Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to the Funds referred to above with respect
to preparation of their Rule 24f-2 Notices for the fiscal year ended October 31,
1995, and with respect to the issuance of all shares referred to therein. It is
our opinion that all shares issued by the Funds referred to above, during the
fiscal year ended October 31, 1995, and which are referred to in the Rule 24f-2
Notices, are legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable by the respective
Funds.
Very truly yours,
DAVIS WRIGHT TREMAINE
