PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
No one wants to pay more taxes than they have to. But a recent survey of
500 U.S. households, conducted by Fidelity and Yankelovich Partners, showed
that few people took steps to reduce their taxes under the new tax laws
that went into effect last year. In fact, many people were not completely
aware of the changes until they filed their 1993 tax returns.
Whether or not you're someone whose tax bill increased as a result of these
changes, it may make sense to consider ways to keep more of what you earn.
First, if your employer offers a 401(k) or 403(b) retirement savings plan,
consider enrolling. These plans are set up so you can make regular
contributions -
before taxes - to a retirement savings plan. They offer a disciplined
savings strategy, the ability to accumulate earnings tax-deferred, and
immediate tax savings. For example, if you earn $40,000 a year and
contribute 7% of your salary to your 401(k) plan, your annual contribution
is $2,800. That reduces your taxable income to $37,200 and, if you're in
the
28% tax bracket, saves you $784 in federal taxes. In addition, you pay no
taxes on any earnings until withdrawal.
It may be a good idea to contact your benefits office as soon as possible
to find out when you can enroll or increase your contribution. Most
employers allow employees to make changes only a few times each year.
Second, consider an IRA. Many people are eligible to make an IRA
contribution (up to $2,000) that is fully tax deductible. That includes
people who are not covered by company pension plans, or those within
certain income brackets. Even if you don't qualify for a fully deductible
contribution, any IRA earnings will grow tax-deferred until withdrawal.
Third, consider tax-free investments like municipal bonds and municipal
bond funds. Often these can provide higher after-tax yields than comparable
taxable investments. For example, if you're in the new 36% federal income
tax bracket and invest $10,000 in a taxable investment yielding 7%, you'll
pay $252 in federal taxes and receive $448 in income. That same $10,000
invested in a tax-free bond fund yielding 5.5% would allow you to keep $550
in income.
These are three investment strategies that could help lower your tax bill
in 1994. If you're interested in learning more, please call us at
1-800-544-8888 or visit a Fidelity Investor Center. We look forward to
talking with you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d, Chairman
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
To measure a money market fund's performance, you can look at either total
return or yield. Total return reflects the change in a fund's share price
over a given period, as well as reinvestment of its dividends (or income).
Yield measures the income paid by a fund. Since a money market fund tries
to maintain a $1 share price, yield is an important measure of performance.

Fidelity Daily Income Trust 1.40% 2.77% 31.21% 88.54%

Average All Taxable
Money Market Fund 1.34% 2.69% 30.56% 86.72%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS reflect actual performance over a set period - in
this case, six months, one, five, or 10 years. For example, if you invested
$1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, you would end up
with $1,050. Comparing the fund's performance to the consumer price index
(CPI) helps show how your investment did compared to inflation. To measure
how the fund stacked up against its peers, you can compare its return to
the average taxable money market fund's total returns. This average
currently reflects the performance of 644 taxable money market funds
tracked by IBC/Donoghue. (The periods covered by the IBC/Donoghue numbers
are the closest available match to those covered by the fund.)

YIELD refers to the income paid by the fund over a given period. Yields for
money market funds are usually for seven-day periods, expressed as annual
percentage rates. A yield that assumes income earned is reinvested or
compounded is called an effective yield. The chart above shows the fund's
current seven-day yield at quarterly intervals over the past year. You can
compare these yields to those of the average taxable money market fund and
the average bank money market deposit account (MMDA). The MMDA average is
supplied by BANK RATE MONITOR.(double dagger) (Both figures are those
available closest to month end.)
A MONEY MARKET FUND'S TOTAL RETURNS AND YIELDS REFLECT PAST RESULTS RATHER
THAN PREDICT FUTURE PERFORMANCE.
COMPARING
PERFORMANCE
There are some important
differences between a bank
money market deposit
account (MMDA) and a
money market fund. First, the
U.S. government neither
insures nor guarantees a
money market fund. In fact,
there is no assurance that a
money market fund will
maintain a $1 share price.
Second, a money market
fund returns to its
shareholders income earned
by the fund's investments
after expenses. This is in
contrast to banks, which set
their MMDA rates periodically
based on current interest
rates, competitors' rates, and
internal criteria.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Burnell Stehman,
Portfolio Manager of
Fidelity Daily Income Trust
Q. BURNIE, WHAT HAS THE SHORT-TERM INTEREST RATE ENVIRONMENT BEEN LIKE OVER
THE PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. From the end of August through mid-November, short-term rates were
stable. The Federal Reserve was comfortable keeping the federal funds rate
at 3%, where it had been since September 1992. Rates moved slightly higher
during November due to increasing worries about the threat of inflation.
The economy was showing signs of strength through reports of robust
activity in housing, manufacturing, and auto sales. As a result, rates
continued to trade within a narrow range through year-end and into January.
Then, surprisingly, the Fed raised the fed funds rate to 3.25% on February
4. It was the first time the Fed had raised short-term interest rates in
five years.
Q. GIVEN THOSE CONDITIONS, HOW DID YOU POSITION THE FUND?
A. I kept the fund's average maturity in the 70-day range through October.
I did that by locking in higher-yielding issues while rates were still
stable or falling. By November, it became clear that the Fed would not be
reducing rates further, which caused me to position the fund in a more
defensive manner. I shortened the average maturity to 55 days by the end of
December. However, heading into January the economic numbers didn't reflect
a tangible inflation threat. As markets rallied, I, like many others,
thought the Fed would wait until later in the first quarter to raise rates.
As a result, I moved the average maturity out to 64 days by the end of
January in order to maintain the highest return to the fund. In hindsight,
that was a mistake. After the Fed's tightening, I sold or swapped many of
the government securities I had recently purchased in favor of
shorter-maturity, higher yielding issues. I rolled back the average
maturity to 40 days by the end of February, which positioned the fund to
benefit from the higher rate environment.
Q. SO HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
A. Despite February's rate hike, the fund's seven-day yield was 2.75% on
February 28, 1994. That's down slightly from six months ago, when the yield
was 2.85%. The fund's total return for the 12 months ended February 28 was
2.77%. That beat the 2.69% average total return for all taxable money
market funds tracked by IBC/Donoghue.
Q. HOW DO YOU SEE THE NEXT SIX MONTHS SHAPING UP?
A. I think short-term rates will continue to be volatile in the near term.
Investors are skittish about the possibility of further rate hikes, which I
think are inevitable. In the meantime, I plan to keep the fund's average
maturity on the short side, probably in the 35- to 40-day range. That will
allow me to purchase some of the higher-yielding issues that become
available, while keeping the fund defensively positioned should rates
indeed rise. I also had a 15% stake in variable and floating rate
instruments at the end of February, a level I plan to keep or increase.
These securities have relatively high yields related to the way they're
structured. But what makes them unique is a feature that resets their
coupons (stated interest rates) at fixed intervals. When rates are rising,
the fund can obtain a higher coupon on these issues at their reset
intervals.

