Re: First American Funds, Inc. Post-Effective Amendment Number 50 to Registration Statement SEC File Nos. 2-74747 and 811-03313

Dear Ms. Browning:

On October 15, 2004, First American Funds, Inc. (the "Fund") filed post-effective amendment number 50 to its registration statement for the purpose of adding the U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund as a series of the Fund. Accompanying that filing was an acceleration request from the Fund and Quasar Distributors, LLC, the principal distributor of the Fund's shares, requesting acceleration of such filing to October 25, 2004 or as soon thereafter as possible. In connection with such acceleration request, we hereby acknowledge the following on behalf of the Fund:

1. Should the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing.

2. The action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Fund from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing.

This letter also serves to confirm that U.S. Bancorp Asset Management, Inc., the investment adviser to the U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, will not have the right to be reimbursed for any fee waivers and expense reimbursements made pursuant to the contractual expense limitations disclosed in the above-referenced Registration Statement.

Please feel free to call me if you have any additional questions or comments.

Very truly yours,

Dear Ms. Browning:

On October 15, 2004, First American Funds, Inc. (the "Fund") filed
post-effective amendment number 50 to its registration statement for the purpose
of adding the U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund as a series of the Fund.
Accompanying that filing was an acceleration request from the Fund and Quasar
Distributors, LLC, the principal distributor of the Fund's shares, requesting
acceleration of such filing to October 25, 2004 or as soon thereafter as
possible. In connection with such acceleration request, we hereby acknowledge
the following on behalf of the Fund:

         1. Should the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") or
         the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing
         effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action
         with respect to the filing.

         2. The action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to
         delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not
         relieve the Fund from its full responsibility for the adequacy and
         accuracy of the disclosure in the filing.
