GENERAL MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND, INC.
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to provide you with this report on the General Municipal
Money Market Fund, Inc. For its semi-annual reporting period ended May 31,
1996, your Fund's Class A shares produced an annualized yield of 3.01% and
Class B shares produced an annualized yield of 2.69%. For investors in the
highest Federal income tax bracket, this equates to a taxable equivalent
yield of 4.98% for Class A shares and 4.45% for Class B shares.* Income
dividends of approximately $.015 per share were paid during the period for
Class A shares and approximately $.013 for Class B shares. Assuming the
reinvestment of these dividends and accounting for the effect of compounding,
annualized effective yields of 3.05% and 2.72% were achieved for Class A
shares and Class B shares, respectively.** These dividends were exempt from
Federal personal income taxes.***
THE ECONOMY
Recent economic reports show that the economy continues to recover from
its year-end 1995 pause. Spurred by a surge in consumer and business
spending, the economy grew at a moderate rate of 2.3% during the first
quarter of this year. The Index of Leading Economic Indicators, a major
forecasting index, extended its string of increases for the third consecutive
month in April, the first such three-month advance since late 1993. Despite a
sharp jump in energy prices, inflation remained in check. For the 12 months
ended in May, consumer prices rose 2.9%.
Despite the relatively benign level of inflation, the economy's expansion
has sparked concerns that the Federal Reserve Board could raise short-term
interest rates. So far, the Fed has refrained from tightening monetary
policy, apparently interpreting economic data to mean that the economy
remains on a path of moderate growth unaccompanied by a surge in inflation.
There is now a greater consensus that the Fed will tighten eventually in
order to prevent unacceptable levels of price inflation from coming on the
heels of economic growth.
MARKET/PORTFOLIO ENVIRONMENT
If one were to trace the trend in short-term municipal rates over this
most recent semi-annual period, the direction would mirror closely the
changes in supply and demand conditions. The six-month cycle would reflect:
higher rates at year-end due to December outflows, a precipitous drop in
yields throughout January as cash returned to the market, price
weakness/higher rates in April as investors tapped their money market funds
to pay income taxes, and yield stability in May as market activity settled
into a trading range. These technical influences continue to be the overriding
factor affecting municipal money rates.
These conditions, coupled with policies of the Federal Reserve Board,
provide the framework for our investment strategy - both on a day-to-day
basis and looking ahead over a one-year horizon. During the first few months
of 1996, as a result of uncertainty surrounding potential tax reform,
variable rate demand notes (which represent a significant portion of your
Portfolio's investments) benefited from unusually high yields. While the
concerns were only temporary, they translated, for a time, into a more
attractive after-tax rate of return than was available on taxable instruments
with similar maturities. During this period, the purchase of attractively
yielding commercial paper in the 90-day range also allowed us to capture
returns similar to those on one-year issues without a significant extension
of average maturity - enabling us to wait out a lower yield environment in
anticipation of higher rates.
Opportunity to commit to longer note issues has appeared in recent weeks
and should continue to be available during the summer months as issuers
return to the market with midyear financings. We expect to take advantage of
these buying opportunities as we monitor potential Fed activity and any other
significant changes in the municipal money market. All new investments will
continue to meet the high credit quality standards which we require and to
provide a significant level of liquidity, commensurate with the needs of your
Fund.
Included in this report is a series of detailed statements about your
Fund's holdings and its financial condition. We hope they are informative.
Please know that we greatly appreciate your continued confidence in the Fund
and in The Dreyfus Corporation.
Sincerely,
[Richard J. Moynihan signature logo]

