                      Supplement to the Current Prospectus




         The legend on the cover page of the  Prospectus  concerning  the Fund's
limitation  on  investments  in lower  rated  bonds is  hereby  replaced  in its
entirety by the following:

                  The Fund may  invest up to 100% of its  assets in lower  rated
                  bonds,  commonly  known as "junk  bonds," that entail  greater
                  risks,  including  default  risks,  than those found in higher
                  rated  securities.  These bonds may be issued by domestic  and
                  foreign corporate issuers,  as well as by foreign  governments
                  and their political  subdivisions.  Investors should carefully
                  consider  these  risks  before   investing.   See  "Investment
                  Objective  and Policies - Emerging  Market  Securities - Brady
                  Bonds - Corporate Debt Securities - Risk Factors."

                 The date of this Supplement is June 14, 1995.
