International markets were generally weak in the quarter ended April 30, 
although the fall of the dollar versus major currencies sharply increased 
returns for U.S. investors. Some European markets were strong, particularly 
France and the U.K. Pacific markets also rallied after weakness in January, 
with Hong Kong, Australia, and New Zealand spearheading this group. Japan 
fell sharply in local terms because of a poor economic outlook, but the 
strength of the yen generated positive returns for U.S. investors.

     The last few months have been difficult for the small foreign companies 
your fund invests in, affecting fund performance. Your fund registered a 
small positive return for the quarter ended April 30, but trailed the 
benchmark index for both periods shown below, because it had a significant 
position in emerging market small companies not represented in the unmanaged 
benchmark.

MARKET REVIEW

SOUTHEAST ASIA

HONG KONG led the region with a strong three-month gain measured in U.S. 
dollars. At first glance, Hong Kong appears to represent good value at 11 
times this year's earnings compared with a historical price/earnings ratio of 
12. However, earnings growth is decelerating quickly, particularly in the 
real estate sector. It has been difficult for Hong Kong stocks to rise during 
past slowdowns, so we prefer China where pessimism seems overdone. We sold 
stocks of companies whose earnings were disappointing; CHAMPION'S pager sales 
are plummeting, as are S. MEGGA'S sales of cordless phones and fax machines. 
In their place we added semiconductor stocks KINGBOARD CHEMICAL and QPL 
INTERNATIONAL.

     MALAYSIAN stocks rose in the quarter. The economy is entering its eighth
year of more than 8% real growth, and inflation and trade deficits are still
under control. Earnings growth is slowing, however, and much Malaysian
investment will be directed at infrastructure rather than export capacity.
Adequate infrastructure is crucial to long-term growth, but the near-term
outlook is somewhat cloudy. We sold GRANITE and GOLDEN PLUS because of delays in
their China projects, and added CHEMICAL COMPANY OF MALAYSIA and life insurer
MALAYSIAN ASSURANCE ALLIANCE because of management's commitment to exploiting a
fast-growing market.

     INDONESIA and the PHILIPPINES suffered from the Mexican crisis as 
investors tried to anticipate the next currency collapse. The Philippine peso 
and the Indonesian rupiah declined against the dollar because speculators 
focused on their emerging market status. However, both countries' debt ratios 
are satisfactory, and the speculators have turned

elsewhere. We took advantage of market weakness here by adding to PHILIPPINE 
LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONE.

     In AUSTRALIA, current account and budget deficits both pose a problem. 
We cut holdings in cyclical stocks, including WEST AUSTRALIAN NEWSPAPERS, and 
bought defensive stocks such as CROWN LIMITED. Despite a slight deterioration 
in NEW ZEALAND'S current account and some signs of economic slowing, the 
overall outlook is more attractive. Substantial government surpluses over the 
next few years will be used to cut debt first and then taxes. We trimmed our 
position in WHITCOULLS GROUP (book publishing and retailing) and SKELLERUP 
GROUP (a conglomerate).

     SINGAPORE remains in superb shape. GDP growth exceeded 10% in 1994 and 
the current account shows a substantial surplus with inflation a modest 2.5%. 
Earnings were generally favorable, notably in the banking and property 
sectors. We reduced our exposure to the hotel industry with sales of REPUBLIC 
HOTELS & RESORTS and MARCO POLO DEVELOPMENT since earnings growth is likely 
to be lower than forecast.

JAPAN

The quarter was particularly disappointing for small Japanese companies. 
After four years of marking time, the economy finally began to recover, 
interest rates stabilized, and yet the

markets fell sharply. It is easy to blame this on the Kobe earthquake or the 
impact of the yen's strength on corporate profits. However, both are 
subordinate to the poor supply/demand picture. Corporations have been net 
sellers of equities for a record 54 months, and the banks have also been 
eager to book stock market profits to prop up weak balance sheets. At the 
same time, both domestic and foreign demand for Japanese stocks declined as 
buyers turned to other markets.

