                    SUPPLEMENT TO THE CURRENT PROSPECTUS



         The paragraph under the heading entitled, "Distributions" on page 22 of
the Prospectus is hereby replaced in its entirety by the following:

     The Fund intends to pay  substantially all of its net investment income for
any  calendar  year to its  shareholders  as dividends  on an annual  basis.  In
determining the net investment income available for distributions,  the Fund may
rely on projections of its anticipated net investment income over a longer term,
rather than its actual net investment  income for the period.  The Fund may make
one or more distributions  during the calendar year to its shareholders from any
long-term capital gains, and may also make one or more distributions  during the
calendar year to its shareholders  from short-term  capital gains.  Shareholders
may elect to receive dividends and capital gain  distributions in either cash or
additional  shares of the same class with  respect  to which a  distribution  is
made.  Distribution  paid by the  Fund  with  respect  to  Class A  shares  will
generally  be greater than those paid with respect to Class B and Class C shares
because  expenses  attributable  to Class B and Class C shares will generally be
higher.

                   THE DATE OF THIS SUPPLEMENT IS JUNE 22, 1995.
