CLASS C OCTOBER 31, 1997 PROSPECTUS
The following information replaces similar information found in "Who
May Want to Invest" on page 4.
If you prefer not to pay a front-end sales charge, you should consider
Class B or Class C shares. While Class B and Class C shares are
subject to higher ongoing costs than Class A or Class T shares, in
general because of their higher 12b-1 fees, Class B and Class C shares
are sold with a CDSC instead of a front-end sales charge so your
entire purchase amount is immediately invested. In general, Class B
shares have higher costs than Class C shares over a short holding
period because Class B shares have a higher CDSC that declines over
six years, and Class B shares have lower costs than Class C shares
over a longer period because Class B shares convert to Class A shares
after seven years. Please note that purchase amounts of more than
$250,000 will not be accepted for Class B shares, that purchase
amounts of more than $1,000,000 generally will not be accepted for
Class C shares, and that Class A or Class T shares may have lower
costs for investments that qualify for a front-end sales charge
reduction or waiver. See "How to Buy Shares," page 36, for more
information on the maximum purchase amount for Class C shares. If you
sell your Class B shares within six years, you will normally pay a
CDSC that varies depending on how long you have held your shares. If
you sell your Class C shares within one year, you will normally pay a
1.00% CDSC. See "Transaction Details," page 43, for CDSC schedules and
related information. Class B shares will automatically convert to
Class A shares after a holding period of seven years. Class C shares
do not convert to another class of shares. See "Transaction Details,"
page 43, for conversion information.

A FRONT-END SALES CHARGE WILL NOT APPLY TO THE FOLLOWING CLASS T
SHARES:
1. Purchased for an insurance company separate account used to fund
annuity contracts for employee benefit plans;
2. Purchased by a trust institution or bank trust department for a

funds. (Distributions other than those transferred to an IRA account
must be transferred directly into a Fidelity account.);
7. Purchased for any state, county, or city, or any governmental
instrumentality, department, authority or agency;
8. Purchased with redemption proceeds from other mutual fund complexes
on which you have previously paid a front-end sales charge or CDSC;

fund or a current or retired officer, director or regular employee of
FMR Corp. or FIL or their direct or indirect subsidiaries (a Fidelity

Fidelity trustee or employee acting as custodian for a minor child, or
a person acting as trustee of a trust for the sole benefit of the

for purposes of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code);
13. Purchased with distributions of income, principal, and capital

14. Purchased prior to December 31, 1998 by shareholders who have
closed their Class T Municipal Bond, Class T California Municipal
Income, or Class T New York Municipal Income accounts prior to
December 31, 1997. This waiver is limited to purchases of up to
$10,000; shareholders are entitled to this waiver after the original
load waiver certificate is received by FIIOC.
You must notify FDC in advance if you qualify for a front-end sales
charge waiver. Employee benefit plan investors must meet additional
requirements specified in the funds' SAI.
If you are investing through an insurance company separate account, if
you are investing through a trust department, if you are investing
through an account managed by a broker-dealer, or if you have
authorized an investment adviser to make investment decisions for you,
you may qualify to purchase Class A shares without a sales charge (as
described in (1), (2), (3) and (4) on the previous page), Class T
shares without a sales charge (as described in (1), (2), (3) and (4)
on the previous page and above), or Institutional Class shares.
Because Institutional Class shares have no sales charge, and do not
pay a 12b-1 fee, Institutional Class shares are expected to have a
higher total return than Class A, Class T, Class B, and Class C
shares. Contact your investment professional to discuss if you
qualify.
THE CDSC ON CLASS B AND CLASS C SHARES MAY BE WAIVED:
1. In cases of disability or death, provided that the shares are
redeemed within one year following the death or the initial
determination of disability;
2. In connection with a total or partial redemption related to certain
distributions from retirement plans or accounts at age 701/2, which
are permitted without penalty pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code;
3. In connection with redemptions through the Fidelity Advisor
Systematic Withdrawal Program; or
4. (APPLICABLE TO CLASS C ONLY) In connection with any redemptions

THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION REPLACES THE SIMILAR INFORMATION FOUND UNDER
THE HEADING "PERFORMANCE" ON PAGE 40.
TOTAL RETURN CALCULATIONS. Total returns quoted in
advertising reflect all aspects of a class's return, including the
effect of reinvesting dividends and capital gain distributions, and
any change in a class's NAV over a stated period. A class's total
return may be calculated by using the performance data of a previously
existing class prior to the date that shares of the new class
initially are issued, adjusted to reflect differences in sales charges
but not 12b-1 fees. Average annual total returns are calculated by
determining the growth or decline in value of a hypothetical
historical investment in the class over a stated period, and then
calculating the annually compounded percentage rate that would have
produced the same result if the rate of growth or decline in value had
been constant over the period. For example, a cumulative total return
of 100% over ten years would produce an average annual total return of
7.18%, which is the steady annual rate of return that would equal 100%
growth on a compounded basis in ten years. Average annual total
returns covering periods of less than one year are calculated by
determining a class's total return for the period, extending that
return for a full year (assuming that return remains constant over the
year), and quoting the result as an annual return. While average
annual total returns are a convenient means of comparing investment
alternatives, investors should realize that a class's performance is
not constant over time, but changes from year to year, and that
average annual total returns represent averaged figures as opposed to
the actual year-to-year performance of the class.
In addition to average annual total returns, a class may quote
unaveraged or cumulative total returns reflecting the simple change in
value of an investment over a stated period. Average annual and
cumulative total returns may be quoted as a percentage or as a dollar
amount, and may be calculated for a single investment, a series of
investments, or a series of redemptions, over any time period. Total
returns may be broken down into their components of income and capital
(including capital gains and changes in share price) in order to
illustrate the relationship of these factors and their contributions
to total return. Total returns may be quoted on a before-tax or
after-tax basis and may be quoted with or without taking a class's
maximum sales charge into account and may or may not include the
effect of a fund's 1.00% short-term trading fee on shares held less
than 60 days. Excluding a class's sales charge or short-term trading
fee from a total return calculation produces a higher total return
figure. Total returns, yields, and other performance information may
be quoted numerically or in a table, graph, or similar
illustration.
