As Secretary and Agent of the above trust, the undersigned hereby requests, 
pursuant to Rule 477 under the Securities Act of 1933, to withdraw 
Post-Effective Amendment No. 26 to the trust's current effective 
registration statement on Form N-1A, File No. 33-15983.  The submission 
was accepted July 12, 1994, Accession No. 0000028540-94-000014.
