RE: Rule 24f-2 Notice for Torchmark Government Securities Fund, Inc.
File Nos. 33-49121 and 811-7053/CIK #892249
Dear Sir or Madam:
1. This Notice is being filed for the fiscal period ended June 29, 1995;
2. At the beginning of such fiscal period the issuer had no securities
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, other than pursuant to this
section;
3. During such fiscal period the issuer registered no securities other than
pursuant to this section;
4. The issuer sold 450 shares during such fiscal period*; and
5. The 450 shares were sold during such fiscal period in reliance upon
registration pursuant to this section.
This Notice is accompanied by an opinion of counsel as prescribed by paragraph
(b)(1)(v) of Rule 24f-2. An additional filing fee as prescribed by paragraph
(c) of said Rule is not enclosed since during such fiscal year net redemptions
exceeded sales.
Very truly yours,
Sharon K. Pappas
Secretary
*During such fiscal period ended June 29, 1995, the issuer sold 450 shares in
reliance upon registration pursuant to Rule 24f-2 at an actual aggregate sale
price of $4,030 and redeemed 153,702 shares at an aggregate repurchase price
of $1,487,648. None of such redeemed shares were previously applied by the
issuer pursuant to Section 24e-2(a) in filings made pursuant to Section
24(e)(1) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Since the shares redeemed
during the issuer's fiscal period exceeded shares sold, a filing fee as
prescribed in Section 6(b) of the Securities Act of 1933 is not required.
