YOUR FUND'S OBJECTIVE

THE FRANKLIN MONEY FUND SEEKS TO PROVIDE A HIGH LEVEL OF CURRENT 
INCOME, CONSISTENT WITH LIQUIDITY AND PRESERVATION OF CAPITAL. THE FUND
INVESTS ALL OF ITS ASSETS IN THE SHARES OF THE MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO (THE 
PORTFOLIO), WHICH HAS THE SAME INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES. THE PORTFOLIO, IN TURN,
INVESTS IN VARIOUS MONEY MARKET INSTRUMENTS SUCH AS U.S. GOVERNMENT 
SECURITIES AND OTHER U.S.DOLLAR DENOMINATED SECURITIES. THE FUND SEEKS TO
MAINTAIN A $1.00 PER SHARE NET ASSET VALUE.(1)

                                                                January 16, 1995

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to bring you the 19th annual report of the Franklin Money
Fund, which covers the period ended November 30, 1994.

During the period under review, the U.S. economy grew rapidly, with Gross
Domestic Product (GDP) increasing at an annualized rate of 3.62% for the
first three quarters of 1994.(2) In addition, by the end of the period, the
nation's unemployment rate declined to 5.8% and its factory capacity
utilization rate rose to over 84%.(3) Although reported economic data did
not show significant increases in inflationary pressures, the Federal
Reserve Board moved in pre-emptive fashion to push up short-term interest
rates in an effort to control the expected higher inflation that normally
accompanies economic recoveries. Since early February, it has increased the
federal funds rate (the interest rate banks charge each other for overnight
loans) on six occasions, from 3.0% to 5.5%.

After the first interest rate increase in February, we began reducing the
Portfolio's weighted average maturity, from 63 days on February 4, 1994 to 40
days on May 31, 1994. Average maturity was further decreased to 36 days by the
end of the reporting period. Reducing the Portfolio's average maturity in this
manner enabled us to reinvest more quickly in new securities offering higher
rates. This, in turn, helped increase the fund's seven-day effective yield,
which rose from 2.45% on November 30, 1993, to 4.76% on November 30, 1994.

Looking forward, we believe that lower unemployment and higher corporate
earnings should translate into higher personal income and spending, which
should continue to fuel the economic recovery currently underway in the U.S. In
most economic recovery cycles, as the economy approaches full employment,
capacity utilization increases in the nation's factories, eventually creating
bottlenecks that can lead to inflationary pressures. If economic growth
continues at its current pace, which is higher than the Federal

guaranteed by the U.S. government, and there can be no assurance that the fund
will be able to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share.

Reserve's long-term target of 2.5%, the Federal Reserve may continue to raise
short-term rates as it seeks to prevent inflation from getting out of control.
Because of its relatively short, weighted average maturity, the Portfolio is
well-positioned to roll over its maturities into higher-yielding instruments
should interest rates continue to rise.

The securities in which the Portfolio invests are among the highest quality
available to money market funds. Since the fund's objective is to provide
shareholders with a high-quality, conservative investment, we do not invest in
derivatives or other potentially volatile securities that we think involve
significant risk.

Franklin Money Fund shareholders continue to benefit from convenience, easy
access to their money and a high degree of credit safety. They also enjoy a
wide range of services, including low minimum investments, free unlimited check
writing for amounts of $100 or more, and monthly shareholder statement
mailings.

We thank you for your continued support of the Franklin Money Fund and look
to serving your investment needs in the months and years to come.

Sincerely,

/s/ CHARLES B. JOHNSON

FRANKLIN MONEY FUND YIELD
for November 30, 1994
     
<TABLE>
<S>                                           <C>
Seven-day annualized yield................    4.65%
 
Seven-day effective yield*................    4.76%
</TABLE>

*The seven-day effective yield assumes the compounding of daily dividends, and
reflects fluctuations in interest rates on portfolio investments, as well as
fund expenses. Yield should be viewed in terms of the current, low rate of
inflation -- just as high inflation usually results in higher yields, low
inflation often results in lower yields. Past performance is not indicative of
future results.                           

SPECIAL NOTE TO SHAREHOLDERS:

FRANKLIN MONEY FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Franklin Money Fund (the Fund) is a no-load, open-end diversified management
investment company (mutual fund), registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended.

On August 1, 1994, the Fund transferred substantially all of its assets,
valued at $1,132,697,789, into The Money Market Portfolio (the Portfolio), in
exchange for 1,132,697,789 capital shares of the Portfolio.

On December 13, 1994, the Board of Directors authorized a change in the
fiscal year end of the Fund from November 30 of each year to June 30.

