Your Fund ended the fiscal year on a strong note, up 9.7% from October 31, 1993,
and 2.6% over the past three months. The final quarter saw a reversal of the
market movements recorded in the first half of the year. Japan ended the quarter
as one of the worst performers among the major markets, with concern over new
equity supply weighing heavily on local sentiment. European markets, which
account for 32% of Fund assets, rose a little in local terms as investors
focused on growing signs of economic recovery rather than continued bond market
weakness. In the Pacific, smaller markets recovered strongly after the declines
seen earlier in the year; Thailand and Malaysia were both good performers. Latin
American markets were mostly strong with Brazil rising an extraordinary 99% in
dollar terms for the year, helped by optimism about the economic reform package
and the outcome of the presidential election.

MARKET REVIEW
 
JAPAN
 
Japan represents approximately 18% of portfolio assets. The Japanese equity
market ended the fiscal year on a dull note. As in 1993, the market's strength
in the first half faded when concern about the strong yen and increased equity
supply served to hold the main market to a gain of 0.9%. Small companies fared
worse with the Tokyo Second Section Index down 0.8% and the OTC down 0.2% in
dollar terms. However, we do not believe that last year's performance, when the
market declined sharply in the final calendar quarter, will reoccur this year.
 
        The main difference is that in 1993 the economy slowed in the second
half, leading to sharp downgrades in corporate earnings estimates.
 
        This year, the economy has continued to improve and, despite the
negative impact on exports of the stronger yen, corporate results should show an
improvement for the first time in five years. With bond yields reversing and
industrial production likely to turn positive soon, the environment for
investment in smaller Japanese companies relative to their larger brethren has
not looked better since 1986. 
 
        Always an important sector for the economy, auto sales rose 12% year-
over-year in August, the first rise in over three years. Looking more broadly at
consumer expenditure, retail sales rose 1.2% year-over-year in July, as the
effects of the hot summer and an income tax cut offset the impact of further
retail price deflation. This price deflation seems to be slowing in recent
months -- encouraging for the corporate sector if not for the consumer.
 
        Economic expansion is likely to continue until 1997, supported by a
healthy world economic environment. However, we believe that Japan is likely to
experience subnormal rates of recovery due to the persistent problems of
overcapacity, the high cost of exports due to the strength of the yen, and a
risk-averse central bank, which has restricted monetary growth to a mere 2% over
the quarter.
 
        Against this backdrop, the thrust of the portfolio has become
economically sensitive. The portfolio now has no holdings in food,
pharmaceutical, public works or utility stocks, and our weighting in housing
stocks has been reduced as the rate of growth slows. The funds have been
redeployed into basic material sectors, machinery, and a modest increase in
medium-sized stockbrokers. In the materials sector, with worldwide prices of
chemicals, steels and paper rising, Japan has become the marginal producer 
despite the dubious long-term health of some of its companies. Many machinery
stocks sell close to book value and, with capital expenditure likely to rise for
the
 
<PAGE>
 
next four years, the stocks look attractive. Of particular note, we added IDEC
IZUMI, the control machinery manufacturer.
 
SOUTHEAST ASIA
 
MALAYSIA rose 9% over the quarter, powered by surprisingly good inflation
numbers. Economic growth continued above 8% this year, concentrated in the
export and investment sectors. Consumption is still restrained, which has
delayed the usual end-of-cycle inflation and trade deficits. We sold our holding
in KELANAMAS when it broke to new highs. We also sold shares in lottery manager
BERJAYA SPORTS TOTO since gambling has become an election issue for the Muslim
majority, but we are otherwise happy with our 4% weighting in this market.
 
        HONG KONG also improved over the quarter, rising 2%. All of last year's
strengths are in reverse in 1994. Fiscal policy, set in Beijing, is becoming
restrictive as China overheats. Monetary policy, effectively set by the Federal
Reserve because of the Hong Kong dollar's link to the U.S. currency, has also
turned restrictive. Real estate prices, traditionally closely correlated with
stock prices, are no longer a one-way street to wealth. Government cooling
measures and buyer/tenant resistance have brought what is for now a mild
correction in office and residential prices. Finally, the supply of stock from
eager investment bankers helping China finance its growth plans is meeting lower
demand from foreign mutual funds and institutions.
 
