EVERGREEN MONEY MARKET FUNDS
A REVIEW OF THE PAST YEAR AND
PROSPECTS FOR THE FUTURE
BY STEPHEN A. LIEBER, CHAIRMAN
EVERGREEN ASSET MANAGEMENT CORP.
In projecting the outlook for the United States
economy in the final months of 1995, one central fact
dominates the discussion; inflation is being held to (photo of Stephen Lieber)
the very low single digits. For a nation which has,
for over twenty-five years, been preoccupied in all
economic forecasting with apprehension over the outlook for inflation, this is a
period of remarkable calm. Instead of concerns over inflation, the dominant
anxiety with which investors look to the future, is now that of the price level
of securities; stocks and bonds. That price level, however, is a reflection of
changing perceptions of the inflation risk. Comparison of inflation rates,
interest rates, and equity valuation, at the beginning of the long-bull market
which began in the summer of 1982, clarifies these points. The inflation rate
fell from 7.2% in the second quarter of 1982, to 2.5% in the third quarter of
1995. Thirty-year U.S. Treasury Bond yields fell from 12.97% to 6.52%, and
90-day U.S. Treasury Bill rates from 11.91% to 5.31%, while price/earnings
ratios have risen (on the S&P 500 Stock Index) from 7.8 times to 16.6 times.
Clearly, both bonds and stocks are worth more in this environment of lowered
inflation and reduced inflationary expectations.
Thus far, in 1995, the hoped for "soft landing" of the economy into a slower,
non-inflationary expansion has been achieved. The issue of its future course is,
however, open to analysis and debate. There can be little debate over today's
cautious policies. There is a broad acceptance of the need to sustain low
leverage financial policies; minimizing the build-up of debt by both government
and industry, accelerating productivity gains, and economizing resources. This
is not only an anti-inflationary mentality, but it is also a conservative,
counter-expansionary economic growth policy. Politicians are prouder of
cut-backs than of expansion in public services. Businessmen boast of "re-
engineering" which results in lay-offs, rather than of hiring. When new
facilities are built, they are described as enhancers of productivity, not just
as producers of products or services. Business and labor alike think of their
pricing as competing in the world market. Industry wants to sell in the world
markets, and labor does not want to be outpriced by alternative manufacturing
sources in low labor cost countries. These policies push productivity,
price-restraint, and wage-restraint.
Policies of restraint, evident in so many sectors of the economy, lead some
observers to apprehensions that they will be over-done. If consumer demand slows
and business inventories build, it is argued, then a cycle of manufacturing
cutbacks will lead to accelerating lay-offs and another recessionary period. The
counter-argument holds that there are enough dynamic growth potentials on the
horizon for consumer products and services, and for increasing exports, so that
this negative prediction will not be realized. This positive point of view looks
to the increasing demand for American products, particularly technologically
sophisticated consumer and capital goods products, and the output of our
multi-national corporations which sell products in developing countries to
accelerate demand for our exports. It holds that the rapid technological change,
notably in electronics and communications, is bringing enough new demand from
both the industrial and the consumer
sectors to act as the catalyst for overall consumer and industrial goods demand
growth.
Whether the "soft landing" scenario continues in the next few months, and the
economy shows modest expansion, or a slowdown begins to emerge, the likelihood
is that inflation will remain under control. This provides for a continuing
pattern of the recently lowered interest rate levels. Whether long-term and
short-term interest rates move significantly lower than today's 6.3%, 30-year
U.S. Treasury Bonds, and 5.5%, 1-year U. S. Treasury Bills, depends not only on
the strengthening or weakening of the domestic economy, but also on the
comparative interest rates being paid by other major industrial nations, and the
stability of the dollar. Our interest rates must be in equilibrium

A REVIEW OF THE PAST YEAR AND
PROSPECTS FOR THE FUTURE -- (continued)
with others, when adjusted for their inflation rates and the values of our
currency. Presently, the trends in the major industrial countries, Germany and
Japan, suggest continued slower growth than that recently experienced by the
American economy, with prospective declining inflationary trends. This should
enable the United States Federal Reserve to retain sufficient flexibility, so
that rates can be brought down if the economy slows too rapidly and, thus, to
sustain our economic strength without being pressured toward unreasonably high
interest rates.
