More yield, less taxes

Most of the time, making money means paying taxes.  But investors
still can enjoy income that generally is free from federal taxes by
taking advantage of tax-exempt bonds.  High Yield Tax-Exempt Fund,
the largest national municipal bond fund, strives to provide the
maximum amount of tax-free income by focusing on municipal bonds
that pay above-average interest.  However, certain income may be
subject to state or local or the alternative minimum tax.  To
reduce the investment risk, the Fund holds a large, widely
diversified portfolio of bonds providing protection to shareholders
seeking to avoid the impact of default by an individual bond.  The
result may be a superior after-tax return for investors in higher
tax brackets.

From the president

If you're an experienced investor, you know that 1995 was an
unusually strong year for the U.S. financial markets.  Perhaps just
as important, you also know that history shows that bull markets
don't last forever.  Though they're often unpredictable, declines -
whether they're brief or long-lasting, moderate or substantial -
are always a possibility.

That fact reinforces the need for investors to review periodically
their long-term goals and assess whether their investment program
remains on track to achieving them.  Your quarterly investment
statements are one part of that monitoring process.  The other is a
meeting with your American Express financial advisor.  That becomes
even more important if there's a major change in your financial
situation or in the financial markets.

William R. Pearce

From the portfolio manager

What a difference a year can make.

In 1994, the bond market suffered through one of its worst years
ever, as rising interest rates drove down prices almost
continually.  In 1995, the interest-rate trend reversed direction
and sent bond prices soaring.  IDS High Yield Tax-Exempt Fund's
performance reflected the market's recent comeback, as it generated
a total return of nearly 19% (Class A shares) during its fiscal
year - December 1994 through November 1995.

The market's turnaround coincided almost exactly with the beginning
of the Fund's fiscal year.  In mid-December, with their fears of
higher inflation abating somewhat, investors began moving
cautiously back into bonds.  The increased buying began driving
down long-term interest rates and, in the process, pushing up bond
prices and the net asset value of the Fund.

An extended advance

In a matter of just a few weeks, bond investors' increasing
confidence turned a market upturn into a roaring rally that, except
for a comparatively brief summer slump, lasted through November.
<PAGE>
PAGE 5
In the process, long-term interest rates on municipal bonds fell
nearly one and a half percentage points, settling at 5.8% at
period-end.

The only thing to mar the otherwise excellent investment
environment was talk coming out of Washington regarding tax
reform - specifically, proposals for a flat federal income tax. 
Because a flat tax would negate municipal bonds' tax-free-income
advantage, municipals came under some selling pressure at times,
especially during summer.  Our view is that major tax reform, if it
ever became a reality, would not be enacted until 1997, at the
earliest.

Successful strategies

Beyond the inherent benefit of falling long-term interest rates,
the Fund's performance also enjoyed a boost from our decision to
lengthen the average maturity of the bonds in the portfolio.  This
strategy centered on our belief that interest rates would decline
in 1995.  Because a bond's price sensitivity to interest-rate
changes increases with its maturity (for example, a 30-year bond is
more price sensitive than a 10-year bond), we were rewarded even
more by the overall decline in rates.

Another strategy that paid off was to maintain some exposure to
lower-rated bonds, whose prices rose faster than higher-quality
issues.  Lastly, we kept a low level of cash reserves, which
offered a meager return compared with what we were able to realize
from our municipal bond holdings.

Looking to the current fiscal year, the environment appears little
changed from several months ago.  At this writing, the economy is
still moving forward and inflation remains low.  The only notable
difference is that long-term interest rates have come down
substantially since the start of 1995, resulting in uncommonly
strong bond-price appreciation (reflected in the Fund's higher net
asset value).  While rates could continue to move down in 1996, we
expect any decline to be less dramatic.  Ultimately, that is likely
to mean that the dividend will account for most of the Fund's
return in the months ahead.  In the meantime, we will continue to
manage the portfolio with a focus on maintaining an above-average
yield.

purposes.  The performance of Class B and Class Y will vary from
the performance of Class A based on differences in sales charges
and fees.

