      Report of Ernst & Young LLP, Independent Auditors


Board of Directors
Reynolds Metals Company

We  have  audited the accompanying statements of net  assets
available  for plan benefits of the Reynolds Metals  Company
Savings  Plan for Hourly Employees as of December  31,  1998
and 1997, and the related statement of changes in net assets
available for plan benefits for the year ended December  31,
1998.  These financial statements are the responsibility  of
the  management  of  Reynolds  Metals  Company,  the  Plan's
sponsor.   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, the financial statements referred to  above
present  fairly, in all material respects,  the  net  assets
available for plan benefits of the Plan at December 31, 1998
and  1997,  and the changes in its net assets available  for
plan  benefits  for  the year ended December  31,  1998,  in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our  audits  were performed for the purpose  of  forming  an
opinion  on  the financial statements taken as a whole.  The
accompanying supplemental schedule of loans as  of  December
31,  1998,  is  presented  for  the  purpose  of  additional
analysis  and  is  not  a  required part  of  the  financial
statements but is 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   schedule   is   the
responsibility   of   the  Plan's  management.    The   Fund
Information  in the statements of net assets  available  for
plan  benefits  and the statement of changes in  net  assets
available  for  plan benefits is presented for  purposes  of
additional  analysis rather than to present the  net  assets
available  for  plan  benefits and  changes  in  net  assets
available  for plan benefits of each fund.  The supplemental
schedule  and  Fund  Information  have  been  subjected   to
auditing  procedures applied in our audits of the  financial
statements  and, in our opinion, are fairly  stated  in  all
material  respects  in relation to the financial  statements
taken as a whole.

                  (Dollars in Thousands)

1. Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of income and
expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

The accounting records of the Reynolds Metals Company
Savings Plan for Hourly Employees ("Plan") are maintained on
the accrual basis.  All securities transactions are recorded
as of the trade date.

Investments in Reynolds Metals Company Common Stock (stated
at fair value) are valued at the last reported sales price
on the last business day of the year.  Investments in mutual
funds are measured by quoted market prices and are reported
at aggregate fair value at year-end.  Guaranteed investment
contracts with insurance companies are reported at "contract
value," which equals cost plus accrued income.  Structured
investment contracts are reported at fair value, which in
the case of such contracts equals contract value.

2. Summary of Significant Plan Provisions

Reynolds Metals Company (the "Company") established the Plan
effective January 1, 1986, covering hourly employees of the
Company and certain of its subsidiaries (each an "Employer")
who are in a bargaining unit covered by a labor agreement
that incorporates the Plan by reference.  The Plan is a
defined contribution plan under the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") and qualifies as a
"cash or deferred" arrangement under Section 401(k) of the
Internal Revenue Code.  A complete description of the Plan
is contained in the Summary Plan Description and in the Plan
document, copies of which are available from the Company.

Hourly employees who are in a bargaining unit covered by a
collective bargaining agreement that incorporates the Plan
will become eligible to participate in the Plan on the later
of (a) 30 days after beginning their employment with an
Employer, or (b) the date on which the collective bargaining
agreement under which they are covered first incorporates
the Plan by reference.  Plan participation is voluntary.

         Notes to Financial Statements (continued)



2. Summary of Significant Plan Provisions (continued)

Each collective bargaining agreement that incorporates the
Plan by reference provides that participants may elect to
make payroll contributions to the Plan in specified amounts
ranging from 1% to 12% of compensation in 1% increments.
Each such collective bargaining agreement may also provide
for the following types of contributions:

  (a)  Company Matching Contributions:  At certain bargaining
       units, the applicable Employer will, subject to certain
       limitations, contribute to the Plan on behalf of each
       eligible participant, a fixed percentage of a portion of the
       payroll contributions by the participant.
  (b)  Negotiated Deferral Contributions:  At certain
       bargaining units, the applicable Employer will make a
       contribution to a participant's account based on the number
       of hours worked by each active employee participating in the
       Plan.
  (c)  Additional Voluntary Contributions:  Eligible employees
       who receive a profit sharing award, gainsharing payment or
       other designated type of lump sum payment may contribute
       between 10% and 50% of the award and/or payment (in 10%
       increments) to the Plan.  Such contributions are not matched
       by the Company or any other Employer.

