Dear Oppenheimer Total Return Fund Shareholder:

       Due to an oversight, the enclosed proxy statement and ballot were not
mailed to you and other Periodic Investment Plan Participants of the Fund. 
To give you an opportunity to vote on these important items concerning
your Fund, the shareholder meeting, originally scheduled for June 20,
1994, has been adjourned until August 1, 1994 at 10:00 AM, Denver time,
3410 South Galena Street, Denver, Colorado.

       Your Board of Directors, which represents you in matters regarding
your Fund, recommends approval of the items now being submitted to
shareholders for a vote.  It is important that you return the proxy ballot
so that First Interstate Bank of Denver, N.A., as custodian of your shares
held under the Fund's Periodic Investment Plan, may vote your shares as
you direct.  The Custodian for the Planholders will vote all of the shares
owned by Planholders on the election of Directors and each Proposal in
proportion to the voting instructions it receives from Planholders who
return voting instructions.

How do you vote?

       No matter how large or small your investment, your vote is important,
so please review the proxy statement carefully.  To cast your vote, simply
mark, sign and date the enclosed ballot and return it in the postage-paid
envelope so it is received by August 1, 1994.

What are the proposals?

--     Election of Directors.  The current members of the Board of Directors
       have been nominated to continue in office.  The names of the
       directors and a brief statement of their background is included for
       your information.

--     Ratification of Auditors.  Your approval is required on the
       appointment of the independent auditing firm that reviews the
       financial statements of your Fund.

--     Approval of New Class A Service Plan.  Previously, a service plan was
       adopted reimbursing the Fund's Distributor for the cost of servicing
       and maintaining accounts which hold Class A shares purchased on or
       after April 1, 1988.  Approval of this proposal will allow the Plan
       to be amended to include Class A shares purchased prior to April 1,
       1988.

       If you have questions regarding the proposals, please contact your
financial advisor or call us at 1-800-525-7048.
                                                      Sincerely,

P.S.  Casting your vote is quick and easy, so please take a moment to
complete the ballot.
