  Using a data sample with integrated luminosity of about 3.9 fb^{-1} collected
in e+ e- annihilation with the CLEO-II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage
Ring, we have measured the branching ratios for the decay modes Ds -> (eta,
eta') pi and Ds -> (eta, eta') rho relative to Ds -> phi pi. These decay modes
are among the most common hadronic decays of the Ds's and can be related by
factorization to the semileptonic decays Ds -> (eta,eta') l nu. The results
obtained are compared with previous CLEO results and with the branching ratios
measured for the related semileptonic decays. We also report results on the
Cabibbo-suppressed decays of the D+ to the same final states.
