Re: Tax-Free Trust of Arizona
File Nos. 33-1857 and 811-4503
Dear Sirs:
On behalf of Tax-Free of Arizona (the "Trust") I enclose for
filing with the Commission, pursuant to Rule 485(b) under the
Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act") and pursuant to the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), the following
documents:
In accordance with Rule 472(b) under the 1933 Act and
Rule 8b-11 under the 1940 Act, the text on Form N-1A of
Post-Effective Amendment No. 19 to the Registration
Statement of the Trust under the 1933 Act and Amendment
No. 20 to the Registration Statement of the Fund under
the 1940 Act, marked to show changes.
Pursuant to Rule 485(b) it is proposed that this amendment
will become effective on October 31, 2000.
This filing does not contain disclosures that would make it
ineligible to be filed under Rule 485(b). The filing conforms to
comments we received with respect to numerous filings for other
funds during 1999, and as such has numerous technical revisions
from the prior filing, which although important do not make the
filing ineligible under Rule 495(b).
Very truly yours,
/s/ W.L.D. Barrett
William L. D. Barrett
