Gentlemen:

      You have requested our opinion in connection with  the
registration by the Corporation of an additional  41,458,658
shares  of  its  capital  stock pursuant  to  Post-effective
Amendment No. 11 to the Corporation's registration statement
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under  the
Securities  Act  of 1933 (File No. 33-20627).   The  subject
Post-effective Amendment will be filed pursuant to Paragraph
(b)  of Rule 485 and become effective pursuant to said  Rule
immediately upon filing.

      As counsel we have participated in the organization of
the  Corporation and its registration under  the  Investment
Company  Act.  We have also participated in the  preparation
and   filing   of  the  amended  Corporation's  registration
statement  under  the  Securities Act of  1933  referred  to
above.

      Further,  we have examined and are familiar  with  the
Charter  of the Corporation, its Bylaws and other  corporate
records and documents deemed relevant.

     On the basis of the foregoing, it is our opinion that:

      1.  The Corporation has been duly organized and it  is
legally existing under the laws of the State of Maryland.

       2.    The   Corporation   is  authorized   to   issue
1,000,000,000  shares of capital stock of  a  par  value  of
$.001 per share.

      3.   The authorized and unissued capital stock of  the
Corporation  when  issued  in the manner  described  in  the
prospectus   comprising   a  part   of   the   Corporation's
registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933  for
consideration  equal to or exceeding its par value  and  not
less than its net asset value as required by the Charter  of
the  Corporation  will  be legally  issued  and  outstanding
Capital stock of the Corporation and will be fully paid  and
non-assessable.

      4.   Post-effective Amendment No. 11 does not  contain
disclosures  which  would  render it  ineligible  to  become
effective pursuant to Paragraph (b) of Rule 485.

      We  hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as  a
part  of the Corporation's registration statement filed with
the  Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities
Act  of  1933 and as part of any application or registration
statement  filed under the securities laws of the States  of
the United States.

     We further consent to the reference to this opinion and
the  reference to us as Legal Counsel to the Corporation  in
the prospectus, registration statements and applications.

                                   Very truly yours,

                                      Houston,  Houston  & Donnelly