Your investment and return values fluctuate so that your shares,
when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. 
Figures for Class A and Class B reflect the effect of the maximum
5% sales charge.  This was a period of widely fluctuating security
prices.  Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

Build your assets systematically

One of the best ways to invest in the Fund is by dollar-cost
averaging -- a time-tested strategy that can make market
fluctuations work for you.  To dollar-cost average, simply invest a
fixed amount of money regularly.  You'll automatically buy more
shares when the Fund's share price is low, fewer shares when it is
high.

This does not ensure a profit or avoid a loss if the market
declines.  But, if you can continue to invest regularly through
changing market conditions, it can be an effective way to
accumulate shares to meet your long-term goals.

How dollar-cost averaging works

Month       Amount       Per-share      Number of shares purchased
            invested     market price
Jan         $100         $20            5.00
Feb          100          18            5.56
Mar          100          17            5.88
Apr          100          15            6.67
May          100          16            6.25
June         100          18            5.56
July         100          17            5.88
Aug          100          19            5.26
Sept         100          21            4.76
Oct          100          20            5.00

(footnotes to table) By investing an equal number of dollars each
month...

(arrow in table pointing to April) you automatically buy more
shares when the per share market price is low.

Your Fund's long-term performance

Three ways to benefit from a mutual Fund:

o     your shares increase in value when the Fund's investments do
      well

o     you receive capital gains when the gains on investments sold
      by the Fund exceed losses

o     you receive income when the Fund's interest and short-term
      gains exceed its expenses.

All three make up your total return.  And you potentially can
increase your investment if, like most investors, you reinvest your
dividends and capital gain distributions to buy additional shares
of the Fund or another Fund.

Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index is made up of a representative
list of general obligation, revenue, insured and prefunded bonds. 
The index is frequently used as a general measure of tax-exempt
bond market performance.  However, the securities used to create
the index may not be representative of the bonds held in High Yield
Tax-Exempt Fund.

On the graph above you can see how the Fund's total return compared
to a widely cited performance measure, the Lehman Brothers
Municipal Bond Index.  In comparing High Yield Tax-Exempt Fund with
this index, you should take into account the fact that the Fund's
performance reflects the maximum sales charge of 5%, while such
charges are not reflected in the performance of the index.  If you
were actually to buy either individual bonds or bond mutual funds,
any sales charge that you pay would reduce your total return as
well.

Your investment and return values fluctuate so that your shares,
when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. 
This was a period of widely fluctuating security prices.  Past
performance is no guarantee of future results.

Independent auditors' report
___________________________________________________________________

The board of directors and shareholders
IDS High Yield Tax-Exempt Fund, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and
liabilities, including the schedule of investments in securities,
of IDS High Yield Tax-Exempt Fund, Inc. as of November 30, 1995,
and the related statement of operations for the year then ended and
the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in
the two-year period ended November 30, 1995, and the financial
highlights for each of the years in the four-year period ended
November 30, 1995, the eleven months ended November 30, 1991, and
for each of the years in the five-year period ended December 31,
1990.  These financial statements and the financial highlights are
the responsibility of fund management.  Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements and the financial
highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards.  Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements and the financial highlights are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements.  Investment securities held in custody are 
confirmed to us by the custodian.  As to securities purchased and
sold but not received or delivered, we request confirmations from
brokers, and where replies are not received, we carry out other
appropriate auditing procedures.  An audit also includes assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of IDS

IDS High Yield Tax-Exempt Fund, Inc.
___________________________________________________________________
1. Summary of significant accounting policies

The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 
(as amended) as a diversified, open-end management investment
company.  The Fund offers Class A, Class B and Class Y shares.
Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales charge.  Class B
shares, which the Fund began offering on March 20, 1995, may be
subject to a contingent deferred sales charge.  Class B shares
automatically convert to Class A after eight years.  Class Y
shares, which the Fund also began offering on March 20, 1995, 
have no sales charge and are offered only to qualifying
institutional investors.

