similar information found under the heading "FMR and Its Affiliates"
in the "Charter" section on page 63.
John Avery is manager of Advisor Balanced, which he has managed
since September 1997. He also manages another Fidelity fund. Mr. Avery
joined Fidelity as an analyst in 1995. Previously, he was an analyst
for Putman Investments from 1993 to 1994. Mr. Avery received his MBA
from The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania in 1993.
EFFECTIVE DECEMBER 15, 1997, the following information replaces
similar information found under the heading "High Income Municipal
Fund" in "Investment Principles and Risks" on page 68.
MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND seeks high current income that is free from
federal income tax by investing primarily in investment-grade
municipal securities. FMR normally invests so that at least 80% of the
fund's assets is invested in municipal securities whose interest is
free from federal income tax. In addition, FMR may invest all of the
fund's assets in municipal securities issued to finance private
activities. The interest from these securities is a tax preference
item for the purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax.
Although the fund can invest in securities of any maturity, FMR seeks
to manage the fund so that it generally reacts to changes in interest
rates similarly to municipal bonds with maturities between eight and
18 years. As of October 31, 1996, the fund's dollar-weighted average
maturity was approximately 16.4 years.
EFFECTIVE DECEMBER 15, 1997, the following information replaces
similar information found under the heading "Debt Securities" in
"Securities and Investment Practices" on page 69.
Each of Mortgage Securities, Short Fixed-Income, Municipal Income,
Intermediate Municipal Income, Short-Intermediate Municipal Income,
California Municipal Income, and New York Municipal Income normally
invests in investment-grade securities, but reserves the right to
invest up to 5% of its assets in below investment-grade securities. A
security is considered to be investment-grade if it is rated
investment-grade by Moody's, S&P, Duff & Phelps Credit Rating Co.
(Duff & Phelps), or Fitch Investors Service, L.P. (Fitch), or is
unrated but judged by FMR to be of equivalent quality.
