Important Information
Through our ongoing efforts to reduce expenses and respond to shareholder
requests, your annual and semiannual report mailings are "streamlined." One copy
of each report is sent to each address, rather than to every registered owner.
For many shareholders and their families, this eliminates duplicate copies,
saving paper and postage costs to the Fund.
If you are the primary shareholder on at least one account, prefer not to
participate in streamlining, and would like to continue receiving one report per
registered account owner, you may request this in writing to:
USAA Investment Management Company

San Antonio, TX 78284-8916
or phone a Mutual Fund Representative at 1-800-531-8448 during business hours.
This report is for the information of the shareholders and others who have
received a copy of the currently effective prospectus of the USAA Treasury Money
Market Trust, managed by USAA Investment Management Company (IMCO). It may be
used as sales literature only when preceded or accompanied by a current
prospectus which gives further details about the Fund.

Message from the President
[PHOTOGRAPH OF PRESIDENT AND VICE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD, MICHAEL J.C. ROTH, CFA,
APPEARS HERE]
When I was a second lieutenant in pilot training at Williams AFB, I read the
book THIS KIND OF WAR by T. R. Fehrenbach. More than 30 years later I met Ted
Fehrenbach here in San Antonio where he resides and had a chance to tell him
that I think he is a brilliant man. I recall reading that LBJ declared THIS KIND
OF WAR required reading for people in his administration. Ted writes a regular
Sunday column for the San Antonio Express News, and he continues to delight me.
Last year he wrote a piece around Columbus Day, which included this observation:
"Spain was clearly disappointed with her admiral. While he had spent much
money charting islands with mosquitoes and a miserable climate (from the
Euro standpoint)...the Portuguese had reached the real India and returned
with fabulous profits. Of course, Columbus had opened up to Spain a vast
empire, filled with treasures of every kind, but then few investors take the
long view."
As I read this passage, I thought that Ted's understanding of markets is as
sharp as his grasp of history. At the beginning of 1999, there indeed seemed to
be few investors with the long view. There were many people declaring the
absolute superiority of the S&P 500 and growth stocks, especially tech stocks,
while proclaiming that strategies such as value investing and asset allocation
were no longer relevant.
The S&P 500 and its index funds have had a wondrous four years, but here we are
five-and-a-half months into 1999, and what a difference we're seeing: The Dow
Jones Industrial Average is up more than twice as much as the S&P 500 so far
this year.
The S&P 500 Index is heavily influenced by companies like America Online, Cisco
Systems, Intel, IBM, Lucent, MCI, and Microsoft. The Dow also includes IBM, but
its impetus is coming from companies such as J.P. Morgan, Alcoa, Caterpillar,
Disney, General Motors, and Union Carbide. The upshot of this is that you can
afford to take the long view. Value investing or asset allocation are just
different from a growth philosophy. My view, throughout the last 27 years, is
that these methods go through cycles of in-favor and out-of-favor. But they do
cycle. And just about the time you begin to read that one of them is no longer
viable, you can bet the market will change. A good discipline practiced well
will give you a very good chance of prospering in the long run.
Sincerely,
Michael J.C. Roth, CFA
President and
Vice Chairman of the Board

FULL STEAM AHEAD
Last year, the Federal Reserve (Fed) sought to offset a slowdown in the U.S.
economy that could have been caused by reduced trade with other countries.
Actions were implemented by the Fed during October and November of 1998 which
lowered the Federal Funds rate by 0.75%. It worked. Over the course of the last
few months, numerous economic statistics have been released indicating the
strength of the U.S. economy. As represented by statistics such as job growth,
wages, and manufacturing strength, the U.S. economy appears to be going full
steam ahead. Many economists are currently expecting the Fed to increase the
Federal Funds rate in order to prevent inflationary pressures that could result
from the domestic economy growing too quickly.
Strong indicators of the robust growth in the U.S economy have caused market
interest rates to rise over the last few weeks. At the end of November 1998,
Treasury bills were yielding 4.49%. With the rise in market rates, Treasury
bills were yielding 4.97% at the end of May 1999. With the Federal Funds rate
target currently at 4.75%, Treasury securities have become more attractive. In
response to this trend, I have begun to shift more of the Fund's assets into
Treasury bills and notes. As of May 31, 1999, the USAA Treasury Money Market
Trust had 59.3% in repurchase agreements and 37.2% in Treasury bills and notes.
As long as Treasuries continue to provide value over repurchase agreements, we
will continue to purchase more Treasury securities.
The above strategy continues to perform well. According to IBC Financial Data,
the Treasury Money Market Trust continues to be ranked among the top money
market funds. For the 12 months ended May 31, 1999, your Fund ranked 4th out of
95 Treasury money market funds with a yield of 4.83%. Past performance is no
guarantee of future results.

