge. See Note below.

2. Average annual total return  represents the average annual change in value of
an investment over the specified periods and includes the current, maximum 4.25%
initial sales. See Note below.

3.  Distribution  rate is based on an  annualization of the current 6.2 cent per
share  monthly  dividend and the maximum  offering  price of $12.36 on April 30,
1996.

4.  Taxable  equivalent  distribution  rate and yield  assume  the 1996  maximum
federal income tax rate of 39.6%.

5. Yield,  calculated  as  required by the SEC, is based on the  earnings of the
fund's portfolio for the 30 days ended April 30, 1996.

Note:  Prior to July 1,  1994,  shares  were  offered at a lower  initial  sales
charge,  with dividends  reinvested at the public offering price.  Thus,  actual
total  returns for  purchasers  of shares  during  that  period  would have been
somewhat different than noted above.  Effective May 1, 1994, the fund eliminated
the sales charge on reinvested  dividends and implemented a plan of distribution
under Rule 12b-1, which affects subsequent performance.

All total return calculations assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains
at net asset value.  Investment  return and principal  value will fluctuate with
market  conditions,  and you may have a gain or loss when you sell your  shares.
Past performance is not predictive of future results.

share price,  as measured by net asset value,  increased 15 cents from $11.67 on
May 1, 1995, the date the fund began  offering these shares,  to $11.82 on April
30, 1996.

At the end of the fund's fiscal year, the Class II distribution  rate was 5.97%,
based  on an  annualization  of the  current  monthly  dividend  of  5.94  cents
($0.0594) per share and the maximum  offering price of $11.94 on April 30, 1996.
This tax-free rate is generally higher than the after-tax return on a comparable
taxable invest- ment. As the chart below illustrates, an investor in the maximum
federal  income  tax  bracket  of 39.6%  would have to earn 9.88% from a taxable
investment to match the fund's tax-free distribution rate.


++The Class II share dividend and distribution  rate reflect the  reconciliation
of the  12b-1  differential  between  Class I and  Class II  shares.  Subsequent
dividend distributions may revert to the dividend prior to adjustment.

The  chart  on  the  following  page  illustrates  that  Class  II  shares  have
outperformed  the Consumer Price Index (CPI) since they became  available on May
1, 1995, keeping your purchasing power well ahead of inflation -- a primary goal
of any  investment.  Class II  shares  under-  performed  the  unmanaged  Lehman
Brothers  Municipal  Bond Index.  Of course,  comparing a fund with an unmanaged
index is never an apples-to-apples comparison.  Unmanaged indices do not reflect
management fees to cover salaries of securities  analysts or portfolio managers,
nor do they include the impact of  commissions or market spreads to buy and sell
bonds.  Performance  figures reported by a  professionally  managed mutual fund,
however,  include the initial sales charge,  all fund expenses and account fees.
Unlike  indices,  mutual funds are never fully  invested  because they must have
cash on hand to redeem shares. If operating expenses of a professionally managed
fund, like the Franklin  Federal  Tax-Free Income Fund, had been applied to this
index, the index's  performance  would have been lower.  Please remember that an
index is simply a measure  of  performance,  and one  cannot  invest in an index
directly. Past performance is not predictive of future results.

1.  Cumulative  total return  measures the change in value of an investment over
the period  indicated and does not include the current 1.0% initial sales charge
or the 1.0%  Contingent  Deferred  Sales  Charge  (CDSC),  applicable  to shares
redeemed within 18 months of investment.

2. Average annual total return  represents the average annual change in value of
an investment  over the  specified  period and includes the current 1.0% initial
sales  charge.  It also  includes the 1.0% CDSC  applicable  to shares  redeemed
within 18 months of investment.

3.  Distribution  rate is based on an annualization of the current 5.94 cent per
share  monthly  dividend and the maximum  offering  price of $11.94 on April 30,
1996.   The  Class  II  share  dividend  and   distribution   rate  reflect  the
reconciliation  of the 12b-1  differential  between Class I and Class II shares.
Subsequent   dividend   distributions  may  revert  to  the  dividend  prior  to
adjustment.

4.  Taxable  equivalent  distribution  rate and yield  assume  the 1996  maximum
federal income tax rate of 39.6%.

5. Yield,  calculated  as  required by the SEC, is based on the  earnings of the
fund's portfolio for the 30 days ended April 30, 1996.

