Dear Shareholder:

It's  a  pleasure  to  bring  you  the  fifth  annual  report  of  the  Franklin
International  Trust,  which covers the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995.  The
Trust  consists  of the  Franklin  International  Equity  Fund and the  Franklin
Pacific Growth Fund.  Effective  February 1, 1996,  the Franklin  Pacific Growth
Fund will  change  its name to the  Templeton  Pacific  Growth  Fund.  Templeton
Investment  Counsel,   Inc.,  noted  for  its  expertise  in  global  investing,
co-manages both funds.

During the reporting period,  fluctuations in international  securities markets,
particularly in emerging market countries,  served as a reminder that volatility
is a normal part of investing.  However,  we have always  maintained a long-term
perspective when managing the funds, and we encourage shareholders to view their
investments in a similar  manner.  Although past  performance  cannot  guarantee
future results,  history has proven that,  over the long term,  stocks and bonds
have delivered impressive financial results. If you remain invested for the long
term, you need not be unduly concerned about short-term market fluctuations.

For specific  information about the Franklin  International  Equity Fund and the
Franklin  Pacific  Growth Fund,  including the effects of market  conditions and
management strategies upon their performance during the past fiscal year, please
refer to the pages listed in the table of contents on the preceding page.

We thank you for your  support,  welcome  your  questions,  and look  forward to
serving your investment needs in the years to come.

Sincerely,


Rupert H. Johnson, Jr.
President
Franklin International Trust



FRANKLIN PACIFIC GROWTH FUND

Your Fund's Objective:

The Franklin Pacific Growth Fund seeks to provide long-term growth of capital by
investing  in equity  securities  of which at least 65% trade on  markets in the
Pacific Rim.

The fiscal year ended October 31, 1995 was a  challenging  time for investors in
Pacific  Rim equity  markets.  Many stock  markets  in this  region  experienced
extreme  volatility  throughout  the year due to a myriad of problems.  Negative
effects from Mexico's December 1994 currency devaluation spilled over into other
emerging markets, including those in Southeast Asia, in what many referred to as
the "Tequila Effect." Japan continued to suffer from a deteriorating real estate
market  and a weak  banking  system,  while  Hong Kong  struggled  with  runaway
economic growth,  high inflation  levels,  and uncertainty  surrounding its 1997
reversion to China.

Within this difficult  environment,  your fund posted a one-year total return of
- -5.54%,  as  shown  in the  Performance  Summary  on page 7.  However,  the fund
significantly  outperformed its benchmark,  the unmanaged Morgan Stanley Capital
International  (MSCI)  Pacific  Basin Index,  which  delivered a total return of
- -11.00%  for  the  same   period.   Although   short-term   volatility   can  be
disconcerting,  we have always maintained a long-term  perspective when managing
the fund and  encourage  shareholders  to view  their  investments  in a similar
manner.  As you can see from the Performance  Summary,  the fund has delivered a
cumulative  total return of more than 56% since its  inception on September  20,
1991.

At the  end of the  reporting  period,  Hong  Kong  was our  largest  geographic
exposure,  representing 26.9% of total net assets.  Pessimism  regarding company
earnings  and the events  surrounding  Hong Kong's  upcoming  reversion to China
reached a high point in the first  quarter  of 1995,  and we took  advantage  of
resulting  market  declines  by adding to several of the fund's  positions.  For
example,  we increased  our holdings of New World  Development  Co. Ltd., a Hong
Kong-based real estate company,  and purchased  shares of Cathay Pacific Airways
Ltd.,  whose stock price  suffered  from  investor  concerns  that the airline's
monopolistic  position  would be in jeopardy when China assumes  control of Hong
Kong.

Compared  with our  exposure  to Hong Kong,  the fund's  weighting  in Japan was
conservative,  representing  20.3% of total net  assets at the end of the fiscal
year.  This  contrasted  sharply with the MSCI Pacific  Basin  Index's  Japanese
weighting of 80.2%.  We maintained  this relatively low exposure to Japan due to
growing concerns surrounding its banking system, which was plagued by a mountain
of bad debts throughout the year.




