Gentlemen:

         Pursuant  to  paragraph  (j) of Rule  497 and the  requirements  of the
current  EDGAR Filer  Manual and  Regulation  S-T,  we certify  that the form of
prospectus  and statement of additional  information  that would have been filed
under  paragraph (c) of this section would not have differed from that contained
in the most recent  registration  statement  (Post-Effective  Amendment  No. 19)
which was filed electronically February 27, 1998.

         I trust the above is sufficient for your purposes.

                                                              Very truly yours,



                                                              Thomas F. Konop
                                                              Vice President
