REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Trustees of
CUFUND:
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements CUFUND
for the year ended May 31, 1996, we considered its internal control structure,
including procedures for safeguarding securities, in order to determine our
auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the
financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-SAR,
not to provide assurance on the internal control structure.
The management of CUFUND is responsible for establishing and
maintaining an internal control structure. In fulfilling this responsibility,
estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the
expected benefits and related costs of internal control structure policies
and procedures. Two of the objectives of an internal control structure
are to provide management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance
that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition
and that transactions are executed in accordance with management's
authorization and recorded properly to permit preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Because of inherent limitations in any internal control structure, errors
or irregularities may occur and not be detected. Also, projection of any
evaluation of the structure to future periods is subject to the risk that it
may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the
effectiveness of the design and operation may deteriorate.
Our consideration of the internal control structure would not necessarily
disclose all matters in the internal control structure that might be material
weaknesses under standards established by the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants. A material weakness is a condition in
which the design or operation of the specific internal control structure
elements does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that errors or
irregularities in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial
statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely
period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned
functions. However, we noted no matters involving the internal control
structure, including procedures for safeguarding securities, that we consider
to be material weaknesses as defined above as of May 31, 1996.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of management,
the Board of DirectorTrustees and the Securities and Exchange Commission,
and should not be used for any other purpose.