GRAPHIC MATERIAL 1 OMMITTED - SEE APPENDIX AT END OF DOCUMENT


Many experts in the banking industry  estimate these debts at $450 billion,  but
we believe  they far exceed this  amount.  Fortunately,  your fund had no direct
investments  in Japanese  banks  during the fiscal year.  Taking  advantage of a
rising yen, we sold  portions of our  positions in Nippon  Telegraph & Telephone
Corp. and Mitsubishi  Heavy  Industrial Co. in March. In August,  we trimmed our
holdings of Nintendo Co.  following  solid  performance by this stock.  Although
Japanese  stock  valuations  are  characteristically  expensive,  we  intend  to
continue our search for value there.

Over the course of the fiscal year, we decreased our Australian  exposure,  from
14.7% to 11.4% of total net  assets.  Taking  advantage  of  rising  commodities
prices, we sold the fund's largest Australian position, Western Mining Corp., as
metals prices appeared to reach their peak. A large position in BTR Nylex,  Ltd.
was  eliminated  from  the  portfolio  when  the  company  was  acquired  by its
controlling U.K. parent corporation, BTR PLC.

Inflationary pressures continued to be a problem in the Philippines,  as delayed
exports and  unfavorable  growing  conditions  caused prices for rice to soar by
50-60% during the year. These pressures do not alarm us, however,  and we remain
optimistic  about the long-term  prospects for this country.  Our exposure there
increased slightly,  from 3.9% to 5.0% of total net assets, with the addition of
a position in Filinvest Land, Inc., a Philippine-based real estate company.

During the reporting period, we also initiated  positions in India and Pakistan.
As India's  economic  growth  slowed  following  rapid  growth in 1994,  we took
advantage  of a sharp  sell-off  in this  market and  purchased  shares of Great
Eastern Shipping Co. Ltd. at what we felt was a bargain price. Although Pakistan
has lagged  other  countries  in the Pacific Rim due to its fiscal  distress and
weak  agricultural  output, we found value in positions such as Fauji Fertilizer
Co. Ltd. and Pakistan Telecom Corp.

Looking  forward,  we are  optimistic  about the potential  prospects for equity
markets in the Pacific Rim. Although these markets  experienced  volatility this
past fiscal year, we are confident that our value-oriented  investment  approach
could provide our shareholders with attractive results over the long term. There
are,  of course,  special  risks  involved  with  investing  in a  portfolio  of
securities  concentrated  in a single  geographic  region,  which also  contains
developing   markets.   These  risks  include  currency   fluctuations,   market
volatility,  economic, social, and political uncertainty,  and in some cases the
relatively  small  size and  lesser  liquidity  of these  markets.  For  further
information concerning these risks, please refer to the fund's prospectus.

We appreciate your  participation  in the Franklin  Pacific Growth Fund and look
forward to serving your investment needs in the years to come.

Performance Summary

The  Franklin  Pacific  Growth  Fund  provided a total  return of -5.54% for the
one-year  period  ended  October 31, 1995.  Total return  measures the change in
value of an investment,  assum- ing reinvestment of dividends and capital gains,
and does not include the fund's maximum initial sales charge.

Of course,  we maintain a long-term  perspective  when managing the fund, and we
encourage shareholders to view their investments in a similar manner. As you can
see from the table on page 8, the fund  delivered a  cumulative  total return of
more than 56% since its inception on September 20, 1991.

The fund's share price, as measured by net asset value, decreased from $15.40 on
October 31, 1994 to $14.11 on October 31,  1995.  During the  reporting  period,
shareholders  received  distributions  totaling 15.6 cents ($0.156) per share in
dividend  income and 27.1 cents  ($0.271) per share in capital  gains,  of which
11.41 cents  ($0.1141)  represented  long-term  gains and 15.69 cents  ($0.1569)
represented  short-term gains. Of course,  past performance is not predictive of
future results,  and  distributions  will vary depending on income earned by the
fund and any profits realized from the sale of securities in the portfolio.

The graph on the following page compares the performance of the Franklin Pacific
Growth  Fund  with the  performance  of the  unmanaged  Morgan  Stanley  Capital
International  (MSCI) Pacific Basin Index from the fund's inception on September
20, 1991. As you can see, the fund outperformed the index during the past fiscal
year.

