                              DESCRIPTION OF THE FUND
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
   
        The Fund's investment objective is to provide you with as high a
level of current income exempt from Federal and State of California personal
income taxes as is consistent with the preservation of capital. To accomplish
its investment objective, the Fund invests primarily in the debt securities
of the State of California, its political subdivisions, authorities and
corporations, the interest from which is, in the opinion of bond counsel to
the issuer, exempt from Federal and State of California personal income taxes
(collectively, "California Municipal Obligations"). To the extent acceptable
California Municipal Obligations are at any time unavailable for investment
by the Fund, the Fund will invest temporarily in other debt securities the
interest from which is, in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer, exempt
from Federal, but not California, income tax. The Fund's investment objective
cannot be changed without approval by the holders of a majority (as defined
in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act")) of the
Fund's outstanding voting shares. There can be no assurance that the Fund's
investment objective will be achieved.

MUNICIPAL OBLIGATIONS
        Debt securities the interest from which is, in the opinion of bond
counsel to the issuer, exempt from Federal income tax ("Municipal
Obligations") generally include debt obligations issued to obtain funds for
various public purposes as well as certain industrial development bonds
issued by or on behalf of public authorities. Municipal Obligations are
classified as general obligation bonds, revenue bonds and notes. General
obligation bonds are secured by the issuer's pledge of its faith, credit and
taxing power for the payment of principal and interest. Revenue bonds are
payable from the revenue derived from a particular facility or class of
facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds of a special excise or other
specific revenue source, but not from the general taxing power. Tax exempt
industrial development bonds, in most cases, are revenue bonds that do not
carry the pledge of the credit of the issuing municipality, but generally are
guaranteed by the corporate entity on whose behalf they are issued. Notes are
short-term instruments which are obligations of the issuing municipalities or
agencies and are sold in anticipation of a bond sale, collection of taxes or
receipt of other revenues. Municipal Obligations include municipal
lease/purchase agreements which are similar to installment purchase contracts
for property or equipment issued by municipalities. Municipal Obligations
bear fixed, floating or variable rates of interest, which are determined in
some instances by formulas under which the Municipal Obligation's interest
rate will change directly or inversely to changes in interest rates or an
index, or multiples thereof, in many cases subject to a maximum and minimum.
Certain Municipal Obligations are subject to redemption at a date earlier
than their stated maturity pursuant to call options, which may be separated
from the related Municipal Obligation and purchased and sold separately.
MANAGEMENT POLICIES
   
        It is a fundamental policy of the Fund that it will invest at least
80% of the value of its net assets (except when maintaining a temporary
defensive position) in Municipal Obligations. At least 65% of the value of
the Fund's net assets (except when maintaining a temporary defensive
position) will be invested in bonds, debentures and other debt instruments.
Under normal circumstances, at least 65% of the value of the Fund's net
assets will be invested in California Municipal Obligations and the remainder
may be invested in securities that are not California Municipal Obligations
and therefore may be subject to California State income taxes. See
"Investment Considerations and Risks_Investing in California Municipal
Obligations" below, and "Dividends, Distributions and Taxes." The
dollar-weighted average maturity of the Fund's portfolio ranges between three
and ten years.
    