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. SECURITIES VALUATIONS:

The Fund invests all of its investable assets in the Portfolio. As of
December 31, 1994 (unaudited) and November 30, 1994, the Fund owns 84.83% and
82.31%, respectively, of the Portfolio. The Portfolio's shares held by the Fund
are valued at their proportionate interest in the net asset value of the
Portfolio. The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the statement
of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in
conjunction with the Fund's financial statements.

b. INCOME TAX:
 
The Fund intends to continue to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to
regulated investment companies under the Internal Revenue Code and to make
the requisite distributions to its shareholders which will be sufficient to
relieve it from income and excise taxes. Therefore, no income tax provision is
required.

c. 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 for both
financial statement and income tax purposes.

d. INVESTMENT INCOME, EXPENSES AND DISTRIBUTIONS:

Net investment income includes income, calculated on an accrual basis, and
expenses as incurred on an accrual basis. The total available for dividends is
computed daily and includes the net investment income, plus or minus any gains
or losses on security transactions and changes in unrealized portfolio
appreciation or depreciation (if any).

Distributions are normally declared for each day the New York Stock
Exchange is open for business, equal to the total available for dividends
(as defined above), and are payable to shareholders of record as of the
close of business the preceding day. Such dividends are automatically
reinvested daily in additional shares of the Fund at net asset value.

THE MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIOS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Money Market Portfolios (the Money Market) is a no load, open-end
diversified management investment company (mutual fund), registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Money Market has two portfolios
(the Portfolios) consisting of: The Money Market Portfolio and The U.S.
Government Securities Money Market Portfolio. Each of the Portfolios issues a
separate series of shares and maintains a totally separate and distinct
investment portfolio. The shares of the Money Market are issued in private 
placements and are thus exempt from registration under the Securities Act of
1933.

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

a. SECURITY VALUATION:

Portfolio securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates
value. Each of the Portfolios must maintain a dollar weighted average
maturity of 90 days or less and only purchase instruments having remaining
maturities of 397 days or less. If a Portfolio has a remaining weighted
average maturity of greater than 90 days, the Portfolio will be stated at
value based on recorded closing sales on a national securities exchange or,
in the absence of a recorded sale, within the range of the most recent quoted
bid and asked prices. The trustees have established procedures designed to
stabilize, to the extent reasonably possible, each Portfolio's price per
share as computed for the purpose of sales and redemptions at $1.00.

b. INCOME TAXES:

The Money Market intends to continue to qualify for the tax treatment
applicable to regulated investment companies under the Internal Revenue Code
and to make the requisite distributions to its shareholders which will be
sufficient to relieve it from income and excise taxes. Therefore, no income tax
provision is required.

Each Portfolio is treated as a separate entity in the determination of
compliance with the Internal Revenue Code.

c. 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 for both
financial statement and income tax purposes.

d. INVESTMENT INCOME, EXPENSES AND DISTRIBUTIONS:

Net investment income includes income, calculated on an accrual basis,
amortization of original issue and market discount or premium (if any), and
estimated expenses which are accrued daily. The total available for
dividends is computed daily and includes the net investment income, plus
or minus any gains or losses on security transactions and changes in
unrealized portfolio appreciation or depreciation, (if any).

Dividends are normally declared for each day the New York Stock Exchange
is open for business, equal to the total available for distributions (as
defined above), and are payable to shareholders of record as of the close
of business that day. Such dividends are automatically reinvested monthly in
additional shares of the Portfolio at net asset value.

e. EXPENSE ALLOCATION:

Common expenses incurred by the Money Market are allocated among the
Portfolios based on the ratio of net assets of each Portfolio to the combined
net assets. In all other respects, expenses are charged to each Portfolio
as incurred on a specific identification basis.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)

f. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS:

The Portfolios may enter into repurchase agreements with government
securities dealers recognized by the Federal Reserve Board and/or member
banks of the Federal Reserve System. In a repurchase agreement, the
Portfolios purchases a U.S. government security from a dealer or bank
subject to an agreement to resell it at a mutually agreed upon price and date.
Such a transaction is accounted for as a loan by the Portfolio to the seller,
collateralized by the underlying security. The transaction requires the
initial collateralization of the seller's obligation by U.S. government
securities with market value, including accrued interest, of at least 102% of
the dollar amount invested by the Portfolio, with the value of the underlying
security marked to market daily to maintain coverage of at least 100%. The
collateral is delivered to the Portfolios' custodian and held until resold
to the dealer or bank. At December 31, 1994, all outstanding repurchase
agreements held by the Portfolios had been entered into on that date.