        The AUSTRALIAN market was slightly disappointed by industrial sector
earnings growth of 18% in the 12 months ended June 30, 1994. Investors were more
excited by the potential for huge resource sector earnings growth over the next
two to three years. After a two-year period of significant small-company
outperformance, we have been taking profits and will look to reduce holdings
further over the course of the year.
 
        INDONESIA also recovered over the quarter, although this market has
disappointed year-to-date. It appears that some of the 1993 demand for real
estate development was more speculative than previously thought. With interest
rates rising in line with the U.S., demand forecasts for certain projects in
Jakarta and especially in Surabaya will have to be scaled back. Furthermore, a
sudden glut of apartments in Jakarta has forced developers to sell projects at
lower prices, and property stocks have been savaged. We added to our consumer
play HANJAYA MANDALA SAMPOERNA, whose earnings have been helped by robust
overall economic growth.
 
        After another good quarter, the INDIAN market is now the region's top
performer year-to-date. Freed from the shackles of extreme government
intervention following the radical deregulation process initiated in 1991,
industrial production is picking up strongly and corporate earnings are surging.
Unfortunately, custodial arrangements in Bombay are as yet unsatisfactory, and
we will confine our Indian exposure for the time being to offshore Euro-issues.
In any case, these tend to be higher quality and better values than the overall
market.

        THAILAND'S stock market also recovered over the quarter. After a three-
year period of adjustment, the outlook for the economy is brighter than ever.
Exports are growing at rates not seen since the boom years of the late 1980s and
are now concentrated in higher value-added areas such as electronics, plastics
and packaging. Even more encouraging, there has been a sudden surge in foreign
direct investment. Smaller companies continued to disappoint as foreign
portfolio managers focused their firepower on the larger, more liquid stocks.
After three years of small-cap underperformance, we will be looking to re-
establish higher weightings as earnings of the smaller industrials recover from
cyclical lows.
 
        SINGAPORE performed relatively well over the quarter, rising 15%. The
economy continues to deliver, with strength in electronics again the driving
force. Non-oil exports rose a remarkable 38% in August, the fastest monthly
growth to date. As a result, corporate profits again surprised on the upside,
enjoying particular strength at manufacturers and banks. However, with interest
rates clearly on the rise and some valuations looking high, we have slightly
reduced our overall weighting.
 
        With all of the cyclical attractions of Japan but few of the 
valuation constraints, KOREA 
 
2
 
<PAGE>
 
rose 22%. Corporate net profits up a stunning 78% obviously helped, as did a
supportive monetary stance from the Bank of Korea. Despite signs that the trade
account is worsening due to a redirection of production to the booming domestic
economy, we remain optimistic. We continue to add positions wherever possible,
although it is difficult since foreign ownership limits have largely been
reached.
 
EUROPE
 
The UK enjoys a favourable mix of low inflation and reasonable growth driven by
manufacturing exports rather than by consumers. Considering the UK's propensity
to inflate, the authorities made a preemptive move in September to lift base
rates half a percentage point to 5.75%, despite weak data from the housing and
retail sectors. Small companies continued the underperformance that started in
the second quarter, and valuations no longer stand at a premium to the main
market. During the quarter, we took profits in BRITISH BIOTECHNOLOGY and have
added a position in MATTHEW CLARK, the drinks wholesaler, which is benefiting
from fragmentation in the industry.
 
[GEOGRAPHIC DIVERSIFICATION GRAPH APPEARS HERE]
  
        In GERMANY a nervous bond market combined with a cautious consumer (car
sales have been falling sharply) produced widespread weakness in cyclical
stocks, revealing an exaggerated fear of slowing growth among investors. During
the quarter we added an overall beneficiary of long-term recovery, the window
frame producer WERU, boosted an existing holding in the scaffolding manufacturer
PLETTAC and sold the outstanding performer SAP, a richly priced software
manufacturer. Among DUTCH companies, we have started to buy FRANS MAAS KON, the
distribution specialist, and excellent results were reported by the holding
company INTERNATIONAL MUELLER.
 
        Non-Germanic Europe has particular worries, offering extensive
opportunities for investors willing to look beyond the present moment. Two
countries, Italy and Sweden, stand out. For the commentators convinced that the
arrival of Prime Minister Berlusconi in ITALY was fascism in disguise, the train
strikes in late summer were a sobering event. Rather than exercising excessive
control, Berlusconi struggled to maintain authority. Ongoing investigations into
his business interests sparked concerns of a delay in his plans to put national
finances in order. Berlusconi's surprisingly tough budget, which plans to cut
the deficit from 9.5% to 8% of GNP, was almost overlooked. We have added to
holdings in SAES GETTERS, an electrical component manufacturer, and SAFILO, a
producer of spectacles.
 
