Re: Vanguard World Funds (the "Funds")
File No. 2-14336
Commissioners:
On Wednesday, January 3, 2001, Vanguard filed an N-30D filing for Vanguard
Municipal Bond Funds. Unfortunately, the submission page read that the filing
was to be made on behalf of the Vanguard World Funds. We did resubmit the filing
using the correct CIK number. I am hereby requesting that you remove the filing
made on behalf of the Vanguard World Funds. Below is the information you will
need to complete this change:
Vanguard World Funds
File Number: 2-14336
Date of Filing: January 3, 2001
CIK Number: 0000052848
Accession Number: 0000932471-01-000006
Please feel free to contact me at (610) 669-6295 if you have any questions or
need additional information regarding this filing.
Sincerely,
Loretta B. Russo