We believe that the general level of valuation of both stocks and bonds is
likely to be sustained. Individual equity issues will, of course, reflect
prevailing business conditions. Emphasis in owning equities, we believe, should
be on powerful business franchises, companies with both leadership and dynamic
growth characteristics, providing vital services or products. On average, the
level of equities valuation is in line with current interest rate trends, but,
it is apparent that large sectors of the market are priced on highly optimistic
growth expectations. These sectors and issues are subject to quick and major
downward revaluation to the extent that their businesses fail to show strong
evidence of continued high growth rates. As the economy remains slower than over
the past two years, it will evidently be more difficult to show extraordinary
growth rates. Therefore, we anticipate a renewed interest in those businesses
which are undervalued in terms of their growth potential, especially those
beginning, or, in process of, programs for profit margin improvement and profits
growth.
We continue to believe that the merger and acquisition trend will continue,
as larger companies seek to capitalize on opportunities for economies of scale
and synergies through mergers and acquisitions. This movement, already strong,
is expected to broaden as a deregulatory atmosphere continues to develop through
new legislative initiatives.
In summary, we anticipate an environment where careful selection of equities
and careful analysis of current economic trends in fixed income investing will
combine to sustain rewarding long-term investment programs.

EVERGREEN MONEY MARKET ANNUAL REPORT
(photo of cash)
A REPORT FROM YOUR
PORTFOLIO MANAGER
BY ETHEL SUTTON
We are pleased to bring you the 1995 Annual Report for
Evergreen Money Market Fund. On July 7, 1995, the First Union
Money Market Fund was combined into the Evergreen Money Market (photo of
Fund. As of August 31, the Fund's assets totalled approximately Ethel Sutton)
$976 million.
At their July 6 meeting, the Federal Open Market Committee
shaved one-quarter of a percent off the Federal Funds rate, the
primary interbank lending rate, in response to the decline in
inflation. Since inflationary forces are clearly at bay, many
economists are now predicting further interest rate cuts during
the remainder of the year.
We think that interest rates may be headed lower, or at least
remain stable through 1995, therefore, we have tried to lock in
higher rates for our investors by pushing out the Fund's average
days to maturity. On March 1, the Fund's average weighted
maturity was 53 days; on August 31, it was 81 days.
As this strategy indicates, we take a pro-active approach to managing the
Fund's investment portfolio. For instance, we often capitalize on market
anomalies that can cause similar securities to sell at different prices, and we
try to enhance yield by trading on these differences.
The Fund continues to be well-diversified in high-quality liquid money market
instruments. We will continue to strive to provide the same competitive
performance that has always been the hallmark of Evergreen Money Market Fund.
AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUND IS NEITHER INSURED NOR GUARANTEED BY THE U.S.
GOVERNMENT, AND THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE FUND WILL BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN
A STABLE NET ASSET VALUE OF $1.00 PER SHARE.
* HAD EXPENSES NOT BEEN ABSORBED THE 7-DAY CURRENT AND EFFECTIVE YIELDS AS OF
AUGUST 31, 1995, WOULD HAVE BEEN 5.29% AND 5.43%, RESPECTIVELY. YIELDS
FLUCTUATE.

EVERGREEN TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUND
(Photo of eagle)
A REPORT FROM YOUR PORTFOLIO MANAGER
BY STEVEN C. SHACHAT
We are pleased to bring you
our 1995 Annual Report. As you know, effective July 7,
1995, First Union Money Tax Free Market Portfolio was (photo of
combined into Evergreen Tax Exempt Money Market Fund. As Steven Shachat)
of August 31, the Fund's
assets totalled $976,413,830.
