Dear Ron:

As we have discussed per Section 2.2, reduction of Commitment
Amounts, we are reducing the Commitment Amount of both Five-Year
and 364-Day credit agreements dated June 17, 1997, to $25,000,000
each.  This reduction will still leave a total of $50,000,000
between the agreements.

Sincerely, 



James E. Garpow
Assistant Treasurer and Assistant Secretary
