TERMS TO KNOW
CONTRARIAN An investor who decides which securities to buy and sell by going
against the crowd. Contrarians operate on the premise that when stocks are
popular they are overbought and when they are unpopular they are oversold.
Dreman's contrarian philosophy stresses buying only stocks which it believes
present good value when they are out of favor.
INDEX An unmanaged group of stocks that is considered representative of the
stock or bond markets. An index does not take into account any fees or expenses
related to the individual securities that it tracks. However, for performance
comparisons, the index is adjusted to reflect reinvestment of dividends
of the securities in the index.
MARKET CAPITALIZATION Capitalization is a measure of the size of a publicly
traded company, as determined by multiplying the current price by the number
of shares outstanding. The market capitalization of a company has bearing on
its perceived earnings potential and risk. Small capitalization companies (less
than $1 billion) may present the potential for greater growth than larger, more
established companies. On the other hand, the stock of small cap companies may
be expected to be more volatile and therefore greater risk to capital.
PRICE/EARNINGS MULTIPLE A company's stock price divided by its earnings for the
past four quarters, also referred to as its P/E.
GROWTH STOCK The stock of a company whose earnings growth has consistently
exceeded the growth rate of the overall market and whose growth is expected to
continue or accelerate.
VALUE STOCK The stock of a company that is out of favor with investors because
the market underestimates its value or overlooks its potential. Stocks can
become undervalued as a result of overreaction by investors to unfavorable news
about a company, industry or the stock market in general. Or they can become
undervalued as a result of a market decline, poor economic conditions, tax-loss
selling or actual or anticipated unfavorable developments affecting the company.
VOLATILITY Characteristic of a security, commodity or market to rise or fall
sharply in price within a short period of time. A stock may be volatile because
the outlook for the company is particularly uncertain or because of various
other reasons.

DEAR SHAREHOLDER,
We have just completed a period of some discomfort for bond and stock market
traders. Concerns about rising interest rates, the possibility of higher price
inflation and Federal Reserve tightening of credit contributed to considerable
market volatility. But while the professional investors tend to fret over every
economic release, individuals who invest in mutual funds for the long term were
wise to stay the course -- at least until the direction of the economy became
clearer. Indeed, several recent economic measures are quite reassuring and argue
in favor of a continued healthy economy with low inflation.
The economy expanded at a 4.2% annual rate in the second quarter, the fastest
pace since the second quarter of 1994. This robust growth is welcome in general
but has tended to roil markets, which fear strong growth will lead to
overheating and inflationary pressures. So far, however, such fears have been
largely unwarranted. With the exception of food prices, whose increases were
weather-related, there have been no significant signs of inflationary pressures.
As it has so often recently, the economy is in the process of slowing itself
down. While the Federal Reserve Board stands by ready to attempt to moderate

expansion or credit crunch have a significant impact on mutual fund
performance.
The following are some significant economic guideposts and their investment
rationale that may help your investment decision-making. The 10-year Treasury

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
economic growth with either interest rate cuts or increases, such intervention
can run the risk of going too far in one direction. It appears that our economy
today is self-regulating.
Based on these snapshots of the economy, then, we look for a relatively calmer
second half of 1996. Our forecast calls for growth to slow down in the third and
fourth quarters, to result in an advance of about 2.5% for the entire year.
Assuming that bond and stock market investors concur that there is no chance of
an overheating economy or significantly rising interest rates, the markets
should relax, as well.
What was the meaning of the market volatility that we experienced in May, June
and July? Investors were nervous about the broad economy, and some disappointing
earnings reports made them pessimistic. Yet, the markets performed the way that
history suggests they should: an overall correction in the stock market was
accentuated in technology and small capitalization stocks -- the industry
sectors whose performance tends to be the most volatile. Once the stock market
corrected, the bond market rallied. Finally, while not producing spectacular
results, international markets provided a stabilizing influence when compared to
U.S. markets.
Our market forecast eight months into the year is not much different from what
we forecasted in January. The bond market, which is climbing back from a decline
this year, may produce a 5% total return in 1996. The stock market, after the
correction is completed, may advance 5% to 10% for the year. Naturally, future
market conditions cannot be predicted with assurance.
In addition, we are projecting that long-term (30-year) interest rates will
hover in the 6.5% to 7.5% range. Short-term interest rates may drop below their
current levels. Finally, we would be surprised if the Federal Reserve Board
moved to adjust interest rates more than 25 basis points either way for the
remainder of the year.
Given the economic environment, we do not look for an upset in the upcoming
presidential election. Much more interesting will be which party wins the most
congressional seats. If the Democrats regain control of Congress, a bond market
selloff could be expected.
While U.S. markets are expected to provide modest returns, we continue to
advocate the benefits of diversification into alternate markets. Many overseas
markets are forecasted to grow at a rate well above our 2.5% growth expectation
for the U.S., and there are many equity and fixed-income opportunities abroad.
The value of the U.S. dollar, always a concern to international investors, will
probably not strengthen much against other currencies for the foreseeable
future.
With that as an economic backdrop, we encourage you to read the following
detailed report of your fund, including an interview with your fund's portfolio
management. Thank you for your continued support. We appreciate the opportunity
to serve your investment needs.
Sincerely,
/s/ Stephen B. Timbers

