the differences between financial statement amounts and distributions determined

capital of $1,779,426, an increase in overdistributed net investment income of
$61,053, and a decrease in accumulated net rea ized loss on investments of
$1,840,479. Net assets of the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications.
