                         the caption "U.S.
                         Government/Securities/Treasury Constant
                         Maturities/", decompounded to a Quarterly
                         Rate, in the Index Maturity with respect to
                         the applicable Interest Determination Date. 
                         If the H.15(519) is no longer published, the
                         Constant Maturity Treasury Rate shall be the
                         rate that was set forth on Telerate Page
                         7055, or its successor page (as determined by
                         the Treasury Rate Determination Agent), on
                         the applicable Interest Determination Date
                         opposite the applicable Index Maturity.  If
                         no such rate is set forth, then the Constant
                         Maturity Treasury Rate for such Interest
                         Reset Date shall be established by the
                         Treasury Rate Determination Agent as follows. 
                         The Treasury Rate Determination Agent will
                         contact the Federal Reserve Board and request
                         the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate, in the
                         applicable Index Maturity, for the Interest
                         Reset Date.  If the Federal Reserve Board
                         does not provide such information, then the
                         Constant Maturity Treasury Rate for such
                         Interest Reset Date will be the arithmetic
                         mean of quotations reported by three leading
                         U.S. government securities dealers (one of
                         which may be the Treasury Rate Determination
                         Agent), according to their written records,
                         with reference to the 3:00 p.m. (New York
                         City time) Interest Rate Determination Date
                         closing bid-side yield quotations for the
                         noncallable U.S. Treasury Note that is
                         nearest in maturity to the Index Maturity,
                         but not less than exactly the Index Maturity
                         and for the noncallable U.S. Treasury Note
                         that is nearest in maturity to the Index
                         Maturity, but not more than exactly the Index
                         Maturity.  The Treasury Rate Determination
                         Agent shall calculate the Constant Maturity
                         Treasury Rate by interpolating to the Index
                         Maturity based on an Actual/Actual day count
                         basis, the yield on the two Treasury Notes
                         selected.  If the Treasury Rate Determination
                         Agent cannot obtain three such adjusted
                         quotations, the Constant Maturity Treasury
                         Rate for such Interest Reset Date will be the
                         arithmetic mean of all such quotations, or if
                         only one such quotation is obtained, such
                         quotation, obtained by the Treasury Rate
                         Determination Agent.  In all events, the
                         Treasury Rate Determination Agent shall
                         continue polling dealers until at least one
                         adjusted yield quotation can be determined.
                         In no event will the coupon be less than
                         zero. Interest will be calculated on the
                         basis of a year of 12 30-day months.

United States Taxation

     The following discussion of the United States federal income tax
consequences of the ownership of the Notes supplements, and to the
extent inconsistent with, replaces the discussion under the caption
"United States Taxation" in the Prospectus Supplement dated August 19,
1992. Terms used and not defined herein have the same meanings as in
the Prospectus Supplement.

     This discussion is based on regulations (the "Regulations") under
the original issue discount and related provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Regulations will apply to debt
instruments issued on or after April 4, 1994, but generally taxpayers
may rely on the Regulations for debt instruments issued on or after
December 21, 1992.

     Under the Regulations the Notes will be treated as variable rate
debt instruments.  Interest on a Note will be taxable to a beneficial
owner who or that is a United States Holder as ordinary income at the
time it is received or accrued, depending on the holder's method of
accounting for tax purposes.

     The current "backup withholding" rate, if applicable, is 31%.

Plan of Distribution

     The Selling Agent has purchased the Notes as principal in this
transaction for resale to one or more investors at varying prices
related to prevailing market conditions at the time or times of resale
as determined by the Selling Agent.