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

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the

USAA TREASURY MONEY MARKET TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
May 31, 1999
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
USAA INVESTMENT TRUST (the Trust), registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended, is a diversified, open-end management investment company
organized as a Massachusetts business trust consisting of eleven separate funds.
The information presented in this annual report pertains only to the USAA
Treasury Money Market Trust (the Fund). The Fund's investment objective is to
provide maximum current income while maintaining the highest degree of safety
and liquidity. USAA Investment Management Company (the Manager) seeks to achieve
this objective by investing the Fund's assets in U.S. Government securities with
maturities of 397 days or less.
A. Security valuation - The value of each security is determined (as of the
close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange on each business day the
Exchange is open) as set forth below:
1. Pursuant to Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
securities in the Fund are stated at amortized cost which approximates market
value. Repurchase agreements are valued at cost.
2. Securities which cannot be valued by the methods set forth above, and all
other assets, are valued in good faith at fair value, using methods determined
by the Manager under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.
B. Federal taxes - The Fund's policy is to comply with the requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute substantially all of its income to its shareholders. Therefore, no
federal income or excise tax provision is required.
C. Investments in securities - Security transactions are accounted for on the
date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Interest income is
recorded on the accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities are
amortized over the life of the respective securities. Gain or loss from sales of
investment securities is computed on the identified cost basis.
D. Use of estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts in the financial
statements.
(2) LINES OF CREDIT
The Fund participates with other USAA funds in three joint short-term revolving
loan agreements totaling $850 million, two with USAA Capital Corporation
(CAPCO), an affiliate of the Manager ($250 million committed and $500 million
uncommitted), and one with Bank of America ($100 million committed). The purpose
of the agreements is to meet temporary or emergency cash needs, including
redemption requests that might otherwise require the untimely disposition of
securities. Subject to availability under both agreements with CAPCO, the Fund
may borrow from CAPCO an amount up to 5% of the Fund's total assets at CAPCO's
borrowing rate with no markup. Subject to availability under its agreement with
Bank of America, the Fund may borrow from Bank of America, at Bank of America's
borrowing rate plus a markup, an amount which, when added to outstanding
borrowings under the CAPCO agreements, does not exceed 25% of the Fund's total
assets. The Fund had no borrowings under either of these agreements during the
year ended May 31, 1999.
(3) DISTRIBUTIONS
Net investment income is accrued daily as dividends and distributed to
shareholders monthly. Distributions of realized gains from security transactions
not offset by capital losses are made in the succeeding fiscal year or as
otherwise required to avoid the payment of federal taxes.
(4) INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Cost of purchases and proceeds from sales/maturities of securities for the
period ended May 31, 1999, were $17.2 billion and $17.2 billion, respectively.
(5) TRANSACTIONS WITH MANAGER
A. Management fees - USAA Investment Management Company carries out the Fund's
investment policies and manages the Fund's portfolio. The Fund's management fees
are computed at .125% of its annual average net assets.
The Manager has voluntarily agreed to limit the annual expenses of the Fund to
.375% of its annual average net assets through October 1, 1999.
B. Transfer agent's fees - USAA Transfer Agency Company, d/b/a USAA Shareholder
Account Services, an affiliate of the Manager, provides transfer agent services
to the Fund based on an annual charge of $28.50 per shareholder account plus
out-of-pocket expenses.
C. Underwriting services - The Manager provides exclusive underwriting and
distribution of the Fund's shares on a continuing best efforts basis. The
Manager receives no commissions or fees for this service.
(6) TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Certain trustees and officers of the Fund are also directors, officers, and/or
employees of the Manager. None of the affiliated trustees or Fund officers
received any compensation from the Fund.
(7) REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with commercial banks or
recognized security dealers. These agreements are secured by obligations backed
by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. Obligations pledged as
collateral are required to maintain a value equal to or in excess of the resale
price of the repurchase agreement and are held by the Fund's custodian until
maturity of the repurchase agreement. The Fund's Manager monitors the
creditworthiness of sellers with which the Fund may enter into repurchase
agreements.
(8) YEAR 2000 (UNAUDITED)
Like other mutual funds, the Fund could be adversely affected if the computer
systems used by the Manager and the Fund's other service providers are not able
to perform their intended functions effectively after 1999 because of the
inability of computer software to distinguish the year 2000 from the year 1900.
The Manager is taking steps to address this potential year 2000 problem with
respect to the computer systems that they use and to obtain satisfactory
assurances that the comparable steps are being taken by the Fund's other major
service providers. At this time, however, there can be no assurance that these
steps will be sufficient to avoid any adverse impact to the Fund from this
problem.
(9) SHAREHOLDER DIVIDENDS (UNAUDITED)
The USAA Treasury Money Market Trust earned 35.5% of its income from investments
in U.S. Treasury securities during the year.
The distributions related to earnings for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1999,
were $.05 per share, which were entirely derived from taxable interest income.