All classes of shares have identical voting, dividend, liquidation
and other rights, and the same terms and conditions, except that
the level of distribution fee, transfer agency fee and service fee
(class specific expenses) differs among classes.  Income, expenses
(other than class specific expenses) and realized and unrealized
gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of
shares based upon its relative net assets.

Significant accounting policies followed by the Fund are summarized
below:

Valuation of securities

All securities are valued at the close of each business day.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available
are valued at fair value according to methods selected in good
faith by the board of directors.  Determination of fair value
involves, among other things, reference to market indexes, matrixes
and data from independent brokers.  Short-term securities maturing
in more than 60 days from the valuation date are valued at the
market price or approximate market value based on current interest
rates; those maturing in 60 days or less are valued at amortized
cost.

Option transactions

In order to produce incremental earnings, protect gains, and
facilitate buying and selling of securities for investment
purposes, the Fund may buy and sell put and call options and write
covered call options on the portfolio securities and may write
cash-secured put options.  The risk in writing a call option is
that the Fund gives up the opportunity of profit if the market
price of the security increases.  The risk in writing a put option
is that the Fund may incur a loss if the market price of the
security decreases and the option is exercised.  The risk in buying
an option is that the Fund pays a premium whether or not the option
is exercised.  The Fund also has the additional risk of not being
able to enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary
market does not exist.  The Fund also may write over-the-counter
options where the completion of the obligation is dependent upon
the credit standing of the other party.
<PAGE>
PAGE 14
Option contracts are valued daily at the closing prices on their
primary exchanges and unrealized appreciation or depreciation is
recorded.  The Fund will realize a gain or loss upon expiration or
closing of the option transaction.  When options on debt securities
or futures are exercised, the Fund will realize a gain or loss.
When other options are exercised, the proceeds on sales for a
written call option, the purchase cost for a written put option or
the cost of a security for a purchased put or call option is
adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid.

Futures transactions

In order to gain exposure to or protect itself from changes in the
market, the Fund may buy and sell interest rate futures contracts.
Risks of entering into futures contracts and related options
include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market and
that a change in the value of the contract or option may not
correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.

Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to
deposit either cash or securities in an amount (initial margin)
equal to a certain percentage of the contract value.  Subsequent
payments (variation margin) are made or received by the Fund each
day.  The variation margin payments are equal to the daily changes
in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains and
losses.  The Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the
contract is closed or expires.

Securities purchased on a when-issued basis

Delivery and payment for securities that have been purchased by the
Fund on a forward-commitment or when-issued basis can take place
one month or more after the transaction date.  During this period,
such securities are subject to market fluctuations, and they may
affect the Fund's net assets the same as owned securities.  The
Fund designates cash or liquid high-grade short-term debt
securities at least equal to the amount of its commitment.  As of
Nov. 30, 1995, the Fund had entered into outstanding when-issued or
forward commitments of $63,207,971.

Federal taxes

Since the Fund's policy is to comply with all sections of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies
and to distribute all of its taxable income to shareholders, no
provision for income or excise taxes is required.

Net investment income (loss) and net realized gains (losses) may
differ for financial statement and tax purposes primarily because
of the deferral of losses on certain futures contracts, the
recognition of certain foreign currency gains (losses) as ordinary
income (loss) for tax purposes, and losses deferred due to "wash
sale" transactions.  The character of distributions made during the
year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ
from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax
purposes.  Also, due to the timing of dividend distributions, the
fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the
year that the income or realized gains (losses) were recorded by
the Fund.<PAGE>
PAGE 15
On the statement of assets and liabilities, as a result of
permanent book-to-tax differences, undistributed net investment
income has been increased by $4,389 and accumulated net realized
loss has been increased by $4,389.

Dividends to shareholders

Dividends from net investment income, declared daily and payable
monthly, are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund at net
asset value or payable in cash.  Capital gains, when available, are
distributed along with the last income dividend of the calendar
year. 

Other

Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are
purchased or sold.  Interest income, including level-yield
amortization of premium and discount, is accrued daily.