The Federal Reserve Board relaxed its policy of monetary restraint on July 6,
when it lowered the Fed Funds rate. The reduction ended the upward pressure on
short-term rates that had prevailed since the beginning of 1994. The Fed's
restraint was based on concern about a resurgence of inflation, given the strong
economic news then prevailing. However, in July, reports indicated a significant
weakening trend in the economy. The July reduction in the Fed Funds rate
signaled that economic growth issues outweighed, for a time, Federal Reserve
fears of resurgence of inflation. The Fed's easing was limited to a lowering of
the Fed Funds rate by 25 basis points (.25%); the discount rate remained at
5.25% -- the level it has been for most of 1995.
While market fundamentals do affect the short-term municipal market, the
overriding influence continues to be market technicals (i.e. supply/ demand).
The portfolio holdings that provide the highest degree of liquidity are 1-day
and 7-day demand notes. Since the rates on these notes, which the Fund held
during the reporting period, are adjusted on a daily or weekly basis, the Fund's
fluctuating yields reflected these rapid adjustments over time. For example, the
entire tax-exempt note market exhibited significant strength during late June
and early July as demand exceeded supply, and short-term yields on securities
dropped accordingly. More recently, market conditions have begun to stabilize
and yields have returned to more attractive levels. However, over the coming
months, we believe supply and demand conditions could still result in market
weakness, and thereby provide additional buying opportunities. This does not
rule out the possibility of another Fed easing. Nevertheless, we currently
expect the market's technical factors to outweigh the effect of any further
monetary action.
Responding to this changing interest rate environment and in anticipation of
a flat yield curve in the one-year market, we decreased the Fund's average
maturity to 21 days. This strategy has enabled the Fund to benefit from
technical aberrations in the market while providing the portfolio with a greater
cushion of liquidity.
As always, whatever the economic environment, we remain committed to our
efforts of preserving the integrity of your investment and providing you with
top-quality investment results.
* THE FUND'S YIELD MAY VARY, AND THERE CAN BE NO GUARANTEE THAT THE FUND WILL
ACHIEVE ITS OBJECTIVE OR ANY PARTICULAR TAX EXEMPT YIELD. INCOME MAY BE SUBJECT
TO SOME STATE OR LOCAL TAXES, AND THE FEDERAL ALTERNATIVE MINIMUM TAX FOR
CERTAIN INVESTORS. AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUND IS NEITHER INSURED NOR GUARANTEED
BY THE U.S. GOVERNMENT AND THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE FUND WILL BE ABLE
TO MAINTAIN A STABLE NET ASSET VALUE OF $1.00 PER SHARE.

A REPORT FROM YOUR
PORTFOLIO MANAGER
BY KELLIE ALLEN
The primary means by which the Federal Reserve attempts to
control the economy is by raising or lowering short-term rates,
i.e., the Fed Funds rate. For example, if the economy is growing
too fast or inflation is rising above an acceptable level, the (photo of
Federal Reserve can raise the Fed Funds rate and, in essence, Kellie Allen)
try to "put the brakes" on the economy.
In 1994, as the economy gained momentum, concern grew over
these very issues of a fast growing economy and rising
inflation. The Federal Reserve responded by raising short-term
rates six times, and once more in February of 1995.
Early in 1995, as signs of a slowing economy began to emerge,
investors bid down long-term interest rates. Yet, the Fed held steady,
maintaining the Fed Funds Rate at 6% until July when it modestly reduced it to
5.75% as an indication of a willingness to lower rates in order to avoid a
recession.
Today, short-term interest rates are high relative to both inflation and
long-term rates. While we do not anticipate immediate action, we do believe the
odds favor stable to lower rates in the months ahead.
Within the Fund, we are maintaining a maturity at the longer end of our
normal range in our attempt to "lock in" what we believe are attractive rates.
Thus far, we have accomplished this by investing U.S. Treasury notes, bonds,
bills, and overnight repurchase agreements which are fully collateralized by
Treasury obligations. This combination helps to give the Fund a competitive
yield advantage "locking in" longer yields on a portion of the Fund should rates
decline.