Of course, such unmanaged market indices have inherent performance differentials
in comparison with any fund.  They don't pay management fees to cover salaries
of security analysts or portfolio managers, or pay commissions or market spreads
to buy and sell stocks.  And, unlike unmanaged  indices,  mutual funds are never
100%  invested  because  of the need to have cash on hand to redeem  shares.  In
addition,  the performance shown for the fund includes the maximum initial sales
charge,  all fund expenses and account  fees. If operating  expenses such as the
Franklin  Pacific Growth Fund's had been applied to this index,  its performance
would  have been  lower.  Please  remember  that an index is simply a measure of
performance, and one cannot invest in an index directly. Past performance is not
predictive of future results.


*Includes all sales charges and  represents the change in value of an investment
over the period  shown.  Total return  assumes  reinvestment  of  dividends  and
capital gains. Past performance is not predictive of future results.

the  periods  indicated  and does not include the  maximum  4.5%  initial  sales
charge.

2. Average annual total return  represents the average annual change in value of
an investment  over the specified  periods and includes the maximum 4.5% initial
sales charge.

All total return  calculations  assume  reinvestment  of  dividends  and capital
gains. Past expense limitations  increased the fund's total returns.  Investment
return and principal value will fluctuate with market conditions, currencies and
the economic and political  climates of countries where investments are made, so
that your shares,  when  redeemed,  may be worth more or less than their initial
cost. Past performance is not predictive of future results.



FRANKLIN INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND

Your Fund's Objective:

The  Franklin  International  Equity Fund seeks to provide  long-term  growth of
capital by  investing  in an  internationally  diversified  portfolio  of equity
securities,  of which at least 65% trade on markets in countries  other than the
United States.

The past  fiscal  year was  marked by a high  level of  volatility  in  emerging
markets and  unexpected  advances in developed  markets.  Stock  markets of most
developed  countries  posted  double-digit  returns  despite  the high degree of
uncertainty prevalent in many overseas markets at the beginning of 1995. Much of
this  uncertainty  was  precipitated  by the  devaluation of the Mexican peso in
December 1994, which led to a decline of more than 70% (in U.S. dollar terms) in
the Mexican equity market.  The ensuing  negative  impact on financial  markets,
which some  called  the  "Tequila  Effect,"  was not  limited to Latin  America.
Investors in Asian  securities  soon discovered that their stocks were declining
in value due to  professional  money  managers'  generally poor opinions of most
emerging  markets.   With  the  exception  of  Japan,   which  suffered  from  a
deteriorating  real  estate  market and a weakened  banking  system,  most major
developed markets, particularly those in Sweden, the Netherlands, and the United
Kingdom, showed surprising strength.

Responding  to these  conditions,  we reduced our holdings in certain  developed
markets, such as the United Kingdom and France, and bought securities elsewhere,
which we felt were better bargains.  At the end of the fiscal year, 82.3% of the
fund's total net assets were invested in developed countries, with the remaining
17.7% in developing countries.

With regard to individual  investment  sectors,  cyclical stocks  performed very
well throughout the reporting period because of economic growth worldwide.  This
was especially  true of the paper,  chemicals and metals  sectors,  although the
financial services, technology, and commodities sectors also performed strongly.
Increasing  economic  activity and growing  demand for  commodities  in emerging
markets led to rising  prices for aluminum and paper,  which gave a big boost to
the stock prices of companies operating in those industries. The fund's position
in Comalco Ltd., an Australian mining company, benefited from this trend. Stocks
in other sectors that  performed well during the period  included  Pharmacia AB,
Hafslund Nycomed, and British Aerospace.

The fiscal year, however, was not without some disappointments. Every year, some
of our stock picks do not live up to our  expectations.  This is normally due to
some  unanticipated  events at these  companies,  a major change in the industry
that adversely impacts them, or  less-than-perfect  stock selection on our part.
Examples of stocks that did not perform as well as we had hoped include  Celsius
Industrier  AB,   Electrolux  AB,  Oriental  Press  Group  Ltd.,  and  Peregrine
Investments  Holdings Ltd.  Although these stocks  declined in price, we did not
sell them because we believed they had  attractive  potential  long-term  value.
Although we do make some mistakes in our stock selections,  if we keep them to a
minimum, we should be able to achieve the type of returns investors have come to
expect.