All total return calculations assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains
at net asset value.  Investment  return and principal  value will fluctuate with
market  conditions,  and you may have a gain or loss when you sell your  shares.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Franklin Federal Tax-Free Income Fund


1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Franklin  Federal  Tax-Free  Income Fund (the Fund) is an open-end,  diversified
management  investment  company  (mutual fund)  registered  under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended.  The investment  objective of the Fund seeks to
provide high current  income  exempt from regular  federal  income tax through a
nationally diversified portfolio consisting primarily of municipal securities.

The Fund offers two classes of shares,  Class I and Class II. Class I shares are
sold with a higher  front-end  sales charge than Class II shares.  Each class of
shares may be subject to a  contingent  deferred  sales  charge and has the same
rights,  except with respect to the effect of the respective sales charges,  the
distribution  fees borne by each  class,  voting  rights on matters  affecting a
single class, and the exchange privilege of each class.

The  offering  of  Class  II  shares  began on May 1,  1995,  at which  time all
previously  outstanding  shares became Class I shares.  Realized and  unrealized
gains or losses and net investment  income,  other than class specific expenses,
are allocated  daily to each class of shares based upon the relative  proportion
of net assets of each class.

The  following  is a summary of  significant  accounting  policies  consistently
followed  by the  Fund  in the  preparation  of its  financial  statements.  The
policies are in conformity  with generally  accepted  accounting  principles for
investment companies.

a. Security Valuation:

Tax-free bonds generally trade in the  over-the-counter  market rather than on a
national securities exchange. In the absence of a sale or reported bid and asked
prices, information with respect to bond and note transactions,  quotations from
bond  dealers,  market  transactions  in  comparable  securities,   and  various
relationships  between  securities  are  used  to  determine  the  value  of the
security.  The  Fund  may  utilize  a  pricing  service,  bank or  broker/dealer
experienced  in such  matters  to perform  any of the  pricing  functions  under
procedures approved by the Board of Directors (the Board).  Securities for which
market  quotations  are not available are valued in accordance  with  procedures
established by the Board.

b. Municipal Bonds or Notes with "Puts":

The Fund has  purchased  municipal  bonds or notes  with the right to resell the
bonds or notes to the  seller at an agreed  upon  price or yield on a  specified
date or within a specified  period  (which will be prior to the  maturity of the
bonds or notes). Such a right to resell is commonly known as a "put".

c. Income Taxes:

The Fund  intends to  continue to qualify for the tax  treatment  applicable  to
regulated investment companies under the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and to
make the requisite distributions to its shareholders which will be sufficient to
relieve the Fund from income and excise taxes.

d. Security Transactions:

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased
or sold (trade date).  Realized  gains and losses on security  transactions  are
determined on the basis of specific identification.

e. Investment Income, Expenses and Distributions:

Distributions  to shareholders  are recorded on the ex-dividend  date.  Interest
income and estimated  expenses are accrued daily.  Bond discount and premium are
amortized as required by the Code.

f. Securities Purchased on a When-Issued or Delayed Delivery Basis:

The Fund maypurchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis, with
payment and delivery scheduled for a future date. These transactions are subject
to market  fluctuations  and are  subject to the risk that the value at delivery
may be more or less than the trade date purchase  price.  Although the Fund will
generally   purchase  these   securities  with  the  intention  of  holding  the
securities,  it may  sell the  securities  before  the  settlement  date.  These
securities  are  identified  on the  accompanying  Statement of  Investments  in
Securities  and Net  Assets.  The  Fund  has  set  aside  sufficient  investment
securities as collateral for these purchase commitments.

g. Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial  statements in accordance  with generally  accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect  the  reported  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  at the date of the
financial  statements and the amounts of income and expense during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

5. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND RELATED PARTIES

Under the terms of a management agreement,  Franklin Advisers,  Inc. (Advisers),
provides investment advice, administrative services, office space and facilities
to the Fund, and receives fees computed monthly on the net assets of the Fund on
the last day of the month as follows:

       Annualized Fee Rate    Month End Net Assets
       -------------------    -----------------------------------------
             0.625%           First $100 million

             0.45%            Over $250 million up to and including $10 billion


Fees are  further  reduced  on net  assets  over $10  billion.  The terms of the
management  agreement  provide  that  annual  aggregate  expenses of the Fund be
limited to the extent  necessary to comply with the limitations set forth in the
laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations of the states in which the
Fund's  shares are  registered.  For the year ended April 30,  1996,  the Fund's
expenses did not exceed these limitations.

