Re: Withdrawal of Registration Statement on Form N-14 of
Scudder International Fund, Inc. (the "Corporation")
File No. 333-31628
----------------------------------------------------
Dear Ms. Riegel:
Pursuant to Rule 477(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "1933 Act"), the Corporation hereby applies for an order of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") granting withdrawal of the
registration statement filed via EDGAR on Form N-14 under the 1933 Act (File
No. 333-31628) (the "Registration Statement") on March 3, 2000 under its
EDGAR access codes (Accession No. 0000912057-00-009653) (the "Application").
The Registration Statement is that of another registrant which, due to a
clerical error, was inadvertently filed under the Corporation's EDGAR access
codes. For this reason, the Corporation believes that withdrawal of the
Registration Statement is the appropriate course of action. The Corporation
further believes that withdrawal of the Registration Statement is consistent
with the public interest and the protection of investors.
Please contact Sheldon A. Jones at (617) 728-7123, Allison R. Beakley
at (617) 728-7124 or Thomas A. Gormley at (617) 728-7135 with any questions
you may have concerning this Application.
Very truly yours,
/s/John Millette