The Portfolios may enter into a sweep agreement with their custodian bank. In
a sweep, the excess cash in the Portfolios' direct deposit accounts at the end
of the day is invested overnight. The Money Market Portfolio's excess cash
is invested in a AAA rated time deposit of Morgan Guaranty Trust Company's
Nassau branch. The U.S. Government Securities Money Market Portfolio's excess
cash is invested in a U.S. government backed repurchase agreement with
Morgan Guaranty of New York. Funds are returned to the Portfolios' direct
deposit accounts as the first transaction of the next business day.


2. TRUST SHARES

At December 31, 1994, there was an unlimited number of $.01 par value
shares of beneficial interest authorized, and paid-in capital aggregated as

THE MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIOS

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Money Market Portfolios (the Money Market) is a no load, open-end
diversified management investment company (mutual fund), registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Money Market has two
portfolios (the Portfolios) consisting of: The Money Market Portfolio and The
U.S. Government Securities Money Market Portfolio. Each of the Portfolios
issues a separate series of shares and maintains a totally separate and
distinct investment portfolio. The shares of the Money Market are issued in
private placements and are thus exempt from registration under the
Securities Act of 1933.

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

a. SECURITY VALUATION:
   
Portfolio securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
Each of the Portfolios must maintain a dollar weighted average maturity of 90
days or less and only purchase instruments having remaining maturities of 397
days or less. If a Portfolio has a remaining weighted average maturity of
greater than 90 days, the Portfolio will be stated at value based on recorded
closing sales on a national securities exchange or, in the absence of a
recorded sale, within the range of the most recent quoted bid and asked prices.
The trustees have established procedures designed to stabilize, to the extent
reasonably possible, each Portfolio's price per share as computed for the
purpose of sales and redemptions at $1.00.

b. INCOME TAXES:
   
The Money Market intends to continue to qualify for the tax treatment
applicable to regulated investment companies under the Internal Revenue Code
and to make the requisite distributions to its shareholders which will be
sufficient to relieve it from income and excise taxes. Therefore, no income tax
provision is required.

Each Portfolio is treated as a separate entity in the determination of
compliance with the Internal Revenue Code.

c. 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 for both
financial statement and income tax purposes.

d. INVESTMENT INCOME, EXPENSES AND DISTRIBUTIONS:
   
Net investment income includes income, calculated on an accrual basis,
amortization of original issue and market discount or premium (if any), and
estimated expenses which are accrued daily. The total available for
dividends is computed daily and includes the net investment income, plus
or minus any gains or losses on security transactions and changes in
unrealized portfolio appreciation or depreciation, (if any).

Dividends are normally declared for each day the New York Stock Exchange
is open for business, equal to the total available for distributions (as
defined above), and are payable to shareholders of record as of the close
of business that day. Such dividends are automatically reinvested monthly in
additional shares of the Portfolio at net asset value.

e. EXPENSE ALLOCATION:
   
Common expenses incurred by the Money Market are allocated among the
Portfolios based on the ratio of net assets of each Portfolio to the combined
net assets. In all other respects, expenses are charged to each Portfolio
as incurred on a specific identification basis.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)

f. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS:
   
The Portfolios may enter into repurchase agreements with government
securities dealers recognized by the Federal Reserve Board and/or member
banks of the Federal Reserve System. In a repurchase agreement, the
Portfolios purchases a U.S. government security from a dealer or bank
subject to an agreement to resell it at a mutually agreed upon price and date.
Such a transaction is accounted for as a loan by the Portfolio to the seller,
collateralized by the underlying security. The transaction requires the
initial collateralization of the sellers obligation by U.S. government
securities with market value, including accrued interest, of at least 102% of
the dollar amount invested by the Portfolio, with the value of the underlying
security marked to market daily to maintain coverage of at least 100%. The
collateral is delivered to the Portfolios' custodian and held until resold to
the dealer or bank. At November 30, 1994, all outstanding repurchase
agreements held by the Portfolios had been entered into on that date.

The Portfolios may enter into a sweep agreement with their custodian bank. In
a sweep, the excess cash in the Portfolios' direct deposit accounts at the end
of the day is invested overnight. The Money Market Portfolio's excess cash is
invested in a AAA rated time deposit of Morgan Guaranty Trust's Nassau
branch. The U.S. Government Securities Money Market Portfolio's excess
cash is invested in a U.S. government backed repurchase agreement with
Morgan Guaranty of New York. Funds are returned to the Portfolios' direct
deposit accounts as the first transaction of the next business day.


2. TRUST SHARES

At November 30, 1994, there was an unlimited number of $.01 par value
shares of beneficial interest authorized, and paid-in capital aggregated as