        In SWEDEN there has been much concern that the new Social Democrat
government would put its Keynesian ideology into practice at a time when
government spending was pressuring the national debt. Sweden needs to bring its
finances under tighter control because the rate of debt accumulation is
unsustainable. We are relatively optimistic about the future and have continued
to accumulate holdings of perhaps the cheapest small companies in Europe, adding
to GETINGE INDUSTRIAL (medical equipment), HOGANAS (iron oxide), KALMAR
INDUSTRIES (large scale transportation equipment) and BPA (construction).
 
LATIN AMERICA
 
The BRAZILIAN roller coaster ended this quarter with a strong 35% gain in 
dollar terms. The introduction of the real in July, the new currency 
effectively linked to the dollar, brought monthly inflation down from over 
40% in June 
 
                                                                               3
 
<PAGE>
 
to 3% in September. The prospect of economic stability, for perhaps the first
time in a generation, gave a boost to former Finance Minister Fernando Henrique
Cardoso. His election as president should spur a programme of privatisations,
reform of the constitution, and changes in the tax and social security systems.
During the quarter, we added to CAPCO, the automotive component manufacturer,
and the building materials group EUCATEX. We also took profits in holdings that
had performed well such as the white goods manufacturer REFRIGERACAO
PARANAPANEMA, and WEG, which makes small electric motors. We remain enthusiastic
about the Brazilian market.
 
        In MEXICO PRI candidate Ernesto Zedillo won the presidential election.
Prospects for an unchanged economic policy were reinforced by the renewal of the
Pacto agreement on wage increases and growth targets among government, business
and the unions. A recent visit to Mexico confirmed the contrast between the
booming construction sector and the lacklustre levels of consumer demand. As
interest rates ease, growth in the economy should become more widespread. We
remain overweighted in the construction sector with stocks such as GRUPO
MEXICANO DE DESARROLLO and GRUPO TRIBASA, and we have also added to INTER-
NATIONAL DE CERAMICA, the tile producer. During the quarter we took profits in
DESC, the conglomerate, and the steel company GRUPO SIMEC.
 
        Elsewhere in the region, the markets of ARGENTINA, CHILE and COLOMBIA
made steady progress in sectors such as cement, banking and beverages. In PERU,
the Fujimori government continued its aggressive programme of privatisation; in
the past two years over $2 billion was raised from public sector sales. The
programme should be completed by June 1995, which will leave the government as
guardian of health and national security, but free up the rest of the economy to
the private sector. With Peruvian GDP forecast to grow 9% this year, the stock
market offers great potential. During the quarter, we added holdings of CEMENTOS
LIMA and SOUTHERN PERU COPPER.

INVESTMENT POLICY AND OUTLOOK
 
At the end of the second quarter, we wrote that we felt pessimism was overdone
and international markets generally represented good value. Despite the rises
seen over this quarter, we continue to believe this is the case. The economic
cycle outside the U.S. is only just beginning to turn up, and our analysis
suggests that growth in such areas as Continental Europe and Japan should not
peak until late 1996 at the earliest. In this light, we think corporate profits
are likely to be stronger for longer than the consensus opinion -- a scenario in
which smaller companies should flourish.

        The major concern of international equity investors remains the local 
bond markets, which continue to take their lead from the U.S. We believe 
long-term interest rates are now near peak levels given subdued inflationary 
expectations and moderate to high real yields worldwide. Equities should be 
helped by more resilient bond markets over the next year. Finally, valuations 
continue to look reasonable in most markets, supported by comparisons with 
bonds.
 
        This relatively sanguine overview encourages us to emphasise areas where
we believe growth will be strongest and valuations most acceptable. In
particular, we still like the smaller markets of the Pacific and Latin America,
although we are taking profits in the former. In Europe we are increasing
exposure to laggard markets such as Sweden at the expense of the UK, Belgium and
Norway. In Japan we are adding to reasonably valued stocks in economically
sensitive areas, and we believe smaller companies are at relatively attractive
valuation levels.

                REVIEWING YOUR INTERNATIONAL INVESTING STRATEGY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Not so very long ago, we probably would not have addressed this issue, because
relatively few U.S. investors had an international investing strategy to review.
In recent years, however, investor focus has broadened appreciably, and now
global investing seems finally to be catching up with "global consuming."
 
