More yield,
less taxes
Most of the time,
making money means paying taxes.
But investors still can
enjoy income that is generally
free from federal income 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 largely
tax-free income by focusing on
municipal bonds that pay
above-average interest. To reduce
the investment risk, the portfolio
holds a large, widely diversified
group of bonds. The result can be
a healthy 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.

From the portfolio manager
The roller-coaster ride the bond market
has been on in recent years continued
during the past six months, as the market
followed up a spectacular 1995 with a sharp
downturn in the late winter and early spring
of 1996. Though they held up better than
some other types of bonds, municipals lost
value as well, resulting in a negative total
return for IDS High Yield Tax-Exempt Fund
during the first half of its fiscal year,
December 1995 through May 1996.
The period got off to a positive start,
however, as the decline in long-term interest
rates that had sparked bonds' remarkable rally
in 1995 continued through December.
(As always, falling rates inflate bond prices,
while rising rates depress them.)
The bond market managed to sustain its positive
momentum into January, but by mid-February the
market's underpinnings of slow economic growth,
low inflation and hopes for a balanced federal
budget agreement had begun to crumble.
Psychological shift drives market down
In fact, bond investors' views on the economy
and inflation were in the process of doing a
complete flip-flop, going from expectations
of imminent recession and still lower inflation
and perhaps even deflation to worries about a
resurgent economy accompanied by soaring
inflation. While no evidence of either of
the latter possibilities was in sight, traders
began dumping bonds, sending long-term rates
steadily higher and bond prices steadily lower
before easing off in April and May.
Because I was relatively optimistic about the
investment environment, I maintained a
longer-than-average portfolio maturity going
into the fiscal year. This strategy, which makes
a portfolio more sensitive to interest-rate
changes, paid off very well for the Fund when
long-term rates fell in 1995 but penalized its
performance during the rate rise in 1996.
As the period progressed, I reduced the
portfolio's maturity to cushion the Fund in
the event of still-higher rates.
In other Portfolio modifications, I slightly
increased the exposure to below-investment-grade
bonds in an effort to shore up the Fund's
dividend, which declined during 1995 as
interest rates came down.
(In many cases, such higher-coupon bonds
have been "called away" - redeemed ahead of
their maturity dates - by their issuers over
the past two years in order to refinance
their debt at a lower rate.)
Better environment expected
Although still somewhat volatile, at this
writing (mid-June) the bond market may have
put its worst woes behind it for this year.
In fact, assuming my outlook for moderating
economic growth and little if any pick-up
in inflation is reasonably accurate, I
think the odds are good that long-term
interest rates will be lower by year-end.
If that proves true, it would allow bonds
in general and the Portfolio to make up
lost ground in the months ahead.
Another big question mark at this point is
what may come out of the presidential campaign,
especially regarding taxes. While talk of a
flat tax has subsided (to the benefit of municipal
bonds), proposals for substantial tax cuts could
periodically upset the market. Naturally,
I will closely monitor the political and economic
factors and, if warranted, adjust the Portfolio
accordingly. In the meantime, maintaining an
attractive tax-free dividend will continue to
be the primary goal.

IDS High Yield Tax-Exempt Fund, Inc.
(Unaudited as to May 31, 1996)
____________________________________________________________
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 seeks to provide shareholders with a high
yield generally exempt from federal income taxes.
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 may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge
and such shares automatically convert to Class A after eight years.
Class Y shares 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.
Investment in Tax-Free High Yield Portfolio
Effective May 13, 1996, the Fund began investing all of its assets
in the Tax-Free High Yield Portfolio (Portfolio), a series of
Tax Free Income Trust, an open-end investment company that has
the same objectives as the Fund. This was accomplished by transferring
the Fund's assets to the Portfolio in return for a proportionate
ownership interest in the Portfolio. The percentage of the Portfolio
owned by the Fund at May 31, 1996 was 99.99%. The Fund records daily
its share of the Portfolio's income, expenses and realized and
unrealized gains and losses. The financial statements of the Portfolio
are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in
conjunction with the Fund's financial statements.
The Fund records its investment in the Portfolio at value which
is equal to the Fund's proportionate owership interest in the net
assets of the Portfolio. Valuation of securities held by the
Portfolio is discussed in Note 1 of the Portfolio's Notes to
Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of increase and decrease
in net assets from operations during the period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
<PAGE>
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 the shareholders, no
provision for income or excise taxes is required.
Net investment income (loss) and net realized gains (losses)
allocated from the Portfolio 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.
Dividends to shareholders
Dividends declared daily and payable monthly, from net
investment income, 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.
__________________________________________________________
2. Expenses and sales charges
In addition to the expenses allocated from the Portfolio,
the Fund accrues its own expenses as follows:
Effective March 20, 1995, the Fund entered into agreements
with American Express Financial Corporation (AEFC) for
providing administrative services and serving as transfer
agent as follows: Under its 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 this agreement, the Fund also pays
taxes; audit and certain legal fees; registration fees
for shares; office expenses; consultant's fees;
compensation of board members, officers and employees;
corporate filing fees; organizational expenses; and any
other expenses properly payable by the Fund approved
by the board.
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>
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 for
distributing Fund shares were $6,108,241 for Class A and
$56,334 for Class B for the six months ended May 31, 1996.
Prior to April 30, 1996, the Fund had a retirement plan for its
independent board members. The plan was terminated April 30, 1996.
The retirement plan expense amounted to $12,175 for the six
months ended May 31, 1996. The total liability for the plan is
$235,918, which will be paid out at some future date.