IN AN INCREASINGLY VOLATILE MARKET, KEMPER-DREMAN SMALL CAP VALUE FUND
POSTED STRONG DOUBLE-DIGIT GAINS THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF 1996. BELOW,
PORTFOLIO CO-MANAGERS STEVE STOKES AND CHRIS BERTELSEN EXPLAIN THAT STOCK
PICKING AND A COMMITMENT TO THE VALUE STYLE OF INVESTING ARE THE KEYS TO THEIR
SUCCESS.
Q HOW DID SMALL CAP STOCKS FARE DURING THE FIRST HALF OF 1996?
A C.B.: Using our benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index,* as a proxy, small caps
were up 10.4% during the six months ended June 30. During the same
period, the Standard and Poor's 500 Stock Index, which is broadly
representative of the large cap market, was up 10.1%. So generally
speaking, small caps marginally outperformed their larger counterparts.
However, with a return of 19.52% for Class A Shares (unadjusted for any
sales charge), Kemper-Dreman Small Cap Value Fund significantly
outperformed both of those indexes. *The Russell 2000 Index is an
unmanaged index generally representative of the market for small domestic
stocks.
Q DOES THE FUND'S STRONG PERFORMANCE REFLECT A BETTER ENVIRONMENT FOR VALUE
STOCKS VERSUS GROWTH STOCKS?
A S.S.: The first six months of this year was a volatile period for all
segments of the stock market, value stocks as well as growth stocks.
And in a volatile market, value stocks do tend to outperform on the
downside. They may take a hit, but not to the extent of the growth stocks.
But I think the real key to our success has been stock picking. We owned
stocks that meaningfully outperformed on the upside.
C.B.: There's no question that the stocks that were appreciating on
momentum--most notably those in the technology sector--really took a
beating. As more and more investors jumped on the bandwagon, valuations
were pushed much higher than the fundamentals could support. Inevitably,
the stock prices will correct to more reasonable valuations. In the case
of technology, as soon as earnings reports began to fall short of
expectations, the market punished them pretty severely. Our exposure to
technology was limited, so that certainly helped the fund as well. These
kinds of stocks are just the opposite of what we look for as value
managers. We look for stocks with strong fundamentals that are
substantially undervalued in the market even though their growth and
earnings are solid.
Q WHAT SECTORS DO YOU FAVOR FOR KEMPER-DREMAN SMALL CAP VALUE FUND?
A S.S.: In terms of sectors, the portfolio tends to be pretty eclectic. Our
process is more "bottom-up," focusing on individual companies and their
particular stories rather than broad plays based on sectors or industries.
That's not to say that the fund isn't diversified. It's just that sectors
aren't a primary focus, unless one is seriously out of
5
<PAGE> 6
PERFORMANCE UPDATE
favor. In that case we'd certainly be looking for opportunities.
Financial stocks have done well for us. These stocks tend to trade at
relatively low price to earnings ("P/E") ratios and offer some yield as well. We
like regional banks, thrifts and consumer financial stocks. Our gaming
positions--most notably Bally Entertainment and Casino Data Systems--have been
strong performers. And we've also done well with certain energy stocks. In this
area we like natural gas suppliers like Tesoro and KCS Energy. More recently
we've been looking at selected exploration and production companies in this area
as well.
We've got about a 5% weighting in retail stocks. In this area we own Cato
Corp., a women's apparel company, and J. Baker, which is primarily known for
shoes. We also like Haggar, a well-known brand of casual wear. While these
stocks haven't been particularly strong of late, we're comfortable with their
individual stories and their prospects so we expect to continue holding them.
C.B.: Sometimes, as a value manager, you buy stocks early and have to
wait a while for the market to recognize their value.
Q WHAT KIND OF STOCKS HAVE YOU BEEN BUYING IN RECENT MONTHS? WHAT HAVE YOU
BEEN SELLING?
A S.S.: Some of the newer names include A.K. Steel, a very efficient rolled
steel company that we think represents a great value; Cullen-Frost
Bankers, a well-established Texas bank; and Fleetwood Enterprises, a
company that manufactures mobile homes and recreational vehicles. After
the significant correction among technology stocks, we found a few
opportunities in that area as well.
On the sell side, we exercise strict discipline, normally selling when a
stock's P/E rises above that of the market. This prevents overstaying, or
watching a stock move sharply only to see a nose-dive. During the past several
months we've been trimming some of the big winners like Sofamor-Danek, a company
that makes spinal implant devices, Casino Data Systems and Sturm Ruger, a
company that manufactures firearms as well as titanium heads for Calloway golf
clubs. These are cases where the market recognized the stock's value and the P/E
began to approach market levels.
Q ARE THERE ANY STOCKS THAT YOU SPECIFICALLY AVOID?
A S.S.: Initial public offerings have gotten a lot of attention in the past
year for the astronomical gains many of them experienced. It wasn't
uncommon to see prices on these stocks skyrocket as soon as they came to
market, only to plummet soon after. As contrarian investors, you will not
see us embracing that mania type of psychology.
C.B.: It's also not our style to speculate on financially stressed
stocks or potential bankruptcies. We have more success owning profitable
companies than trying to discover speculative turnarounds. Our goal is to
cull low P/E stocks of strongly-financed, growing companies that are
suffering temporary setbacks, from a larger universe of those that are in
a long-term downtrend.
Q SINCE YOU'VE JUST RECENTLY TAKEN THE HELM WITH THIS FUND, CAN SHAREHOLDERS
EXPECT ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE WAY IT'S MANAGED?
A C.B.: Not really. The value-style discipline takes precedence over the
manager. We remain committed to the same philosophy and investment
process that has produced the fund's strong returns in the past.
Q WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE REST OF 1996?
A S.S.: I think we'll continue to see volatility as the market wrestles with
the level of economic growth we're going to experience--namely, whether
growth remains modest or will it be rapid enough to spark higher
inflation. Our portfolio objectives are set for the long-term. Short-term
gyrations shouldn't adversely affect the fund's long-term performance.