         The merits of placing a portion of your financial assets in overseas
investments have become widely recognized, as evidenced by the dramatic growth
of international mutual fund assets. Amid all the investment uncertainties
generated by rising interest rates this year -- both in the U.S. and a number of
other countries -- our international equity funds continued to expand
impressively.
 
         The historic evidence is clear that a prudent equity diversification
strategy that includes foreign stocks can reduce the year-to-year volatility of
an equity portfolio and, over time, enhance overall returns. Volatility may be
reduced because foreign stocks often move in divergent directions from the U.S.
market. With over half of all stocks in the world originating and trading
outside the U.S. -- many in countries growing faster than the U.S. -- it can be
argued that the investor who restricts his or her portfolio entirely to U.S.
securities is less prudent than the one who diversifies more widely.
 
         Since you are an international investor, we do not want to preach to
the converted. Rather, we want to suggest you take a minute to review your 
T. Rowe Price international investments to ensure they are in line with your
financial strategy and your overall portfolio.
 
AN INTERNATIONAL ALLOCATION
 
         Except in unusual circumstances, we believe a majority of an investor's
international equity exposure should be in a core fund that has a broadly
diversified portfolio of well-established companies around the world. Our
International Stock Fund is designed to be such a core holding. If you have a
particular interest in a certain region, you may want to put some assets in a
more specialized fund. The New Asia, Europe, Latin America, and Japan Funds have
narrow geographic focuses, while our International Discovery Fund emphasizes
rapidly growing smaller companies in all of those areas. Without the conviction
to stick through potentially tough periods, you should be cautious about
investing in regional funds, which may have greater price volatility.
 
         Don't base your allocation decisions solely on the past performance of
any stock market, and keep in mind the risks of foreign investing, including the
possibility of unfavorable currency exchange rates. You may want to consider
shifting a portion of your investment dollars into a particular international
asset over a period of time, instead of all at once. By focusing on your
particular financial objectives, the length of time in which you hope to achieve
them, and your willingness to accept risks represented by various investments,
you should be in a good position to structure your international investment
portfolio.

T. Rowe Price International Discovery Fund / October 31, 1994
 
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
T. Rowe Price International Funds, Inc. (the Corporation) is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940. The International Discovery Fund (the Fund),
a diversified, open-end management investment company, is one of the portfolios
established by the Corporation.
 
A) Valuation - Equity securities listed or regularly traded on a securities
exchange (including NASDAQ) are valued at the last quoted sales price at the
time the valuations are made. A security which is listed or traded on more than
one exchange is valued at the quotation on the exchange determined to be the
primary market for such security. Other equity securities and those listed
securities that are not traded on a particular day are valued at a price within
the limits of the latest bid and asked prices deemed by the Board of Directors,
or by persons delegated by the Board, best to reflect fair value.
 
        Debt securities are generally traded in the over-the-counter market and
are valued at a price deemed best to reflect fair value as quoted by dealers who
make markets in these securities or by an independent pricing service. Short-
term debt securities are valued at their cost which, when combined with accrued
interest, approximates fair value.
 
        For purposes of determining the Fund's net asset value per share, the
U.S. dollar value of all assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign
currencies is determined by using the mean of the bid and offer prices of such
currencies against U.S. dollars quoted by a major bank.
 
        Assets and liabilities for which the above valuation procedures are
inappropriate or are deemed not to reflect fair value are stated at fair value
as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the officers of the
Fund, as authorized by the Board of Directors.
 
B) Currency translation - Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S.
dollars at prevailing exchange rates as follows: assets and liabilities at the
rate of exchange at the end of the respective period, purchases and sales of
securities and income and expenses at the rate of exchange prevailing on the
dates of such transactions. The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on
realized and unrealized security gains or losses is reflected as a component of
such gains or losses.
 
C) Other - Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Investment
transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are
reported on an identified cost basis. Dividend income and distributions to
shareholders are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and
capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax
regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Effective January 1, 1993, the Fund discontinued its practice of equalization.
The results of operations and net assets were not affected by this change.
 
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
 
As a part of its investment program, the Fund engages in the following
activities, the nature and risk of which are set forth more fully in the Fund's
Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information.
 