COMBINED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 -- ORGANIZATION AND NAME CHANGES
The Evergreen Money Market Funds (the "Funds") are separate series of
open-end management companies registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "Act"). The Evergreen Money Market Funds consist of
Evergreen Money Market Fund ("Money Market"), Evergreen Tax-Exempt Money Market
Fund ("Tax-Exempt") and Evergreen Treasury Money Market Fund ("Treasury"), known
collectively as the Funds. Money Market is the sole series of Evergreen Money
Market Trust, Tax-Exempt is a series of Evergreen Municipal Trust and Treasury
is a series of Evergreen Investment Trust.
Effective July 7, 1995, First Union Treasury Money Market Portfolio changed
its name to Evergreen Treasury Money Market Fund and Evergeen Money Market Trust
changed its name to Evergreen Money Market Fund.
NOTE 2 -- CHANGE IN FISCAL YEARS
On March 15, 1995, its Trustees approved a change in Treasury's fiscal year
from December 31 to August 31. These financial statements are as of and for the
eight months ended August 31, 1995. On September 21, 1994, Money Market's
Trustees approved a change in Money Market's fiscal year from October 31 to
August 31. The financial statements for Money Market and Tax-Exempt are for the
year ended August 31, 1995.
NOTE 3 -- ACQUISITION INFORMATION
Effective July 7, 1995, Money Market acquired substantially all of First
Union Money Market Portfolio's net assets, valued at $1.00 per share through a
non-taxable exchange for 642,283,253 shares of Money Market. The aggregate net
assets of Money Market immediately after the acquisition were $884,502,198.
In addition, effective July 7, 1995, Tax-Exempt acquired substantially all
of First Union Tax-Free Money Market Portfolio's net assets, valued at $1.00 per
share through a non-taxable exchange for 604,175,076 shares of Tax-Exempt. The
aggregate net assets of Tax-Exempt immediately after the acquisition were
$952,382,736.
NOTE 4 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. These policies are
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Portfolio securities are valued at amortized cost
which approximates market value. The amortized cost method involves valuing a
security at cost on the date of purchase and thereafter assuming a straight-line
amortization of any discount or premium to maturity.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS -- Security transactions are accounted for on the
date purchased or sold. Net realized gains or losses are determined on the
identified cost basis.
INVESTMENT INCOME AND EXPENSES -- Interest income and expenses are accrued
daily. Premiums and discounts paid on securities are amortized or accreted into
interest income.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase
agreements are held by the Federal Reserve Bank and are designated as being held
on each Fund's behalf by its custodian under a book-entry system. Each Fund
monitors the adequacy of the collateral on a daily basis, and can require the
seller to provide additional collateral in the event the market value of the
securities pledged falls below the carrying value of the repurchase agreement,
including accrued interest. Each Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements
with banks and other financial institutions which are deemed by the
36

COMBINED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 4 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- continued
investment adviser to be creditworthy pursuant to guidelines established by each
Funds' Trustees. Under certain circumstances, in the event of default or
bankruptcy by the counterparty to the agreement, realization of the collateral
may be subject to legal proceedings.
WHEN ISSUED AND DELAYED DELIVERY TRANSACTIONS -- The Funds record
when-issued or delayed delivery transactions on the trade date and maintain
security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make
payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or
delayed delivery basis begin earning interest on the settlement date.
DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Dividends from net investment income are
declared daily and paid monthly. Dividends from net realized capital gains on
investments, if any, will be distributed at least annually. Income distributions
and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax
regulations which may differ from the amounts available for distribution under
generally accepted accounting principles. To the extent these differences are
permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the components of net
assets. As of August 31, 1995, a reclassification has been made for Treasury to
increase undistributed net investment income by $83,054 and for Tax-Exempt and
Treasury to increase (decrease) accumulated losses on investments by ($124,353)
and $83,054, respectively, with offsetting adjustments made to paid-in-capital.