___________________________________________________________________
2. Expenses and sales charges

Under terms of a prior agreement that ended March 19, 1995, the
Fund paid AEFC a fee for managing its investments, recordkeeping
and other specified services.  The fee was a percentage of the
Fund's average daily net assets consisting of a group asset charge
in reducing percentages from 0.46% to 0.32% annually on the
combined net assets of all non-money market funds in the IDS MUTUAL
FUND GROUP and an individual annual asset charge of 0.11% of
average daily net assets.

Also under terms of the prior agreement, the Fund paid AEFC a
distribution fee at an annual rate of $6 per shareholder account
and a transfer agency fee at an annual rate of $15.50 per
shareholder account.

Effective March 20, 1995, when the Fund began offering multiple
classes of shares, the Fund entered into agreements with AEFC for
managing its portfolio, providing administrative services and
serving as transfer agent as follows: Under its Investment
Management Services Agreement, AEFC determines which securities
will be purchased, held or sold.  The management fee is a
percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets in reducing
percentages from 0.49% to 0.36% annually.

Under an Administrative Services Agreement, the Fund pays AEFC for
administration and accounting services at a percentage of the
Fund's average daily net assets in reducing percentages from 0.04%
to 0.02% annually.

Under a separate Transfer Agency Agreement, AEFC maintains
shareholder accounts and records.  The Fund pays AEFC an annual fee
per shareholder account for this service as follows:

o Class A $15.50
o Class B $16.50
o Class Y $15.50
<PAGE>
PAGE 16
Also effective March 20, 1995, the Fund entered into agreements
with American Express Financial Advisors Inc. for distribution and
shareholder servicing-related services as follows: Under a Plan and
Agreement of Distribution, the Fund pays a distribution fee at an
annual rate of 0.75% of the Fund's average daily net assets
attributable to Class B shares for distribution-related services.

Under a Shareholder Service Agreement, the Fund pays a fee for
service provided to shareholders by financial advisors and other
servicing agents.  The fee is calculated at a rate of 0.175% of the
Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class A and Class B
shares.

AEFC will assume and pay any expenses (except taxes and brokerage
commissions) that exceed the most restrictive applicable state
expense limitation.

Sales charges received by American Express Financial Advisors Inc.
for distributing Fund shares were $10,966,401 for Class A and
$16,882 for Class B for the year ended Nov. 30, 1995.  During the
year ended Nov. 30, 1995, the Fund's custodian and transfer agency
fees were reduced by $85,528 as a result of earnings credits from
overnight cash balances.

The Fund has a retirement plan for its independent directors.  Upon
retirement, directors receive monthly payments equal to one-half of
the retainer fee for as many months as they served as directors up
to 120 months.  There are no death benefits.  The plan is not
funded, but the Fund recognizes the cost of payments during the
time the directors serve on the board.  The retirement plan expense
amounted to $74,909 for the year ended Nov. 30, 1995.

___________________________________________________________________
3. Securities transactions

Cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities (other than
short-term obligations) aggregated $849,400,189 and $837,487,421,
respectively, for the year ended Nov. 30, 1995.  Realized gains and
losses are determined on an identified cost basis.

___________________________________________________________________
4. Interest rate futures contracts

At Nov. 30, 1995, investments in securities included securities
valued at $35,302,175 that were pledged as collateral to cover
initial margin deposits on 3,051 open purchase contracts.  The
market value of the open contracts at Nov. 30, 1995 was
$365,410,406 with a net unrealized gain of $16,575,124.  The Fund
maintains, in a segregated account with its custodian, securities
with at least a market value equal to the value of these open long
futures contracts.

<PAGE>
PAGE 17
___________________________________________________________________
5. Capital loss carryover

For federal income tax purposes, the Fund has a capital loss
carryover of $37,326,194 at Nov. 30, 1995 that will expire in 2002
if not offset by subsequent capital gains.  It is unlikely the
board of directors will authorize a distribution of any net
realized capital gains until the available capital loss carryover
has been offset or expires.