A) Emerging Markets - The Fund has investments in securities of companies
located in emerging markets. Future economic or political developments could
adversely affect the liquidity or value, or both, of such securities.
 
B) Other - Purchases and sales of portfolio securities, other than short-term
and U.S. Government securities, aggregated $402,635,000 and $263,384,000,
respectively, for the year ended October 31, 1994.

NOTE 3 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
 
No provision for federal income taxes is required since the Fund intends to
continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of 
its taxable income. Capital loss carryforwards utilized in the year ended 
October 31, 1994 amounted to $10,670,000.
 
        In order for the Fund's capital accounts and distributions to
shareholders to reflect the tax character of certain transactions, $488,000 of
undistributed net investment income and $428,000 of undistributed net realized
gains were reclassified as a $60,000 increase to paid-in-capital during the year
ended October 31, 1994. The results of operations and net assets were not
affected by the reclassifications.
 
        At October 31, 1994, the aggregate cost of investments for federal
income tax and financial reporting purposes was $448,722,000 and net unrealized
appreciation aggregated $45,831,000, of which $75,625,000 related to appreciated
investments and $29,794,000 to depreciated investments.
 
NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
The Fund is managed by Rowe Price-Fleming International, Inc. (Price-Fleming),
which is owned by T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (Price Associates), Robert
Fleming Holdings Limited, and Jardine Fleming Holdings Limited under a joint
venture agreement.
 
        The investment management agreement between the Fund and Price-Fleming
(the Manager) provides for an annual investment management fee, computed daily
and paid monthly, consisting of an Individual Fund Fee equal to 0.75% of average
daily net assets and a Group Fee. The Group Fee is based on the combined assets
of certain mutual funds sponsored by the Manager or Price Associates (the
Group). The Group Fee rate ranges from 0.48% for the first $1 billion of assets
to 0.31% for assets in excess of $34 billion. The effective annual Group Fee
rate at October 31, 1994, and for the year then ended was 0.34%. The Fund pays a
pro rata portion of the Group Fee based on the ratio of the Fund's net assets to
those of the Group. 
 
        Under the terms of the investment management agreement, the Manager was
required to bear any expenses through December 31, 1993, which would have caused
the Fund's ratio of expenses to average net assets to exceed 1.50%. Thereafter,
the Fund is required to reimburse the Manager for these expenses, provided that
average net assets have grown or expenses have declined sufficiently so as to
cause the Fund's ratio of expenses to average net assets not to exceed 1.50% in
any month, and that no such reimbursement shall be made to the Manager after
December 31, 1995. Pursuant to this and a previous agreement, $159,000 of
unaccrued 1991-1992 fees were repaid during the year ended October 31, 1994, and
$386,000 remains subject to reimbursement through December 31, 1994.
Additionally, $85,000 of unaccrued management fees from the ten months ended
October 31, 1993 are subject to reimbursement through December 31, 1995.
 
        During the year ended October 31, 1994, the Fund, in the ordinary course
of business, paid commissions of $366,000 to, and placed security purchase and
sale orders aggregating $73,515,000 with, certain affiliates of the Manager in
connection with the execution of various portfolio transactions at the direction
of Price-Fleming.
 
        T. Rowe Price Services, Inc. (TRPS) and Retirement Plan Services, Inc.
(RPS) are wholly owned subsidiaries of Price Associates. TRPS provides transfer
and dividend disbursing agent functions and shareholder services for all
accounts. RPS provides subaccounting and recordkeeping services for certain
retirement accounts invested in the Fund. Price Associates, under a separate
agreement, calculates the daily share price and maintains the financial records
of the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 1994, the Fund incurred fees
totalling approximately $882,000 for these services provided by related parties.
At October 31, 1994, these investment management and service fees payable were
$557,000.
 
                                                                              21

Report of Independent Accountants

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
T. Rowe Price International Discovery Fund
 
        In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities,
including the portfolio of investments, and the related statements of operations
and of changes in net assets and the selected per share data and information
(which appears under the heading "Financial Highlights") present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of T. Rowe Price International
Discovery Fund (one of the portfolios constituting T. Rowe Price International
Funds, Inc.) at October 31, 1994, the results of its operations, the changes in
its net assets and the selected per share data and information for each of the
fiscal periods presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. These financial statements and selected per share data and
information (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 1994 by
correspondence with custodians and brokers and, where appropriate, the
application of alternative auditing procedures for unsettled security
transactions, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