Investor  Services,  Inc.  (Investor  Services),  the Fund  pays  costs on a per
shareholder account basis.  Shareholder servicing costs incurred by the Fund for

c. Distribution Plans and Underwriting Agreement:

Under the terms of  distribution  plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the Investment
Company  Act  of  1940  (the  Plans),  the  Fund  reimburses  Franklin/Templeton
Distributors,  Inc.  (Distributors),  in an amount up to a maximum  of 0.10% per
annum for Class I and  0.65%  per annum for Class II, of the  average  daily net
assets of such class of the Fund for costs incurred in the  promotion,  offering
and marketing of the Fund's shares. The Plans do not permit nor require payments
of excess  costs after  termination.  Fees  incurred by the Fund under the Plans
aggregated $4,421,237 for the year ended April 30, 1996.

In its capacity as underwriter for the shares of the Fund, Distributors receives
commissions on sales of the Fund's capital stock.  Commissions are deducted from
the gross proceeds  received from the sale of the capital stock of the Fund, and
as such are not expenses of the Fund.  Distributors may also make payments,  out
of its own  resources,  to the dealers for certain  sales of the Fund's  shares.
Commissions  received by  Distributors  and the amount paid to other dealers for
the  year  ended  April  30,  1996  amounted  to  $17,594,884  and  $17,354,275,

10% of its total net  assets in the state of New York.  Such  concentration  may
subject the Fund more  significantly to economic  changes  occurring within that
state.

The Fund has 4.63% of its  portfolio  invested  in lower  rated  and  comparable
quality unrated high yield  securities.  Investments in higher yield  securities
are  accompanied  by a  greater  degree of credit  risk and such  lower  quality
securities  tend to be more sensitive to economic  conditions  than higher rated
securities.  The risk of loss due to default by the issuer may be  significantly
greater for the holders of high yield  securities,  because such  securities are
generally unsecured and are often subordinated to other creditors of the issuer.

*Total  return  measures the change in value of an  investment  over the periods
indicated. It is not annualized. It does not include the maximum front-end sales
charge  or  contingent  deferred  sales  charge,  and  assumes  reinvestment  of
dividends and capital gains at net assets value. Prior to May 1, 1994, dividends
were reinvested at the maximum  offering  price,  and capital gains at net asset
value.  Effective  May 1,  1994,  with  the  implementation  of the  Rule  12b-1
distribution plan for Class I shares,  the sales charge on reinvested  dividends
was eliminated.  The total return may differ from that reported in the Manager's
Discussion  due to  differences  between the net asset values quoted and the net
asset values calculated for financial reporting purposes.
+The  Fund paid a  dividend  to  shareholders  of  record  on the  beginning  of
business, May 1, 1995 in the amount of $0.062 per share. The net asset value per
share at beginning of period includes this dividend.


During this fiscal year,  the Fund paid  distributions  from  undistributed  net
investment  income in the  amounts  shown in the  Statement  of  Changes  in Net
Assets.   The  Fund   hereby   designates   100%  of  these   distributions   as
exempt-interest dividends under Section 852(b)(5) of the Internal Revenue Code.

                                                                             
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Franklin Federal Tax-Free Income Fund

To the  Shareholders  and Board of Directors of Franklin Federal Tax-Free Income
Fund:

We have  audited the  accompanying  statement of assets and  liabilities  of the
Franklin  Federal  Tax-Free  Income Fund (the Fund),  including the statement of
investments in securities and net assets,  as of April 30, 1996, and the related
statement of operations  for the year then ended,  the  statements of changes in
net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial
highlights for each of the periods indicated thereon. These financial statements
and financial  highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's  management.  Our
responsibility  is to  express  an opinion  on these  financial  statements  and
financial highlights based on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable  assurance  about  whether the  financial  statements  and  financial
highlights are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis,  evidence  supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of April
30, 1996,  by  correspondence  with the  custodian  and  brokers.  An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by  management,   as  well  as  evaluating  the  overall   financial   statement
presentation.  We believe  that our audits  provide a  reasonable  basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements and financial  highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material  respects,  the financial  position of the
Franklin  Federal  Tax-Free Income Fund as of April 30, 1996, the results of its
operation for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the
two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the
periods  indicated  thereon,  in conformity with generally  accepted  accounting
principles.