     The major focus is now on valuation levels. On the positive side, the 
price/cash flow multiple has fallen to 8.1, the price/book value ratio to 2.1 
(both lower than in the U.S. market), and dividend yields are attractive. On 
the other hand, returns on equity are low and price/earnings multiples high. 
The overall picture remains cloudy.

     The dual impact of the earthquake and the strong yen could slow economic 
growth but is not likely to abort it. Before the yen's most recent advance, 
automobile sales were strong. Capital investment looks promising despite the 
need to move some production facilities offshore. Machine tool orders jumped 
48% in the year ended March 31. Industrial production was also up strongly 
and monetary growth has recently picked up. Inflation is low, dropping the 
long bond yield down to 3.2%. These conditions are usually ideal for small 
company stocks, so we will carefully monitor developments in this area.

EUROPE 

Small-company stocks fared poorly in Europe as currency turbulence, interest 
rate uncertainty, and volatile markets spurred investors toward blue chip 
stocks. Even as small companies report strong earnings, investors remain 
nervous. However, we are confident that a widespread earnings recovery will 
lead to renewed strong performance of smaller company shares in the second 
half of 1995.

     In the U.K., earnings have been generally satisfactory. Consumer demand 
is restrained, which should keep a lid on inflation. We bought shares of 
TAYLOR NELSON, a leader in market research with an enviable balance sheet and 
earnings record, and sold our 

2

position in the bus company STAGECOACH, whose growth is slowing.

     January was excellent for SWEDISH small companies, rewarding the fund to 
some extent because of our position there. In NORWAY, the dollar's weakness 
against the kroner was a negative factor since most companies rely on exports 
to the U.S. However, we remain optimistic about the health of the economy, 
now enjoying its fifth year of steady growth and low inflation. We bought a
position in TOMRA SYSTEMS, which makes recycling equipment, and in SENSONOR, the
world leader in airbag sensors.

     GERMANY has been hurt somewhat by its strong currency. Although the 
powerful mark will help offset the inflationary consequences of a high wage 
settlement, exporters and suppliers will have their margins squeezed in 
export markets. Your fund benefited from a strong performance in dollar terms 
from its 4.2% weighting here.

     ITALY'S currency has been weak and there is a lack of confidence in the 
government owing to the high level of public debt. Our Italian holdings are 
almost exclusively export-oriented, so currency weakness should boost 
earnings. With the presidential election in FRANCE now over, stocks have 
responded positively, rallying sharply after the end of the quarter.

LATIN AMERICA 

The collapse of the MEXICAN peso and stock market triggered a sell-off 
throughout the region. However, support from the U.S. government and other 
measures arrested the decline. Mexico has set ambitious goals for cutting 
government spending, raising taxes, and shoring up the banking system. In a 
still volatile environment, we feel it is too early to add to holdings that 
would be vulnerable to a recession and are focusing instead on stocks we 
consider more resilient, such as EMPAQUES PONDEROSA, which exports packaging 
materials to the U.S., GRUPO FERNANDEZ EDITORES, an educational publisher, 
and beverage company JUGOS DEL VALLE.

    The problems in Mexico threatened to sweep away four years of hard work 
in ARGENTINA. However, Finance Minister Cavallo's willingness to link the 
economy to the dollar rather than devalue the currency, along with his 
successful negotiation of an international aid package, steadied confidence and
halted the slide in reserves. As in Mexico, the cost of higher interest rates
and taxes to maintain this confidence will hurt the economy this year. While we
are cautious in our outlook for small-company stocks, we added to our position
in the electric utility CENTRAL PUERTO, whose stock had fallen sharply and
appeared well valued.

     We are more optimistic about BRAZIL, even though stocks were hurt in the 
quarter by the trade deficit, initial lack of progress on the government's 
reform package, and fears of rising inflation. While progress will be slow, 
we believe the gloom is overdone. The economy is booming and the new 
government's commitment to vital reforms is strong. Brazil is heavily 
weighted in your portfolio, with an emphasis on well-managed, fast-growing 
smaller companies. We initiated a position in the department store retailer 
LOJAS RENNER.

