REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To the Employee Benefits Committee of
Illinois Tool Works Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets
available for Plan benefits of the ILLINOIS TOOL WORKS INC.
SAVINGS AND INVESTMENT PLAN as of December 31, 1994, and the
related statement of changes in net assets available for Plan
benefits for the six months then ended.  These financial
statements and the schedules referred to below are the
responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules
based on our audit.

We conducted our audit 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 are free of material misstatement.  An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets
available for Plan benefits as of December 31, 1994, and the
changes in net assets available for Plan benefits for the six
months then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on
the basic financial statements taken as a whole.  The
supplemental schedules of assets held for investment purposes and
reportable transaction are presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements but are supplementary information required
by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting
and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974.  The fund information in the statement of net assets
available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets
available for benefits is presented for purposes of additional
analysis rather than to present the net assets available for Plan
benefits and changes in net assets available for Plan benefits of
each fund.  The supplemental schedules and fund information have
been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of
the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly
stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

SAVINGS AND INVESTMENT PLAN


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 1994

EMPLOYER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER 36-1258310, PLAN NUMBER 003



1.DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN AND INVESTMENT PROGRAM:

The following describes the major provisions of the Illinois Tool
Works Inc. Savings and Investment Plan ("the Plan") and provides
only general information.  Participants should refer to the
summary plan description for a more complete description of the
Plan's provisions.

General

Effective July 1, 1994, the Plan was amended and restated.  Significant
changes to the Plan include: (1)  Participants were offered new investment
choices described in the Investment Program section below.  (2)  Up to 25%
of any contribution may be directed to the ITW Commmon Stock Fund.
(3)  Up to 25% of total account values may be transferred to the ITW Common
Stock Fund.  (4)  The Putnam Fiduciary Trust Company (the "Trustee") was
appointed as trustee,  recordkeeper and investment
manager of the Plan.  Effective with the Trustee's appointment,
The Northern Trust Company was removed as trustee, Hewitt
Associates as recordkeeper and Institutional Capital Corporation
as investment manager for the Plan.  Fidelity Investments
continues as investment manager for amounts invested in the
Magellan Fund.

Participation

The Plan is a defined contribution plan in which employees of
Illinois Tool Works Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly owned
subsidiaries, as designated by the Board of Directors, are
eligible to participate in the Plan following completion of one
year of service with the Company.  It is subject to the
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
("ERISA").

Participants' Deposits and Company Contributions

Participants may contribute amounts from a minimum of 1% to a
maximum of 10% of compensation to their deferred (before tax) and
regular (after tax) deposit accounts.  Participants may change
their contribution percentages with each payroll.

<PAGE>

The Company contributes to the participants' accounts based on
their contributions as follows:


       Percentage of
Participants'  Compensation
- ---------------------------

Participants'    Company
Total Deposit  Contribution
- -------------  ------------
       1%          1.0%
       2           1.5
       3           2.0
       4           2.5
      5-10         3.0
      ====         ====

Participant contributions are credited to the participants'
deferred and regular deposit accounts, while the Company's
contributions are credited to the participants' Company
contribution accounts.  Participants may elect to allocate any
contribution in multiples of 1% to the investment funds, provided
that not more than 25% is directed to the ITW Common Stock Fund.

Investment Program

With the appointment of the new trustee, the Company established
new investment funds which replaced the then existing Funds I
through V.  Pursuant to participant elections, assets and the
related account balances were transferred from the then existing
investment funds to the new investment funds in the third quarter 1994.
The new investment fund options are as follows:

a.Putnam Money Market Fund is a money market fund seeking current
income consistent with capital preservation and liquidity.

b.Stable Asset Fund seeks current income consistent with capital
preservation through high-quality bank and insurance company
contracts.

c.Putnam Income Fund seeks high current income consistent with
prudent risk, mainly through fixed-income securities.

d.Lifestage Asset Allocation Fund consist of three portfolios
from which participants can elect to direct their funds.