Participants may elect to make their contributions on a
before or after tax basis or a combination thereof.
Employer contributions (matching and negotiated deferral)
are made on a "pretax" basis. Highly compensated
participants may be required to reduce the amount of
"pretax" contributions made to or held by the Plan on
their behalf to permit the Plan to satisfy the
nondiscrimination requirements of Section 401(k) of the
Internal Revenue Code.

Participants are fully vested in their account balances.
Withdrawals and distributions are handled in accordance
with the Plan provisions and are subject to certain
regulatory restrictions. The trustee holds all of the
Plan's investment assets and executes transactions
therein.


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 and subject to the
terms of any applicable collective bargaining agreement.

2. Summary of Significant Plan Provisions (continued)

The Company is the Plan administrator and bears the related
costs, except for investment-related and trustee fees, which
are paid by the Plan.

3. Commingled Master Trust Investments

All of the investments of the Plan as of December 31, 1998
and 1997 were held in a Master Trust under a Master Trust
Agreement between Reynolds Metals Company and The Northern
Trust Company, as trustee, and are commingled with the
assets of three other savings plans of the Company and one
of its subsidiaries. Net assets and net investment gains
(losses) from the Master Trust are allocated to
participating plans based on the aggregate account balance
of individual participants in each Plan.

Substantially all the assets held in the Diversified
Equities Fund and the Balanced Investment Fund are invested
in the Vanguard Institutional Index Fund and the Vanguard
STAR Fund, respectively. These are no-load mutual funds held
and managed by The Vanguard Group of Investment Companies.
Substantially all of the assets held in the International
Equities Fund and the Small Capitalization Equities Fund are
invested in the T. Rowe Price Foreign Equity Fund and the T.
Rowe Price Small-Cap Value Fund, respectively. These are
no-load mutual funds held and managed by T. Rowe Price
Associates, Inc.

The assets of the Interest Income Fund generally are
invested in guaranteed investment contracts ("GICs") at
fixed rates of return and structured investment contracts
("SICs") with various insurance companies and banks. SICs
represent high grade investments held in the name of the
Master Trust in conjunction with a corresponding contract
with the issuer of the SIC to provide a fixed or variable
rate of return (based on investment experience and reset
quarterly) on the cost of the investment. GICs and SICs
generally provide for the full repayment of principal and
interest. Upon the occurrence of certain events (including
layoffs by the Company or its applicable affiliates),
however, market value of the GIC or SIC, if lower than its
book value, may be repaid (a "Market Value Adjustment").
Currently, in the opinion of the Company, the likelihood of
a material loss to the Plan as a result of such a Market
Value Adjustment is remote. The annual rate of return on
these contracts during 1998 and 1997 was approximately 6.3%
and 6.3%, respectively. The current yield on these contracts
at December 31, 1998 was 6.3% (6.3% at December 31, 1997).
Interest is credited to participants' accounts on the dollar-
weighted average (blended rate) basis. The fair value of the
Plan's GICs approximates contract value.

3. Commingled Master Trust Investments (continued)

No individual SIC or GIC exceeded 5% of the Master Trust's
assets, except for a SIC with Transamerica Life with a
balance of approximately $41,000 at December 31, 1998
($39,000 at December 31, 1997).

Cash and cash equivalents of the Master Trust are invested
in a short-term investment fund managed by The Northern
Trust Company.

During 1998 and 1997, certain assets of the Plan were
transferred into other plans and from other plans of the
Company as a result of employee transfers. There was no
effect on any participant's accounts as a result of the
transfer.

Summarized financial fund information of the commingled
accounts within the Master Trust is presented below:

5. Income Tax Status

The Plan has received a determination letter from the
Internal Revenue Service dated February 20, 1996, stating
that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") and, therefore, the
related trust is exempt from taxation.  Once qualified, the
Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code to
maintain its qualification.  The Company has indicated that
it will take the necessary steps, if any, to maintain the
Plan's qualified status.