INVESTMENT POLICY AND OUTLOOK

Despite the year's disappointing start, we maintain a positive outlook on 
international markets for the rest of 1995. Economic activity is rising in 
most regions, underpinning strong earnings growth. Stock valuations appear 
generally more attractive, particularly in several less developed markets.

     The mixture of currency volatility, rising interest rates, and worry 
about emerging markets created a hostile environment for small-company 
investors during the past six months. However, renewed stability should 
enable smaller companies to report stronger earnings in the months ahead. We 
intend to pursue an investment policy of deemphasizing Japan, and focusing 
instead on Continental Europe, Southeast Asia, and Latin America, which 
currently enjoy faster growth and offer better stock valuations.

                                                /s/ Martin G. Wade

T. Rowe Price International Discovery Fund / April 30, 1995 (Unaudited)

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 - Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. 
dollars at the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. 
Purchases and sales of securities and income and expenses are translated into 
U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the dates of such 
transactions. The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on realized and 
unrealized security gains and losses is reflected as a component of such 
gains and 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 and may differ from those determined in accordance with 
generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Consistent with its investment objective, the fund engages in the following 
practices to manage exposure to certain risks and enhance performance. The 
investment objective, policies, program, risk factors, and following 
practices of the fund are described more fully in the fund's Prospectus and 
Statement of Additional Information.

A) Emerging Markets - At April 30, 1995, the fund held 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 $83,571,000 and $133,367,000, 
respectively, for the six months ended April 30, 1995. 

NOTE 3 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

No provision for federal income taxes is required since the fund intends to 
continue to qualify as

                                                                              17

a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income.

     At April 30, 1995, the aggregate cost of investments for federal income 
tax and financial reporting purposes was $400,680,000 and net unrealized loss 
aggregated $25,446,000, of which $37,506,000 related to appreciated 
investments and $62,952,000 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, of which 
$352,000 was payable at April 30, 1995. The fee is computed daily and paid 
monthly, and consists 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. At April 30, 1995, and 
for the six months then ended, the effective annual Group Fee rate was 0.34%. 
The fund pays a pro rata share of the Group Fee based on the ratio of its 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 cause the 
fund's ratio of expenses to average net assets to exceed 1.50%. Thereafter 
through December 31, 1995, the fund is required to reimburse the Manager for 
these expenses, provided that average net assets have grown or expenses have 
declined sufficiently to allow reimbursement without causing the fund's ratio 
of expenses to average net assets to exceed 1.50%. Pursuant to this and a 
previous agreement, $93,000 of unaccrued fees were repaid during the six 
months ended April 30, 1995. Pursuant to a previous agreement, $325,000 of 
unaccrued fees from 1991-1992 were permanently waived at December 31, 1994. 
Additionally, $53,000 of unaccrued fees from the ten months ended October 31, 
1993 are subject to reimbursement through December 31, 1995.

     In addition, the fund has entered into agreements with Price Associates 
and two wholly owned subsidiaries of Price Associates, pursuant to which the 
fund receives certain other services. Price Associates computes the daily 
share price and maintains the financial records of the fund. T. Rowe Price 
Services, Inc. (TRPS) is the fund's transfer and dividend disbursing agent and 
provides shareholder and administrative services to the fund. T. Rowe Price 
Retirement Plan Services, Inc. provides subaccounting and recordkeeping 
services for certain retirement accounts invested in the fund. The fund 
incurred expenses pursuant to these related party agreements totaling approxi-
mately $421,000 for the six months ended April 30, 1995, of which $109,000 was 
payable at period-end.

     During the six months ended April 30, 1995, the fund, in the ordinary 
course of business, paid commissions of $221,000 to, and placed security 
purchase and sale orders aggregating $43,527,000 with, certain affiliates of 
the Manager in connection with the execution of various portfolio 
transactions.