WORDS TO KNOW
BANKERS' ACCEPTANCE (BA):
A short-term note whose
payment is guaranteed by a
bank.
CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT (CD):
An interest-bearing deposit
with a specific maturity. Large
denomination CDs, like the
fund buys, have negotiable
interest rates and can be sold
in the secondary market.
COMMERCIAL PAPER: A
short-term note from a bank
or corporation.
FEDERAL FUNDS RATE: The
interest rate banks charge
each other for overnight
loans.
MATURITY: The time remaining
before an issuer is scheduled
to repay the principal amount
on a debt security. When the
fund's average maturity -
weighted by dollar amount -
is short, the fund manager
believes interest rates will
rise. When the average
maturity is long, the fund
manager is expecting rates to
fall. When the average
maturity is neutral, the fund
manager wants to have the
flexibility to respond to rising
rates, while still capturing a
portion of the higher yields
available from issues with
longer maturities.
TIME DEPOSIT (TD): An
interest-bearing deposit with a
specific maturity. Large
denomination TDs, like the
fund buys, differ from CDs in
that they can't be sold in the
secondary market.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended February 28, 1994 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES.
Fidelity Daily Income Trust (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Union Street
Trust II (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of
shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company
organized as a Delaware trust. The following summarizes the significant
accounting policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, and
certain conditions therein, securities are valued initially at cost and
thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or
premium.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes all of its taxable income for its fiscal
year. The schedule of investments includes information regarding income
taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INTEREST INCOME. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium
and accretion of original issue discount, is accrued as earned.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends are declared daily and paid
monthly from net interest income.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The fund, through its custodian, receives delivery
of the underlying securities, whose market value is required to be at least
102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. The fund's investment
adviser, Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), is responsible
for determining that the value of these underlying securities remains at
least equal to the resale price.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other registered
investment companies having management contracts with FMR, may transfer
uninvested cash balances into a joint trading account. These balances are
invested in one or more repurchase agreements that are collateralized by
U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency obligations.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The fund is permitted to invest in privately placed
restricted securities. These securities may be resold in transactions
exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered.
Disposal of these securities may involve time- consuming negotiations and
expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. At the
end of the period, restricted securities (excluding 144A issues) amounted
to $85,000,000 or 4%
of net assets for the fund.
3. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a fee
computed daily and paid monthly, based on the level of the fund's average
net assets and gross income earned each month. The portion of the fee based
on average net assets is graduated ranging from an annual rate of .10% of
average net assets up to $2 billion to an annual rate of .05% of average
net assets in excess of $6 billion. The portion of the fee based on gross
income is equal to 4% of the gross income earned by the fund each month
(exclusive of gains realized from the sale of investments) provided the
amount of such fee, at a minimum, amounts to an annual rate of .20% and, at
a maximum, does not exceed an annual rate of .40% of the fund's average net
assets. For the period, the management fee was equivalent to an annualized
rate of .30% of average net assets.
SUB-ADVISER FEE. As the fund's investment sub-adviser, FMR Texas Inc., a
wholly owned subsidiary of FMR, receives a fee from FMR of 50% of the
management fee payable to FMR. The fee is paid prior to any voluntary
expense reimbursements which may be in effect, and after reducing the fee
for any payments by FMR pursuant to the fund's Distribution and Service
Plan.
TRANSFER AGENT FEE. Fidelity Service Co. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is the
fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent. FSC
receives fees based on the type, size, number of accounts and the number of
transactions made by shareholders. FSC pays for typesetting, printing and
mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements.
ACCOUNTING FEE. FSC maintains the fund's accounting records. The fee is
based on the level of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket
expenses.
Shareholders participating in the Fidelity Ultra Service Account(Registered
trademark) Program (the Program) pay a $5.00 monthly fee to Fidelity
Brokerage Services, Inc. (FBSI), an affiliate of FMR, for performing
services associated with the Program. For the period, fees paid to FBSI by
shareholders participating in the Program amounted to $861,867.