- -Conservative Portfolio focuses on bonds and money market
vehicles for income while staying ahead of inflation (lowest
risk).

- -Balanced Portfolio is balanced between stocks, bonds and money
market vehicles to offer growth potential with opportunities for
income (reduced risk).

- -Growth Portfolio is well-diversified among different types of
common stocks, but also includes a fixed-income portion to
moderate risk.

<PAGE>

e.Fidelity Investments Magellan Fund seeks long-term capital
appreciation through common stock investments.

f.ITW Common Stock Fund is invested solely in the common stock of
the Company.

g.Putnam New Opportunities Fund seeks long-term capital
appreciation primarily through common stock investments in
companies in economic sectors that Putnam Management believes
offer above-average potential for growth.

h.Restricted Stable Asset Fund amounts are invested with
Confederation Life (see Note 9).

Investment income in each fund is allocated daily among the
participants' balances in each fund, except for the Putnam Money
Market Fund and the Stable Asset Fund.  Investment income in
these two funds is allocated to participant account balances
monthly.

For each of the funds valued daily, investment income is
allocated to participant accounts based on the previous day's
closing share value times the number of shares in their account.
For the monthly valued funds, a month-end share value is
determined by the Trustee from the investments and allocated to
participant accounts based on the number of shares in their
account.

Participants may change their investment elections or transfer
their balances between funds in multiples of 1% on any day, but
no more than twice per quarter.  Up to 25% of total account
values may be transferred to the ITW Common Stock Fund.

Vesting

Participants' interest in their deposit accounts are fully vested
at all times.  Participants' interest in their Company
contribution accounts vest at the rate of 5% for each quarter of
service with the Company.  Participants are fully vested in their
Company contribution accounts after 20 quarters of service with
the Company.  Participants who terminate their participation in
the Plan due to retirement or death are granted full vesting in
their Company contribution accounts.

Participant Loans

Participants, upon demonstrating a financial need, may borrow
from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum
equal to the lesser of (a) 50% of their vested account balance
or (b) $50,000.  Loans bear interest at the
prime rate, are secured by a portion of the participants'
accounts and are repayable over a period not to exceed five
years.  Amounts borrowed do not share in the earnings of the
investment funds but are credited with the interest payments made
pursuant to the loan agreements.

<PAGE>

Benefits

Upon termination of participation, a participant generally
receives a lump-sum payment of his or her deposit and Company
contribution accounts, subject to the vesting provisions
described above.  In certain cases, however, a participant may
elect to remain in the Plan as a noncontributing participant and
defer benefit payments to age 65.  In lieu of a lump-sum payment,
a participant can elect to receive periodic installment payments
of his account balances.  While distributions under the Plan may
be made in cash or in kind, they typically are made in cash.
However, upon the written request of a participant, beneficiary
or the estate, distribution of an interest in the ITW Common
Stock Fund will, in the case of retirement or death, be made in
full shares of the common stock of the Company, with any balance
representing a fraction of a share being paid in cash.  Any other
distributions from the ITW Common Stock Fund will be made in
cash.  All amounts forfeited by participants under the vesting
provisions of the Plan are credited against subsequent
contributions by the Company.

Forfeited Accounts

At December 31, 1994, forfeited nonvested accounts totaled
$10,493.  These accounts will be used to reduce future Company
contributions.

2.SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Basis of Accounting

The accompanying financial statements of the Plan were prepared
on the accrual basis of accounting from the reports of the
Trustee.

Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

Investments are carried at "quoted market values" which are based
on market quotations, if available, or amounts estimated by the
Trustee to be realizable at the date of valuation.  This applies
to all Plan investments except for amounts in the Restricted
Stable Asset Fund.  See Note 9 for a full explanation of these
amounts.

Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade date
basis.  Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.
Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Payment of Benefits

Benefits are recorded when paid.  Amounts allocated to
withdrawing participants but not yet paid as of December 31,
1994, total $632,720.

Gains and Losses

Net realized/unrealized gains on investments are based on the
value of the assets at the beginning of the year or at the date
of purchase during the year, rather than the original cost at the
time of purchase.  The total realized gains on the sales of
investments were $477,710 for the six months ended December 31,
1994.  The total unrealized appreciation of investments was
$7,544,184 for the six months ended December 31, 1994.

<PAGE>

Investment Contracts

Statement of Position 94-4 (Reporting of Investment Contracts
Held by Health and Welfare Benefit Plans and Defined Contribution
Plans)was issued during 1994 and will require defined
contributions plans to report investment contracts at fair value
instead of contract value. The new statement will be effective
for plans beginning after December 15, 1994.  The Company has not
yet adopted SOP 94-4 but does not expect there to be a material
impact on the financial statements of the plan.

3.ADMINISTRATION:

All funds are deposited with and held for safekeeping by the
Trustee under a trust agreement with the Company.  The trust
agreement provides, among other things, that the Trustee shall
keep accounts of all trust transactions and report them
periodically to the Company.  Investment decisions, within the
guidelines of the investment funds, are made by the Trustee.  The
Trustee may use an independent agent to effect purchases and
sales of common stock of the Company for the ITW Common Stock
Fund.  Other administrative services, including participant
recordkeeping, are performed by the Trustee and by Fidelity
Investments, which serves as investment manager for the Magellan
Fund.

4.ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES:

Investment management fees, agent fees and brokerage commissions
are paid by the Plan.  Other outside professional and
administrative services are paid for or provided by the Company.

5.RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds managed by
the Putnam Fiduciary Trust Company.  Putnam is the trustee as
defined by the Plan and, therefore, these transactions qualify as
party-in-interest.  Fees paid by the Plan for investment
management services amounted to $65,428 for the six months ended
December 31, 1994.

6.PLAN TERMINATION:

Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company
has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at
any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of
ERISA.  In the event of Plan termination, participants will
become 100% vested in their accounts.

7.TAX STATUS:

The Plan obtained its latest determination letter on May 7, 1992,
in which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as
then designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements
of the Internal Revenue Code.  The Plan has been amended since
receiving the determination letter.  An application for
determination has been filed on March 10, 1995, to include the
latest plan amendments.  The plan administrator and the Plan's
legal counsel believe that the Plan is currently designed and
being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code.  Therefore, they believe that the Plan
was qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as of the
financial statement date.

<PAGE>

8.INFORMATION CERTIFIED BY THE TRUSTEE:

The information regarding investments and investment income of
the Plan contained in the accompanying financial statements and
schedules has been certified by the Trustee as being complete and
accurate.

9.CONFEDERATION LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY:

On August 12, 1994, the Canadian Government seized the operations
of the Confederation Life Insurance Company.  The Plan's
investments in the Stable Asset Fund included a Confederation
Life contract with a market value of $6,287,672 at August 12,
1994.  This investment represents approximately 5% of the Stable
Asset Fund assets and 2% of the total Plan assets at June 30,
1994.

As of June 30, 1994, the Confederation Life Contract were frozen
and segregated from the Stable Asset Fund.  The assets are
included in the Restricted Stable Asset Fund which represents the
amounts invested with Confederation Life.  Participants in the
Restricted Stable Asset Fund are not allowed to transfer out,
withdraw or borrow against amounts in this fund.

The Trustee will value the contract at the market value on August
12, 1994, until sufficient data is available to value it higher
or lower.  The Company's management does not anticipate that the
seizure will result in a loss to the participants.

10.SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

Effective April 28, 1995, the Miller Shared Savings Plan was
merged into the Plan.  The transfer of assets to the Plan
occurred on April 28, 1995.  The assets transferred to the Plan
totaled approximately $70,000,000.