1 DESCRIPTION OF THE FUND Kemper-Dreman Small Cap Value Fund (the Fund) is a
separate series of Kemper-Dreman Fund, Inc. (KDF),
an open-end management investment company organized
as a corporation in the state of Maryland. KDF is
authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of $.01 par
value common stock.
The Fund currently offers four classes of shares.
Class A shares are sold to investors subject to an
initial sales charge. Class B shares are sold
without an initial sales charge but are subject to
higher ongoing expenses than Class A shares and a
contingent deferred sales charge payable upon
certain redemptions. Class B shares automatically
convert to Class A shares six years after issuance.
Class C shares are sold without an initial sales
charge but are subject to higher ongoing expenses
than Class A shares and, for shares sold on or
after April 1, 1996, a contingent deferred sales
charge payable upon certain redemptions within one
year of purchase. Class C shares do not convert
into another class. Class I shares, which are sold
to a limited group of investors, are not subject to
initial or contingent deferred sales charges and
have lower ongoing expenses than other classes.
Differences in class expenses will result in the
payment of different per share income dividends by
class. Each share represents an identical interest
in the investments of the Fund and has the same
rights.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES INVESTMENT VALUATION. Investments are stated at
value. Portfolio securities that are traded on a
domestic securities exchange or securities listed
on the NASDAQ National Market are valued at the
last sale price on the exchange or market where
primarily traded or listed or, if there is no
recent sale, at the last current bid quotation.
Fixed income securities are valued by using market
quotations, or independent pricing services that
use prices provided by market makers or estimates
of market values obtained from yield data relating
to instruments or securities with similar
characteristics. Equity options are valued at the
last sale price unless the bid price is higher or
the asked price is lower, in which event such bid
or asked price is used. Financial futures and
options thereon are valued at the settlement price
established each day by the board of trade or
exchange on which they are traded. Other securities
and assets are valued at fair value as determined
in good faith by the Board of Directors.
INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME.
Investment transactions are accounted for on the
trade date (date the order to buy or sell is
executed). Dividend income is recorded on the
ex-dividend date, and interest income is recorded
on the accrual basis and includes discount
amortization on money market instruments. Realized
gains and losses from investment transactions are
reported on an identified cost basis.
FUND SHARE VALUATION. Fund shares are sold and
redeemed on a continuous basis at net asset value
(plus an initial sales charge on most sales of
Class A shares). Proceeds payable on redemption of
Class B and Class C shares will be reduced by the
amount of any applicable contingent deferred sales
charge. On each day the New York Stock Exchange is
open for trading, the net asset value per share is
determined as of the earlier of
13
<PAGE> 14
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
3:00 p.m. Chicago time or the close of the
Exchange. The net asset value per share is
determined separately for each class by dividing
the Fund's net assets attributable to that class by
the number of shares of the class outstanding.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. The Fund has complied with
the special provisions of the Internal Revenue Code
available to investment companies during the six
months ended June 30, 1996.
DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS. The Fund generally
declares and pays dividends of net investment
income and net realized capital gains annually,
which are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Dividends are determined in accordance with income
tax principles which may treat certain transactions
differently from generally accepted accounting
principles.
