SUPPLEMENT TO PROSPECTUS
DATED MAY 1, 1997
-------------------------
INVESTMENT MANAGER AND UNDERWRITER
Pursuant to the terms of an agreement, Zurich Insurance Company ("Zurich"), the
parent of the Funds' investment adviser, Zurich Kemper Investments, Inc. ("ZKI")
or, for Kemper Value Fund, Inc., Zurich Kemper Value Advisers, Inc. ("ZKVA"),
and Scudder, Stevens & Clark, Inc. ("Scudder") have formed a new global
investment organization by combining Scudder's business with that of ZKI and
that of ZKVA, and Scudder has changed its name to Scudder Kemper Investments,
Inc. ("Scudder Kemper"). As a result of the transaction, Zurich owns
approximately 70% of Scudder Kemper, with the balance owned by Scudder Kemper's
officers and employees. Scudder Kemper, 280 Park Avenue, 40th floor, New York,
New York 10017, now manages in excess of $200 billion.
Because the transaction between Scudder and Zurich resulted in the assignment of
each Fund's investment management agreement between ZKI or, for Kemper Value
Fund, Inc., ZKVA, and each respective Fund, each of those agreements was deemed
to be automatically terminated upon consummation of the transaction. In
anticipation of the transaction, however, new investment management agreements
between each Fund and Scudder Kemper were approved by each respective Fund's
Board of Directors or Trustees. A special meeting of shareholders (the "Special
Meeting") of each Fund was held in December, 1997, at which time the
shareholders also approved the new investment management agreements. The new
investment management agreements (each an "Investment Management Agreement" and,
collectively, the "Investment Management Agreements") are all effective as of
December 31, 1997 and will be in effect for an initial term ending on the same
date as would the corresponding previous investment management agreement. Dreman
Value Management, L.L.C. continues to provide sub-advisory services to Kemper-
Dreman High Return Equity Fund pursuant to a sub-advisory agreement with Scudder
Kemper.
Each Fund's Investment Management Agreement is substantially similar to the
corresponding investment management agreement terminated by the transaction,
except that Scudder Kemper is the new investment adviser to each Fund, the
management fee is calculated monthly at 1/12 of the applicable annual rate based
upon the average daily net assets for such month, and the expense limitation has
been deleted because there are no longer any state expense limitations in
effect. In addition, for Funds investing in foreign securities, except for KEUF,
each Fund's respective sub-advisory agreement with Zurich Investment Management
Limited ("ZIML") has been terminated and Scudder Kemper has assumed the duties
previously performed by ZIML under each such Fund's respective sub-advisory
agreement. For Kemper Horizon 20+ Portfolio, Kemper Horizon 10+ Portfolio, and
Kemper Horizon 5 Portfolio, each Portfolio's respective sub-advisory agreement
with Zurich Kemper Value Advisors, Inc. ("ZKVA") has been terminated and Scudder
Kemper has assumed the duties previously performed by ZKVA under each
Portfolio's respective sub-advisory agreement.

In addition, under a separate agreement between each Fund and Scudder Fund
Accounting Corporation ("SFAC"), a subsidiary of Scudder Kemper, SFAC, rather
than each Fund's investment manager, will compute the net asset value for each
Fund. SFAC does not charge the Funds for this service; however, subject to Board
approval, at some time in the future, SFAC may seek payment for its services
under this agreement.
CAPITAL STRUCTURE
Pending shareholder approval, rather than invest in securities directly, KVF,
KHF and KEUF may each in the future seek to achieve its investment objective by
pooling its assets with assets of other mutual funds for investment in another
investment company having the same investment objective and substantially the
same investment policies and restrictions as such Fund. The purpose of such an
arrangement is to achieve greater operational efficiencies and to reduce costs.
It is expected that any such investment company will be managed by Scudder
Kemper in substantially the same manner as the corresponding Fund. Shareholders
of each Fund will be given at least 30 days' prior notice of any such
investment, although they will not be entitled to vote on the action. Such
investment would be made only if the Trustees determine it to be in the best
interests of the respective Fund and its shareholders.

of issuers which are not readily marketable.
(v) Invest more than 5% of its total assets in restricted securities,
excluding restricted securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A
under the Securities Act of 1933 that have been determined to be liquid
