INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Committee of
The Procter & Gamble Commercial Company
Employees' Savings Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of The Procter & Gamble Commercial Company Employees' Savings Plan (the "Plan")
as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related statements of changes in net
assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31,
1995 and 1994, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the
years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental information by fund is
presented for the purpose of additional analysis of the basic financial
statements rather than to present information regarding the net assets available
for benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits of the individual
funds, and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. The
accompanying supplemental schedules of (1) assets held for investment as of
December 31, 1995 and (2) reportable transactions for the year ended December
31, 1995 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. This supplemental information by fund and these accompanying schedules are
the responsibility of the Plan's management. Such supplemental information by
fund and accompanying schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures
applied in our audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are
fairly stated in all material respects when considered in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

THE PROCTER & GAMBLE COMMERCIAL
COMPANY EMPLOYEES' SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 1994
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The Procter & Gamble Commercial Company Employees' Savings Plan (the
"Plan") is a voluntary defined contribution plan available for all
regular, full-time employees of The Procter & Gamble Commercial Company,
who are residents of Puerto Rico, have completed one year of service,
and whose conditions of employment are not subject to a collective
bargaining agreement, unless such agreement provides to the contrary.
The Plan was established effective November 1, 1993 and is sponsored by
The Procter & Gamble Commercial Company (the "Company"). Employees may
contribute, through payroll deductions, from 1% to 10% of their
compensation. The Company makes matching contributions to the Plan for
each pay period equal to 40% of the first 5% of compensation the
participant elects to contribute to the Plan. Forfeitures of non-vested
Company contributions are used to reduce future Company contributions to
the Plan. Participants are always 100% vested in their personal
contributions and any earnings thereon. Participants become 100% vested
in the Company matching contributions on their behalf upon the
occurrence of any of the following events: completion of five years of
service with the Company; attaining age 65; total disability while
employed by the Company or death while employed by the Company. Upon
participants' termination or retirement, their vested account balance
will be paid in a single lump sum in cash or in Procter & Gamble common
stock. If participants terminate employment before retirement and the
account balance in their Company matching contributions account exceeds
$3,500, it will not be distributed to the participants until their 65th
birthday, unless participants and their spouse (if applicable) consent
in writing to an earlier distribution. The Plan is subject to the
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
("ERISA"). 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.
Under the provisions of the Plan, participating employees may elect to
invest their contributions in one or more of the following master trust
investment funds that are administered by Oriental Bank & Trust (the
"Trustees"):
FIXED INCOME FUND - Invests in fixed income obligations including
short-term securities issued or guaranteed by the United States
government. This fund intends to obtain high interest rates through low
risk short-term investments while preserving the principal.
GROWTH FUND - Invests in diversified growth stocks of large United
States and multinational companies whose earnings have been increasing
consistently over the years. This fund seeks a long-term capital growth.
EQUITY FUND - Invests in common stocks of large United States and
multinational companies. This fund seeks long-term capital growth by
participating in the growth of the economy.
THE PROCTER & GAMBLE COMPANY COMMON STOCK FUND - Invests solely in
common stock of The Procter & Gamble Company.
All of the Plan's investment options under the Oriental Master Trust
invest solely in Fidelity Investments funds with similar investment
objectives.

<PAGE>
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS - All investments are stated at fair value.
PLAN EXPENSES - All expenses incurred in administering the Plan may be
paid out of the invested assets unless paid by the Company.
3. INVESTMENTS
At December 31, 1995 and 1994, the Plan owned 2.6, 6.2 and 4.8 percent
and 3.4, 10.3 and 8.18 percent of the total current value of the
investments of the Fixed Income Fund, Growth Fund and Equity Fund,
respectively.
Investment income and the net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair
value of the investments held by the Oriental Master Trust are allocated
to the participating defined contribution plans based on each plan's
proportional interest in the fair value of such investments.
4. PARTY IN INTEREST INVESTMENTS AND TRANSACTIONS
The Procter & Gamble Commercial Company is a party-in-interest, as
defined by ERISA. There were no prohibited party-in-interest investments
or transactions for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994.
5. INCOME TAXES
The Plan is exempt from Puerto Rico income taxes under the provisions of
Section 165 (a) and (e) of the Puerto Rico Income Tax Act of 1954
("ITA"), as amended. The Plan is not qualified under Section 401(a) of
the Internal Revenue Code, but it is exempt from United States taxation
under Section 1022 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974. The Plan is required to operate in conformity with the ITA to
maintain its qualification.
The Plan participants are not taxed on the income and contributions made
for their accounts until such time as the participant or the
participant's beneficiary receives distributions from the Plan.