GRAPHIC MATERIAL 3 OMMITTED - SEE APPENDIX AT END OF DOCUMENT


Looking forward, the world's financial markets should, hopefully, continue to be
volatile.  We say  "hopefully,"  because the more volatile the market,  the more
share prices tend to fluctuate. The more share prices fluctuate, the less likely
the market will reflect the "true" value of a company, and the easier it becomes
for us to find potential bargain-priced stocks for your fund. Many investors are
frightened  by  volatility,  but as  managers,  we welcome  the  opportunity  it
provides us. While short-term  volatility can be  disconcerting,  declines of as
much as 40% to 50% are not unusual in emerging  markets.  For example,  the Hong
Kong stock market has increased 695% in the last 15 years,  but has suffered six
declines of more than 20% during that time.* There are, of course, special risks
involved  with  foreign  investing  related  to  market,   currency,   economic,
political, and other factors.  Developing markets involve similar but heightened
risks, in addition to risks associated with the relatively small size and lesser
liquidity of these markets, which are discussed in the fund's prospectus.

We thank you for your  participation in the Franklin  International  Equity Fund
and welcome any comments or suggestions you may have.

Performance Summary

The Franklin International Equity Fund provided a total return of +1.75% for the
one-year  period  ended  October 31, 1995.  Total return  measures the change in
value of an investment,  assum ing  reinvestment of dividends and capital gains,
and does not include the fund's maximum initial sales charge.

Of course,  we maintain a long-term  perspective  when managing the fund, and we
encourage shareholders to view their investments in a similar manner. As you can
see from the table on page 13, the fund  delivered a cumulative  total return of
more than 51% since its inception on September 20, 1991.

The fund's share price, as measured by net asset value, decreased from $13.83 on
October 31, 1994 to $13.23 on October 31,  1995.  During the  reporting  period,
shareholders  received  distributions  totaling  19 cents  ($0.19)  per share in
dividend  income and 58.8 cents ($0.588) per share in capital gains, of which 34
cents ($0.34)  represented  long-term gains and 24.8 cents ($0.248)  represented
short-term  gains.  Of course,  past  performance  is not  predictive  of future
results,  and distributions will vary depending on income earned by the fund and
any profits realized from the sale of securities in the portfolio.

The  graph on the  following  page  compares  the  performance  of the  Franklin
International  Equity Fund with the performance of the unmanaged  Morgan Stanley
Capital International Europe,  Australia, Far East (EAFE) Index since the fund's
inception on September 20, 1991. As you can see, the fund outperformed the index
toward the end of the fiscal  year,  as it has done for the majority of the time
since the fund's inception.

Of course, such unmanaged market indices have inherent performance differentials
in comparison with any fund. They don't pay management fees to cover salaries of
security analysts or portfolio managers, or pay commissions or market spreads to

FRANKLIN INTERNATIONAL TRUST

Schedule of Foreign Tax Withholding (unaudited)

At October  31,  1995,  the two Funds in the  Franklin  Institutional  Trust had
invested more than 50% of their respective total assets in securities of foreign
corporations.  In many cases, foreign taxes were withheld from dividends paid to
the funds on  investments.  Section 853 of the Internal  Revenue Code (the Code)
permits  the Funds to pass  through to their  shareholders  a tax benefit on the
withholding of these foreign taxes.

The amounts of foreign tax withheld and foreign source income  designated  below
are estimates,  and should be used for planning purposes only. The actual amount
of taxes withheld and foreign  source income  distributed  during  calendar year
1995 will be provided to shareholders with their Form 1099-DIV in January 1996.

FRANKLIN INTERNATIONAL TRUST

Notes to Financial Statements

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Franklin  International Trust (the Trust) is an open-end  management  investment
company (mutual fund)  registered  under the Investment  Company Act of 1940, as
amended.  The Trust  currently  has two separate  diversified  Funds (the Funds)
consisting  of the  Franklin  Pacific  Growth  Fund (the  Pacific  Fund) and the
Franklin  International  Equity Fund (the International Fund). Each of the Funds
issues a separate series of shares and maintains a totally  separate  investment
portfolio.

