SEMIANNUAL REPORT -- OCTOBER 15, 1996
DEAR SHAREHOLDER,
We are pleased to present you with the semiannual report for PaineWebber Money
Market Fund (the 'Fund') for the six months ended August 31, 1996.
GENERAL MARKET OVERVIEW
In general, after exceptional performance during most of 1995, the first half of
1996 was difficult for fixed income investors. Accelerating economic growth,
reflected in strong employment, retail sales and investment spending numbers, as
well as a surprisingly robust housing sector, combined to convince the market
that, contrary to expectations, the Fed would move to tighten interest rates.
The change in sentiment was clearly reflected in the 30-year U.S. Treasury bond,
the benchmark of bond market performance, as its yield increased from 5.95% on
December 29, 1995, to 6.75% by August 31, 1996. When bond yields increase, bond
prices decrease. Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve's Open Market Committee decided
to keep monetary policy unchanged at the March, May and July 1996 meetings; the
Fed's decision to do so suggested that officials did not foresee a recession or
accelerating inflation.
PORTFOLIO REVIEW
PaineWebber Money Market Fund's current yields for Class A, B and C shares for
the seven-day period ended August 31, 1996 were 4.06%, 3.54% and 3.44%,
respectively. The Fund had a weighted average maturity of 63 days as of
August 31, 1996.
Going forward, the Fund expects to maintain a neutral weighted average maturity
as short-term rates find stability. The Fund's investments are limited to
shorter-term money market instruments such as commercial paper, medium-term
notes, U.S. Treasuries, U.S. government agencies, banker acceptances and
certificates of deposit. Investment decisions in the Fund will continue to be
dominated by credit quality and liquidity. Although we are
<PAGE>
PORTFOLIO REVIEW
interested in maintaining higher yields, we will not do so by sacrificing the
Fund's emphasis on security, quality and liquidity.
We anticipate continued market volatility, and view any declines that occur as a
result of this volatility as opportunities to purchase securities. Furthermore,
with elections nearing, we believe that the Federal Reserve Board appears
confident with its current stance. However, any signs of movement in economic
figures could spur the Fed to shift its present position, further adding to
market instability.
Our ultimate objective in managing your investments is to help you successfully
meet your financial goals. We thank you for your continued support and welcome
any comments or questions you may have.
Sincerely,

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
PAINEWEBBER
ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PaineWebber Master Series, Inc. ('Master Series') was
incorporated in Maryland on October 29, 1985 and is registered
with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end, diversified
series investment company which currently offers two series of
shares: PaineWebber Money Market Fund ('Fund') and PaineWebber
Balanced Fund. The financial statements for PaineWebber Balanced
Fund are not included herein.
The Fund offers Class A, Class B and Class C shares. Each class
represents interest in the same assets of the Fund and the
classes are identical except for differences in their sales
charge structure, ongoing service and distribution charges and
certain transfer agency expenses. In addition, Class B shares
automatically convert to Class A shares approximately six years
after initial issuance. All classes of shares have equal voting
privileges, except that each class has exclusive voting rights
with respect to its distribution plan. All classes of shares may
be obtained only through an exchange of shares of the
corresponding class of other PaineWebber mutual funds.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles requires Fund
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following
is a summary of significant accounting policies:
Valuation and Accounting for Investments--Investments are valued
at amortized cost which approximates market value. Investment
transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and
losses from investment transactions are calculated using the
identified cost method. Interest income is recorded on an
accrual basis. Premiums are amortized and discounts are accreted
as adjustments to interest income and the identified cost of
investments.
Repurchase Agreements--The Fund's custodian takes possession of
the collateral pledged for investments in repurchase agreements.
The underlying collateral is valued daily on a mark-to-market
basis to ensure that the value, including accrued interest, is
at least equal to the repurchase price. In the event of default
of the obligation to repurchase, the Fund has the right to
liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction
of the obligation. Under certain circumstances, in the event of
default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement,
realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to
legal proceedings. The Fund may participate in joint repurchase
agreement transactions with other funds managed by Mitchell
Hutchins Asset Management Inc. ('Mitchell Hutchins'), a wholly
owned subsidiary of PaineWebber and investment adviser and
administrator of the Fund.
Net Investment Income and Investment Transactions--Income and
expenses (excluding class-specific expenses) are allocated
proportionately to each class of shares based upon the relative
net asset value of dividend-eligible shares of each class at the
beginning of the day (after adjusting for current capital share
activity of the respective classes). Realized and unrealized
gains and losses are allocated proportionately to each class of
shares based upon the relative value of shares outstanding at
the beginning of the day (after adjusting for current capital
share activity of the respective classes). Class-specific
expenses are charged directly to the applicable class of shares.
8
<PAGE>
PAINEWEBBER
Dividends and Distributions--Dividends and distributions to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and
distributions are determined in accordance with federal income
tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These 'book/tax' differences are either
considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these
differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are
reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal
tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require
reclassification.
CONCENTRATION OF RISK
The ability of the issuers of the debt securities held by the
Fund to meet their obligations may be affected by economic
developments, including those particular to a specific industry
or region.
INVESTMENT ADVISER AND ADMINISTRATOR
The Board of Directors of Master Series has approved an
Investment Advisory and Administration Contract ('Advisory
Contract') with Mitchell Hutchins, under which Mitchell Hutchins
serves as investment adviser and administrator of the Fund. In
accordance with the Advisory Contract, the Fund pays Mitchell
Hutchins an investment advisory and administration fee, which is
accrued daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 0.50% of
the Fund's average daily net assets. At August 31, 1996, the
Fund owed Mitchell Hutchins $17,850 for investment advisory and
administration fees.
DISTRIBUTION PLANS
Mitchell Hutchins is the distributor of the Fund's shares and
has appointed PaineWebber as the exclusive dealer for the sale
of those shares. Under separate plans of service/distribution
pertaining to the Class A, Class B and Class C shares, the Fund
pays Mitchell Hutchins monthly service fees at the annual rate
of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each class of shares
and monthly distribution fees at an annual rate of 0.50% of the
average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares. At
August 31, 1996, the Fund owed Mitchell Hutchins $20,556 in
service and distribution fees.
Mitchell Hutchins also receives the proceeds of the contingent
deferred sales charges paid upon certain redemptions of Class A,
Class B and Class C shares. Mitchell Hutchins has informed the
Fund that for the six months ended August 31, 1996, it earned
$15,066 in contingent deferred sales charges.
TRANSFER AGENCY SERVICE FEES
The Fund pays PaineWebber an annual fee of $4.00 per active
PaineWebber shareholder account for certain services not
provided by the Fund's transfer agent. For these services for
the six months ended August 31, 1996, PaineWebber earned $6,958
in service fees. At August 31, 1996, the Fund owed PaineWebber
$1,106 for such fees.
OTHER LIABILITIES
At August 31, 1996, the amounts payable for Fund shares
repurchased and dividends payable aggregated $62,022 and
$101,862, respectively.

</TABLE>
FEDERAL TAX STATUS
The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its taxable
income and to comply with the other requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies.
Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required.
In addition, by distributing during each calendar year
substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains
and certain other amounts, if any, the Fund intends not to be
subject to a federal excise tax.
At February 29, 1996, the Fund had capital loss carryforwards of
$18,780 available as a reduction, to the extent provided in the
regulations, of future net realized gains, which will expire
between February 28, 1999 and February 28, 2003. To the extent
that such losses are used to offset future capital gains, it is
probable that the gains so offset will not be distributed.
