                          Money Market Portfolio
                                             
                     Supplement dated October 4, 1996
                to the Statement of Additional Information 
                          dated December 1, 1995


     Paragraph (1) under the Investment Restrictions on page B-39
has been amended to read as follows:

     (1)  Invest any one Portfolio in the instruments of issuers
     conducting their principal business activity in the same
     industry if immediately after such investment the value of
     such Portfolio's investments in such industry would exceed
     25% of the value of its total assets; provided that there is
     no limitation with respect to or arising out of (a) in the
     case of the Mortgage Securities Portfolio, investments in
     obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or
     its agencies or instrumentalities or repurchase agreements
     by such Portfolio of securities collateralized by such
     obligations; or (b) in the case of the Government Securities
     Portfolio, investments in obligations issued or guaranteed
     by the U.S. Government or its agencies or instrumentalities,
     repurchase agreements by such Portfolio of securities
     collateralized by such obligations or by cash, certificates
     of deposit, bankers' acceptances and bank repurchase
     agreements; or (c) in the case of the Money Market
     Portfolio, investments in obligations issued or guaranteed
     by the U.S. Government or its agencies or instrumentalities,
     repurchase agreements by such Portfolio of securities
     collateralized by such obligations or by cash, certificates
     of deposit, bankers' acceptances, bank repurchase agreements
     and other obligations issued or guaranteed by banks (except
     commercial paper); and provided further that during normal
     market conditions the Mortgage Securities Portfolio intends
     to invest at least 25% of the value of its total assets in
     mortgage-related securities.  The current position of the
     staff of the SEC is that only the Money Market Portfolio may
     reserve freedom of action to concentrate in bank obligations
     and that the exclusion with respect to bank instruments
     referred to above may only be applied to instruments of
     domestic banks.  For this purpose, the staff also takes the
     position that foreign branches of domestic banks may, if
     certain conditions are met, be treated as domestic banks. 
     The Fund intends to consider only obligations of domestic
     banks (as construed to include foreign branches of domestic
     banks to the extent they satisfy the above-referenced
     conditions) to be within this exclusion until such time, if
     ever, that the SEC staff modifies its position.