The  following  is a summary of  significant  accounting  policies  consistently
followed by the Funds in the  preparation  of their  financial  statements.  The
policies are in conformity  with generally  accepted  accounting  principles for
investment companies.

a. Securities Valuations:

Portfolio  securities listed on a securities  exchange or on the NASDAQ National
Market System for which market  quotations  are readily  available are valued at
the last  quoted  sale price of the day or, if there is no such  reported  sale,
within the range of the most recent quoted bid and ask prices.  Over the counter
portfolio  securities  for which market  quotations  are readily  available  are
valued within the range of the most recent bid and asked prices as obtained from
one or more dealers that make markets in the  securities.  Portfolio  securities
which  are  traded  both  in the  over-the-counter  market  and on a  securities
exchange are valued according to the broadest and most representative  market as
determined by Franklin Advisers,  Inc.  ("Manager").  Other securities for which
market  quotations  are readily  available are valued at current  market values,
obtained  from  pricing  services,  which  are based on a  variety  of  factors,
including  recent  trades,  institutional  size  trading  in  similar  types  of
securities (considering yield, risk and maturity) and/or developments related to
specific  securities.  Other  securities  for which  market  quotations  are not
available,  if any, are valued in accordance with procedures  established by the
Board of Trustees.

The value of a foreign  security is determined as of the close of trading on the
foreign  exchange on which it is traded or as of the close of trading on the New
York Stock Exchange,  if that is earlier,  and that value is then converted into
its U.S. dollar  equivalent at the foreign  exchange rate in effect at noon, New
York time,  on the day the value of the foreign  security is  determined.  If no
sale is reported at that time,  the mean between the current bid and asked price
is used. Occasionally,  events which affect the values of foreign securities and
foreign  exchange rates may occur between the times at which they are determined
and the close of the  exchange  and will,  therefore,  not be  reflected  in the
computation  of the Fund's net asset  value,  unless  material.  If events which
materially  affect  the value of these  foreign  securities  occur  during  such
period,  then these  securities  will be valued in  accordance  with  procedures
established by the Board of Trustees.

b. Income Taxes:

The Trust  intends to continue to qualify for the tax  treatment  applicable  to
regulated  investment  companies under the Internal Revenue Code and to make the
requisite  distributions to its shareholders which will be sufficient to relieve
it from income and excise taxes. Therefore, no income tax provision is required.
Each Fund is treated as a separate  entity in the  determination  of  compliance
with the Internal Revenue Code.

c. Security Transactions:

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased
or sold (trade date).  Realized  gains and losses on security  transactions  are
determined on the basis of specific  identification for both financial statement
and income tax purposes.



1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

d. Investment Income, Expenses and Distributions:

Dividend  income  and   distributions   to  shareholders  are  recorded  on  the
ex-dividend date. Interest income and estimated expenses are accrued daily. Bond
discount, if any, is amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code.

Net investment income differs for financial statement and tax purposes primarily
due to differing treatments of foreign currency transactions.

e. Expense Allocation:

Common expenses incurred by the Trust are allocated among the Funds based on the
ratio of net  assets  of each  Fund to the  combined  net  assets.  In all other
respects,  expenses  are  charged  to  each  Fund  as  incurred  on  a  specific
identification basis.

f. Foreign Currency Translation:

The accounting  records of the Trust are maintained in U.S. dollars.  All assets
and  liabilities  denominated in foreign  currencies  are  translated  into U.S.
dollars at the rate of exchange of such currencies  against U.S.  dollars on the
date of the valuation.  Purchases and sales of  securities,  income and expenses
are translated at the rate of exchange  quoted on the respective  date that such
transactions  are  recorded.  Differences  between  income and  expense  amounts
recorded and  collected or paid are  recognized  when  reported by the custodian
bank.

The Trust does not isolate that portion of the results of  operations  resulting
from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations  arising
from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included
with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Reported  net  realized  foreign  exchange  gains or losses arise from sales and
maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, currency gains
or losses  realized  between the trade date and  settlement  dates on securities
transactions,  the difference  between the amounts of dividends,  interest,  and
foreign  withholding  taxes recorded on the Trust's books,  and the U.S.  dollar
equivalent of the amounts  actually  received or paid.  Net  unrealized  foreign
exchange  gains and  losses  arise  from  changes  in the  value of  assets  and
liabilities  other than  investments  in  securities  at the end of the  period,
resulting from changes in exchange rates.

g. Forward Foreign Currency Contracts:

A forward  currency  contract,  which is  individually  negotiated and privately
traded by currency traders and their  customers,  is a commitment to purchase or
sell a specific currency for an agreed upon price at a future date.