INCOME TAXES -- It is the Funds' policy to meet the requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute substantially all of its taxable and other net income to its
shareholders. Accordingly, no provisions for Federal income or excise taxes are
necessary. To the extent that realized capital gains can be offset by capital
loss carryforwards, it is the Fund's policy not to distribute such gains.
At August 31, 1995 the Funds had capital loss carryforwards in the
following amounts:

Money Market..................... -- -- $521,065
Tax-Exempt....................... $175,647 -- 15,847
Treasury......................... -- $83,054 --
</TABLE>
Capital losses incurred after October 31 within the Fund's fiscal year are
deemed to arise on the first business day of the following fiscal year for tax
purposes. Tax-Exempt and Treasury have incurred and will elect to defer $58,452
and $7,403, respectively of such capital losses.
DEFERRED EXPENSES -- The costs incurred by Treasury with respect to
registration of its shares in its first fiscal year, excluding the initial
expense of registering the shares, have been deferred and are being amortized
using the straight-line method not to exceed a period of five years from the
Fund's commencement of operations, March 6, 1991.
ALLOCATION OF EXPENSES -- Expenses specifically identifiable to a class of
shares are charged to that class. Expenses common to a Trust as a whole are
allocated to the funds in that Trust. Net investment income (other than class
specific expenses) and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated
daily to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets
of each class.
NOTE 5 -- INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENTS -- First Union National Bank of North
Carolina ("First Union"), is entitled to an annual fee of .35 of 1% of
Treasury's average daily net assets pursuant to Treasury's investment advisory
agreement. For the eight-
37
<PAGE>
COMBINED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 5 -- INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH
AFFILIATES -- continued
month period ended August 31, 1995, First Union voluntarily waived $1,258,611 of
its advisory fee. First Union can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at
any time.
Pursuant to an agreement with Money Market's and Tax-Exempt's investment
adviser, Evergreen Asset Management Corp. (Evergreen Asset), a wholly owned
subsidiary of First Union, Evergreen Asset is entitled to an annual fee based on
Money Market's and Tax-Exempts average daily net assets, for the year ended
August 31, 1995, in accordance with the following schedule:
First $1 billion 0.50%
Over $1 billion 0.45%
Pursuant to this agreement, Evergreen Asset also furnishes Money Market and
Tax-Exempt with administrative services. Evergreen Asset has agreed to reimburse
Money Market and Tax-Exempt to the extent that the Funds' operating expenses
(including the investment advisory fee but excluding interest, taxes, brokerage
commissions, 12b-1 distribution and shareholder services fees and extraordinary
expense) exceeds 1.00% of its average daily net assets for any fiscal year. For
the year ended August 31, 1995, the expenses of Money Market and Tax-Exempt did
not exceed this limit. For the year ended August 31, 1995, Evergreen Asset
voluntarily waived $732,723 and $558,942 of its advisory fee and reimbursed
class specific expenses amounting to $17,362 and $9,089 for Money Market and
Tax-Exempt, respectively. Evergreen Asset can modify or terminate these
voluntary waivers at any time.
Lieber & Company, an affiliate of First Union is the investment sub-adviser
to Money Market and Tax-Exempt. Lieber & Company is reimbursed by the Adviser at
no additional expense to the Funds.
During the year ended August 31, 1995, Tax-Exempt entered into stand-by
purchase agreements ("agreements") with First Union with regards to securities
issued by Orange County, California. The agreements enabled the securities to be
valued at par, which was $300,000 in excess of the securities fair market value
on the date of the issuance. The increase in the value is deemed to be a
voluntary contribution of capital to offset the loss in value. The agreements
were exercised during the year and accordingly, the securities were sold to
First Union at par.
ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENT -- Until July 7, 1995, Federated Investor Services
("FAS") provided Treasury with certain administrative personnel and services
including certain clerical and recordkeeping services. In addition, certain of
the Fund's officers and Trustees were officers or directors of FAS. FAS' fee was
based on the level of average net assets of Treasury's Trust for the period,
subject to a minimum fee. Effective July 7, 1995, Evergreen Asset, became
Treasury's Administrator and Furman Selz, Incorporated ("Furman Selz") became
the sub-administrator. Officers of Furman Selz became officers of all of the
Funds. Evergreen Asset's fee and Furman Selz' fee is based on the average daily
net assets of all the funds administered by Evergreen Asset for which First
Union or Evergreen Asset is also investment adviser. Such fee is calculated at
the following annual rates:

NOTE 5 -- INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH
AFFILIATES -- continued
At August 31, 1995, assets for which Evergreen Asset was the administrator
for which either Evergreen Asset or First Union was investment adviser totaled
approximately $9.8 billion.
PLANS OF DISTRIBUTION -- The Funds have adopted for their Class A shares
and Class B shares (Money Market only) Distribution Plans (the "Plans") pursuant
to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. (See Note 6) Under the terms of the Plans, the
Funds may incur distribution-related and shareholder servicing expenses which
may not exceed .75 of 1% for Class A shares for Money Market and Tax-Exempt and
.35 of 1% for Class A shares for Treasury. The payments for Money Market's Class
B shares may not exceed it. The payments for Class A for each of the Funds were
voluntarily limited to .30 of 1% of average daily net assets. Such fees are
accrued daily and paid monthly.
In connection with their Plans, Money Market and Tax-Exempt have entered
into distribution agreements with Evergreen Funds Distributor, Inc. ("EFD"), a
subsidiary of Furman Selz whereby Money Market and Tax-Exempt will compensate
EFD for its services at a rate which may not exceed .30 of 1% of Class A average
daily net assets and 1% of Class B average daily net assets (Money Market only).
A portion of Money Market's Class B Plan, up to .25 of 1% of average daily net
assets may constitute a shareholder service fee. EFD has entered into a
Shareholder Services Agreement with First Union Brokerage Services ("FUBS"), an
affiliate of First Union, whereby EFD will compensate FUBS for certain services
provided to shareholders and/or maintenance of shareholder accounts relating to
Money Market's Class B shares. At August 31, 1995, $836 remains payable from
Money Market to EFD related to the Shareholder Services Plan.
In connection with its Plan, prior to July 7, 1995, Treasury had entered
into distribution agreements with Federated Securities Corp. ("FSC") whereby
Treasury compensated FSC for its services at a rate which did not exceed .30 of
1% of Class A average daily net assets. Effective July 7, 1995, Treasury entered
into a distribution agreement with EFD whereby Treasury will compensate EFD for
its services at a rate which may not exceed .30 of 1% of Class A average daily
net assets.
NOTE 6 -- SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST
Money Market and Tax-Exempt have an unlimited number of $0.0001 par value
shares of beneficial interest authorized. Treasury has an unlimited number of no
par value shares of beneficial interest authorized. The shares are divided into
classes which are designated Class Y, Class A and Class B shares (Money Market
only). Class Y shares are available only to investment advisory clients of First
Union and its affiliates, certain institutional investors or Class Y
shareholders of record of certain other funds managed by the First Union and its
affiliates as of December 30, 1994. The classes have identical voting, dividend,

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
TO THE TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS OF
EVERGREEN MONEY MARKET FUND AND
EVERGREEN TAX-EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUND
In our opinion, the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities,
including the Statements of Investments, and the related Statements of
Operations and of Changes in Net Assets and the Financial Highlights present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Evergreen Money
Market Fund and Evergreen Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund (one of the Evergreen
Municipal Trust Portfolios), (the "Funds"), at August 31, 1995, the results of
each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in the net assets
of Evergreen Money Market Fund for the year then ended and for the ten-month
period ended August 31, 1994, the changes in the net assets of Evergreen
Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund for each of the two years in the period then ended,
and the financial highlights for the periods indicated, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and
financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Funds' management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which 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, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 1995 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for
the opinion expressed above.
