Re: Withdrawal of Post-Effective Amendment No. 32 to the Registration
Statement under the Securities Act of 1933 of Scudder Income Trust
(Reg. No. 02-91577 and 811-4049)
Dear Ms. Riegel:
Pursuant to Rule 477(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "1933 Act"), Scudder Income Trust (the "Trust") hereby applies to withdraw
Post-Effective Amendment No. 32 to its registration statement under the 1933 Act
that was filed on October 30, 2000 (the "Amendment"). The Amendment was filed
for the purpose of adding new classes of shares to Scudder GNMA Fund, namely
Class A, B and C shares (the "Shares"). At this time, the Trust has determined
that addition of the Shares to Scudder GNMA Fund does not comport with its
immediate business plans. The Trust states that it has never made a public
offering of securities of the Shares; that the Shares are not now nor have they
ever been active; and that the Shares have no assets, known liabilities or
pending claims. The Trust believes that withdrawal of this Amendment would be
consistent with the public interest and the protection of investors.
For you reference, the CIK number for Scudder Income Trust is as
follows: 0000747677. Further, the accession number for Post-Effective Amendment
No. 32 is as follows: 0000088053-00-001192.
Please contact the undersigned at (617) 295-2557 with any questions you
may have concerning the foregoing.
Very truly yours,