distributor of the Fund's shares, which are sold to the public without a
sales load. Class A shares and Class B shares are identical except as to the
services offered to and the expenses borne by each class and certain voting
rights. Class B shares are subject to a Distribution Plan adopted pursuant to
Rule 12b-1 under the Act and, in addition, Class B shares are charged
directly for sub-accounting services provided by service agents at an annual
rate of .05% of the value of the average daily net assets of Class B.
It is the Fund's policy to maintain a continuous net asset value per
share of $1.00; the Fund has adopted certain investment, portfolio valuation
and dividend and distribution policies to enable it to do so. There is no
assurance, however, that the Fund will be able to maintain a stable net asset
value of $1.00.
(A) PORTFOLIO VALUATION: Investments are valued at amortized cost, which
has been determined by the Fund's Board of Directors to represent the fair
value of the Fund's investments.
(B) SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME: Securities
transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest income, adjusted
for amortization of premiums and original issue discounts on investments, is
earned from settlement date and recognized on the accrual basis. Realized
gain and loss from securities transactions are recorded on the identified
cost basis.
(C) DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS: It is the policy of the Fund to declare
dividends daily from investment income-net. Such dividends are paid monthly.
Dividends from net realized capital gain are normally declared and paid
annually, but the Fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to
comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. To
the extent that net realized capital gain can be offset by capital loss
carryovers, it is the policy of the Fund not to distribute such gain.
(D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the policy of the Fund to continue to
qualify as a regulated investment company, which can distribute tax exempt
dividends, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code, and to make distributions of income and net realized capital
gain sufficient to relieve it from substantially all Federal income and
excise taxes.
The Fund has an unused capital loss carryover of approximately $13,000
available for Federal income tax purposes to be applied against future net
securities profits, if any, realized subsequent to November 30, 1995. If not
applied, $2,800 of the carryover expires in fiscal 1998 and $10,200 expires
in fiscal 2003.
As a result of the expiration of a prior year capital loss carryover,
$277,409 was reclassified from accumulated net realized loss to additional
paid in capital.
At May 31, 1996, the cost of investments for Federal income tax purposes
was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see
the Statement of Investments).

(A) Pursuant to a management agreement ("Agreement") with the Manager,
the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .50 of 1% of the value
of the Fund's average daily net assets and is payable monthly. The Agreement
provides for an expense reimbursement from the Manager should the Fund's
aggregate expenses, exclusive of taxes, brokerage, interest on borrowings and
extraordinary expenses, exceed 1-1/2% of the average value of the Fund's net
assets for any full fiscal year. There was no expense reimbursement for the

Service Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, an amount not
to exceed an annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the Fund's average
daily net assets of Class A for certain allocated expenses of providing
personal services and/or maintaining shareholder accounts. The services
provided may include personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such
as answering shareholder inquiries regarding the Fund and providing reports
and other information, and services related to the maintenance of shareholder
accounts. During the six months ended May 31, 1996, the Fund was charged an
aggregate of $27,772 pursuant to the Class A Shareholder Services Plan.
Pursuant to the Fund's Shareholder Services Plan, with respect to Class B
("Class B Shareholder Services Plan"), the Fund pays the Distributor, at an

Class B shares for servicing shareholder accounts. The services provided may
include personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such as answering
shareholder inquiries regarding the Fund and providing reports and other
information, and services related to the maintenance of shareholder accounts.
The Distributor may make payments to Service Agents (a securities dealer,
financial institution or other industry professional) in respect of their
services. The Distributor determines the amounts to be paid to Service
Agents.
The Manager has undertaken through November 30, 1996, that if the
aggregate expenses of Class B of the Fund, (exclusive of certain expenses as
described above) exceed .85 of 1% the value of the average daily net assets
of Class B, the Manager will reimburse the expenses of the Fund under the
Class B Shareholder Services Plan relating to Class B to the extent of any
excess expense and up to the full fee payable under such Plan. During the six
months ended May 31, 1996, $14,061 was charged to the Fund pursuant to the
Class B Shareholder Services Plan, all of which was reimbursed by the
Manager.
The Fund compensates Dreyfus Transfer, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Manager, under a transfer agency agreement for providing personnel and
facilities to perform transfer agency services for the Fund. Such
compensation amounted to $31,967 during the six months ended May 31, 1996.
(D) Each director who is not an "affiliated person" as defined in the Act
receives from the Fund an annual fee of $2,500 and an attendance fee of $500
per meeting. The Chairman of the Board receives an additional 25% of such
compensation.

REVIEW REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS
GENERAL MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND, INC.
We have reviewed the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
General Municipal Money Market Fund, Inc., including the statement of
investments, as of May 31, 1996, and the related statements of operations and
changes in net assets and financial highlights for the six month period ended
May 31, 1996. These financial statements and financial highlights are the
responsibility of the Fund's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures
to financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial
and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit
conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, which
will be performed for the full year with the objective of expressing an
opinion regarding the financial statements and financial highlights taken as
a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the interim financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards, the statement of changes in net assets for the year ended
November 30, 1995 and financial highlights for each of the five years in the
period ended November 30, 1995 and in our report dated January 5, 1996, we
expressed an unqualified opinion on such statement of changes in net assets
and financial highlights.