The Trust may enter into forward  contracts with the objective of minimizing the
risk of the Trust from adverse changes in the relationship between currencies or
to enhance  Fund  value.  The Trust may also enter  into a forward  contract  in
relation to a security  denominated in a foreign currency or when it anticipates
receipt in a foreign  currency of  dividends  or  interest  payments in order to
"lock in" the U.S. dollar price of a security or the U.S.  dollar  equivalent of
such dividend or interest payments.

The Trust segregates  sufficient  cash, cash  equivalents or readily  marketable
debt securities as collateral for commitments created by open forward contracts.
The Trust could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the contracts are unable
to meet the terms of their  contracts  or if the value of the  foreign  currency
changes unfavorably.

Any gain or loss  realized  from a forward  currency  contract  is recorded as a
realized gain or loss from  investments.  At October 31, 1995,  the Trust had no
outstanding foreign currency forward contracts.



1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

h. Repurchase Agreements:

The Trust may enter into a Joint  Repurchase  Agreements  whereby its uninvested
cash  balances are  deposited  into a joint cash account to be used to invest in
one or more repurchase  agreements with government securities dealers recognized
by the Federal  Reserve Board and/or member banks of the Federal Reserve System.
The value and face amount of the Joint  Repurchase  Agreement has been allocated
to the Funds based on their pro rata interest.

In a repurchase agreement, the Trust purchases a U.S. Government security from a
dealer or bank subject to an  agreement  to resell it at a mutually  agreed upon
price and date.  Such a  transaction  is accounted for as a loan by the Trust to
the seller,  collaterized by the underlying  security.  The transaction requires
the  initial  collaterization  of the  seller's  obligation  by U.S.  government
securities with market value,  including accrued  interest,  of at least 102% of
the  dollar  amount  invested  by the  Trust,  with the value of the  underlying
security  marked to market  daily to maintain  coverage  of at least  100%.  The
collateral  is delivered to the Trust's  custodian  and held until resold to the
dealer or bank. At October 31, 1995, all outstanding joint repurchase agreements
held by the Trust had been entered into on that date.



2. UNAMORTIZED ORGANIZATION COSTS

The organization costs of each Fund are amortized on a straight-line  basis over
a period  of five  years  from  September  20,  1991 (the  effective  day of the
registration under the Securities Act of 1933). In the event Franklin Resources,
Inc.  (which was the sole  shareholder  prior to September 20, 1991) redeems its
shares within the five year period,  the pro-rata share of the then  unamortized
deferred  organization  costs will be deducted from the redemption price paid to
Franklin Resources, Inc.

New investors  purchasing  shares of the Funds subsequent to that date bear such
costs  during the  amortization  period only as such  charges are accrued  daily
against investment income.

   FRANKLIN INTERNATIONAL TRUST

Report of Independent Accountants

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees
of Franklin International Trust:

We have audited the  accompanying  statements of assets and  liabilities  of the
funds  comprising  the  Franklin  International  Trust,  including  each  Fund's
statement of  investments  in securities  and net assets as of October 31, 1995,
and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements
of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and
the financial  highlights for the periods  indicated  thereon.  These  financial
statements  and  financial  highlights  are the  responsibility  of the  Trust's
management.  Our  responsibility  is to express  an  opinion on these  financial
statements and financial highlights 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  and  financial
highlights are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis,  evidence  supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial
statements.  Our  procedures  included  confirmation  of securities  owned as of
October 31, 1995, by  correspondence  with the  custodian and brokers.  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 and financial  highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material  respects,  the financial  position of the
funds  comprising the Franklin  International  Trust as of October 31, 1995, the
results of their  operations  for the year then ended,  the changes in their net
assets for each of the two years in the period  then  ended,  and the  financial
highlights  for the periods  indicated  thereon,  in conformity  with  generally
accepted accounting principles.