   
        At least 80% of the value of the Fund's net assets must consist of
Municipal Obligations which, in the case of bonds, are rated no lower than
Baa by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") or BBB by Standard &
Poor's Ratings Group, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. ("S&P"),
or Fitch Investors Service, L.P. ("Fitch"). The Fund may invest up to 20% of
the value of its net assets in Municipal Obligations which, in the case of
bonds, are rated lower than Baa by Moody's and BBB by S&P and Fitch and as
low as the lowest rating assigned by Moody's, S&P or Fitch, but it currently
is the intention of the Fund that this portion of the Fund's portfolio be
invested primarily in Municipal Obligations rated no lower than Baa by
Moody's or BBB by S&P or Fitch. The Fund may invest in short-term Municipal
Obligations which are rated in the two highest rating categories by Moody's,
S&P or Fitch. See "Appendix B" in the Statement of Additional Information.
Municipal Obligations rated BBB by S&P or Fitch or Baa by Moody's are
considered investment grade obligations; those rated BBB by S&P and Fitch are
regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay principal and interest, while
those rated Baa by Moody's are considered medium grade obligations which lack
outstanding investment characteristics and have speculative characteristics.
Investments rated Ba or lower by Moody's and BB or lower by S&P and Fitch
ordinarily provide higher yields but involve greater risk because of their
spec-
                       Page 5
ulative characteristics. The Fund may invest in Municipal Obligations
rated C by Moody's or D by S&P or Fitch, which is the lowest rating assigned
by such rating organization and indicates that the Municipal Obligation is
in default and interest and/or repayment of principal is in arrears. See
"Investment Considerations and Risks_Lower Rated Bonds" below for a further
discussion of certain risks. The Fund also may invest in securities which,
while not rated, are determined by The Dreyfus Corporation to be of
comparable quality to the rated securities in which the Fund may invest; for
purposes of the 80% requirement described above, such unrated securities
shall be deemed to have the rating so determined. The Fund also may invest in
Taxable Investments of the quality described under "Appendix_Certain
Portfolio Securities_Taxable Investments."
    
   
        From time to time, the Fund may invest more than 25% of the value of
its total assets in industrial development bonds which, although issued by
industrial development authorities, may be backed only by the assets and
revenues of the non-governmental users. Interest on Municipal Obligations
(including certain industrial development bonds) which are specified private
activity bonds, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the "Code"), issued after August 7, 1986, while exempt from Federal income
tax, is a preference item for the purpose of the alternative minimum tax.
Where a regulated investment company receives such interest, a proportionate
share of any exempt-interest dividend paid by the investment company may be
treated as such a preference item to shareholders. The Fund may invest
without limitation in such Municipal Obligations if The Dreyfus Corporation
determines that their purchase is consistent with the Fund's investment
objective.
    
   
        The Fund's annual portfolio turnover rate is not expected to exceed
100%. The Fund may engage in various investment techniques, such as options
and future transactions, lending portfolio securities and short selling. Use
of certain of these techniques may give rise to taxable income. For a
discussion of the investment techniques and their related risks see
"Investment Considerations and Risks," "Appendix -- Investment Techniques"
and "Dividends, Distributions and Taxes" below and "Investment Objective and
Management Policies -- Management Policies" in the Statement of Additional
Information.
    
   
INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS AND RISKS
GENERAL -- Even though interest-bearing securities are investments which
promise a stable stream of income, the prices of such securities are
inversely affected by changes in interest rates and, therefore, are subject
to the risk of market price fluctuations. Certain securities that may be
purchased by the Fund, such as those with interest rates that fluctuate
directly or indirectly based on multiples of a stated index, are designed to
be highly sensitive to changes in interest rates and can subject the holders
thereof to extreme reductions of yield and possibly loss of principal. The
values of fixed-income securities also may be affected by changes in the
credit rating or financial condition of the issuing entities. Once the rating
of a portfolio security has been changed, the Fund will consider all
circumstances deemed relevant in determining whether to continue to hold the
security. The Fund's net asset value generally will not be stable and should
fluctuate based upon changes in the value of the Fund's portfolio securities.
Securities in which the Fund invests may earn a higher level of current
income than certain shorter-term or higher quality securities which generally
have greater liquidity, less market risk and less fluctuation in market
value.
    
