SUPPLEMENT TO THE STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
DATED JUNE 21, 1994
On October 27, 1994 a complaint was filed in the Court of Common Pleas
of Philadelphia County against Fidelity Fixed-Income Trust, Fidelity
Management & Research Company, Fidelity Distributors Corporation, and FMR
Corp. The complaint was filed by a shareholder of Spartan
Short-Intermediate Government Fund (the "Fund") and seeks to have the case
certified as a class action on behalf of specified groups of shareholders
of the Fund. The complaint alleges that, in violation of state consumer
protection statutes and federal securities laws, the Fund's Registration
statements failed to disclose adequately the methodology used to calculate
the dollar-weighted average maturity of the Fund's portfolio. The complaint
seeks recision and unspecified monetary damages and attorney's fees, and
such other relief as the Court may grant. The defendants deny the
allegations in the complaint and intend to defend this action
vigorously.
