Item 2.       Management's Discussion and Analysis of

              ---------------------------------------------


      As  of  March  31,  1997,  Participating  Income  Properties  III  Limited
      Partnership,  a  Delaware  limited  partnership,   (the  Registrant),  had
      received  $26,709,000  in gross  proceeds from its offering of Units.  Net
      funds  available  for  investment,  after  payment  of sales  commissions,
      organization  costs and acquisition  fees,  amounted to  $23,012,902.  The
      offering of Units is the  Registrant's  sole source of capital,  and since
      the final  closing of limited  partnership  units was held on February 28,
      1992, the Registrant will not receive  additional funds from the offering.
      The Registrant was fully invested in travel plaza properties and mortgages
      by June 30, 1993 and does not anticipate any further capital expenditures.

      The Registrant  declared a cash  distribution  to the limited  partners of
      $579,427  for the quarter  ended March 31, 1997 (the  period).  During the
      period,  all net proceeds  not  invested in travel plaza  property and the
      mortgage loan were invested in Government  Agency  discount notes and bank
      repurchase  agreements  (which are secured by United  States  Treasury and
      Government obligations).

      During the  period,  the  Registrant  received  base  rental  revenue  and
      mortgage loan interest  income pursuant to its travel plaza lease and loan
      arrangements in the amount of $530,495,  which remains  unchanged from the
      prior year. In addition,  the Registrant received or accrued participating
      rentals  of  $111,733  for the period  which is lower than the  comparable
      quarter in 1996 and is  attributable  to  decreased  overall  travel plaza
      sales.  In June  1996,  a credit  card  issuer  to  Flying J Travel  Plaza
      customers terminated its relationship with the travel plazas. As a result,
      volumes and margins at many Flying J Travel Plaza locations decreased. CFJ
      Properties,  the  lessee of one of the  Registrant's  travel  plazas,  has
      advised the general  partner of the Registrant  that it expects sales will
      stabilize and be restored by mid-1997.  Total expenses of $174,223 for the
      period were lower than  expenses for the quarter  ended March 31, 1996 due
      to lower general partner fees; such fees are calculated  based on revenues
      net of operating expenses.  Net income for the period is comparable to the
      same period in 1996.

      The  decrease in total  assets  reflected  in the  Registrant's  financial
      statements   filed  with  this  Report  is  mainly   attributable  to  the
      depreciation allowance, which is deducted for accounting purposes from the
      cost of the assets on the Registrant's books.

      In the opinion of management,  the financial  information included in this
      report reflects all adjustments necessary for fair presentation.  All such
      adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
