Supplement to Prospectus dated February 1, 1995
The shareholders of each Fund have approved a change to the
Fund's fundamental investment policy. Effective immediately,
each Fund may invest without limit in municipal obligations the
interest on which is a tax preference item under the federal
alternative minimum tax. In connection with this change, each
Fund and each Portfolio have changed the phrase "Tax Free" in
their names to "Municipals." Also, the first sentence of the
first paragraph under "How the Funds and the Portfolios Invest
their Assets" is replaced with the following:
Each Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by
investing either directly or indirectly through another
open-end management investment company primarily (i.e., at
least 80% of its net assets during periods of normal market
conditions) in municipal obligations the interest on which
is exempt from regular federal income tax and from the State
taxes that, in accordance with its investment objective, the
Fund seeks to avoid.