Notes to financial statements
Tax-Free High Yield Portfolio
(Unaudited as to May 31, 1996)
____________________________________________________________
1. Summary of significant accounting policies
The Tax-Free High Yield Portfolio (Portfolio) is a series of
Tax Free Income Trust (Trust) and is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end
management investment company. Tax Free Income Portfolio seeks
to provide unitholders with a high yield generally exempt
from federal income taxes by investing in medium- and
lower-quality bonds and notes issued by or on behalf of
state and local governmental units whose interest generally
is exempt from federal income tax. The Portfolio also may
invest in derivative instruments and money market instruments.
The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue
non-transferable interests in the Portfolio.
The Portfolio commenced operations on May 13, 1996.
At this time an existing fund transferred its assets
to the Portfolio in return for an ownership percentage of
the Portfolio.
Significant accounting polices followed by the
Portfolio are summarized below:
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of increase and decrease in net
assets from operations during the period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Valuation of securities
All securities are valued at the close of each business day.
Securities traded on national securities exchanges or included
in national market systems are valued at the last quoted
sales price; securities for which market quotations are
not readily available are valued at fair value according
to methods selected in good faith by the board.
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.
<PAGE>
Option transactions
In order to produce incremental earnings, protect gains
and facilitate buying and selling of securities for
investment purposes, the Portfolio may buy or write
options traded on any U.S. or foreign exchange or in
the over-the-counter market where the completion of the
obligation is dependent upon the credit standing of the
other party. The Portfolio also may buy and sell put
and call options and write covered call options on
portfolio securities and may write cash-secured put
options. The risk in writing a call option is that the
Portfolio gives up the opportunity of profit if
the market price of the security increases.
The risk in writing a put option is that the
Portfolio 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 Portfolio
pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised.
The Portfolio also has the additional risk of not
being able to enter into a closing transaction if a
liquid secondary market does not exist.
Option contracts are valued daily at the closing
prices on their primary exchanges and unrealized
appreciation or depreciation is recorded.
The Portfolio will realize a gain or loss upon
expiration or closing of the option transaction.
When an option is 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 Portfolio may buy
and sell stock index futures contracts traded on
any U.S. or foreign exchange.
The Portfolio also may buy or write put and call
options on these 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 Portfolio
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 Portfolio 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 Portfolio recognizes
a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed
or expires.
Federal taxes
For federal income tax purposes the Portfolio qualifies
as a partnership and each investor in the Portfolio is
treated as the owner of its proportionate share of the
net assets, income, expenses and realized and unrealized
gains and losses of the Portfolio. Accordingly, as
a "pass-through" entity, the Portfolio does not pay
any income dividends or capital gain distributions.
<PAGE>
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. Fees and expenses
The Trust, on behalf of the Portfolio, has entered into an
Investment Management Services Agreement with American
Express Financial Corporation (AEFC) for managing its
portfolio. Under this agreement, AEFC determines which securities
will be purchased, held or sold.
The management fee is a percentage of the Portfolio's average
daily net assets in reducing percentages from 0.49% to 0.36% annually.
Under the agreement, the Trust also pays taxes and nonadvisory
expenses, which include custodian fees to be paid to an
affiliate of AEFC; audit and certain legal fees; fidelity
bond premiums; registration fees for units; Portfolio office
expenses; consultants' fees; compensation of trustees;
corporate filing fees; and any other expenses properly
payable by the Trust or Portfolio, approved by the board.
For the period from May 13, 1996 to May 31, 1996,
the Portfolio's custodian fees were reduced by
$3,284 as a result of earnings credits from
overnight cash balances.
Pursuant to a Placement Agency Agreement, American
Express Financial Advisors Inc. acts as placement
agent of the units of the Trust.
____________________________________________________________________
3. Securities transactions
Cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities
(other than short-term obligations) aggregated $40,619,570
and $58,871,412, respectively, for the period from May 13, 1996
to May 31, 1996. For the same period, the portfolio turnover
rate was 14%. Realized gains and losses are determined on an
identified cost basis.
___________________________________________________________________
4. Interest rate futures contracts
At May 31, 1996, investments in securities included securities
valued at $38,083,319 that were pledged as collateral to cover
initial margin deposits on 745 purchase and 100 sale contracts.
The market value of the open contracts at May 31, 1996 was
$91,312,813 with a net unrealized loss of $1,904,531.
The Portfolio 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.
___________________________________________________________________

The number of contracts and premium amounts associated with
option contracts written is as follows:

6.Capital loss carryover
For federal income tax purposes, the Fund has a capital loss carryover
of $16,716,000 at May 31, 1996, that if not offset by subsequent
capital gains, will expire in 2004. It is unlikely the board will
authorize a distribution of any realized gains until the available
capital loss carryover has been offset or expires.