   
INVESTING IN CALIFORNIA MUNICIPAL OBLIGATIONS -- You should consider
carefully the special risks inherent in the Fund's investment in California
Municipal Obligations. These risks result from certain amendments to the
California Constitution and other statutes that limit the taxing and spending
authority of California governmental entities, as well as from the general
financial condition of the State of California. From mid-1990 to late 1993,
the State suffered a recession with the worst economic, fiscal and budget
conditions since the 1930s. As a result, the State experienced recurring
budget deficits for four of the five fiscal years ended June 30, 1992. The
State had operating surpluses of approximately
                       Page 6
$109 million in fiscal 1992-93 and $917 million in fiscal 1993-94. However,
at June 30, 1994, according to California's Department of Finance, the
State's Special Fund for Economic Uncertainties has an accumulated deficit,
on a budget basis, of approximately $1.8 billion. A further consequence of
the large budget imbalances has been that the State depleted its available
cash resources and has had to use a series of external borrowings to meet its
cash needs. To meet its cash flow needs in the 1994-95 fiscal year, the State
issued, in July and August 1994, $4.0 billion of revenue anticipation
warrants and $3.0 billion of revenue anticipation notes. The 1994-95 Budget
Act contained a plan to retire a projected $1.025 billion deficit in the
1995-96 fiscal year. As a result of the deterioration in the State's budget
and cash situation between October 1991 and July 1994, the rating on the
State's general obligation bonds was reduced by S&P from AAA to A, by Moody's
from Aaa to A1 and by Fitch from AAA to A. These and other factors may have
the effect of impairing the ability of the issuers of California Municipal
Obligations to pay interest on, or repay principal of, such Municipal
Obligations. You should obtain and review a copy of the Statement of
Additional Information which more fully sets forth these and other risk
factors.
    
   
INVESTING IN MUNICIPAL OBLIGATIONS -- The Fund may invest more than 25% of
the value of its total assets in Municipal Obligations which are related in
such a way that an economic, business or political development or change
affecting one such security also would affect the other securities; for
example, securities the interest upon which is paid from revenues of similar
types of projects. As a result, the Fund may be subject to greater risk as
compared to a fund that does not follow this practice.
    
        Certain municipal lease/purchase obligations in which the Fund may
invest may contain "non-appropriation" clauses which provide that the
municipality has no obligation to make lease payments in future years unless
money is appropriated for such purpose on a yearly basis. Although
"non-appropriation" lease/purchase obligations are secured by the leased
property, disposition of the leased property in the event of foreclosure
might prove difficult. In evaluating the credit quality of a municipal
lease/purchase obligation that is unrated, The Dreyfus Corporation will
consider, on an ongoing basis, a number of factors including the likelihood
that the issuing municipality will discontinue appropriating funding for the
leased property.
        Certain provisions in the Code relating to the issuance of Municipal
Obligations may reduce the volume of Municipal Obligations qualifying for
Federal tax exemption. One effect of these provisions could be to increase
the cost of the Municipal Obligations available for purchase by the Fund and
thus reduce the available yield. Shareholders should consult their tax
advisers concerning the effect of these provisions on an investment in the
Fund. Proposals that may restrict or eliminate the income tax exemption for
interest on Municipal Obligations may be introduced in the future. If any
such proposal were enacted that would reduce the availability of Municipal
Obligations for investment by the Fund so as to adversely affect Fund
shareholders, the Fund would reevaluate its investment objective and policies
and submit possible changes in the Fund's structure to shareholders for their
consideration. If legislation were enacted that would treat a type of
Municipal Obligation as taxable, the Fund would treat such security as a
permissible Taxable Investment within the applicable limits set forth herein.
ZERO COUPON SECURITIES -- Federal income tax law requires the holder of a
zero coupon security or of certain pay-in-kind bonds to accrue income with
respect to these securities prior to the receipt of cash payments. To
maintain its qualification as a regulated investment company and avoid
liability for Federal income taxes, the Fund may be required to distribute
such income accrued with respect to these securities and may have to dispose
of portfolio securities under disadvantageous circumstances in order to
generate cash to satisfy these distribution requirements.
   
LOWER RATED BONDS -- The Fund may invest up to 20% of the value of its net
assets in higher yielding (and, therefore, higher risk) debt securities such
as those rated Ba by Moody's or BB by S&P or Fitch or
                       Page 7
as low as the lowest rating assigned by Moody's, S&P or Fitch (commonly known
as junk bonds). They generally are not meant for short-term investing and may
be subject to certain risks with respect to the issuing entity and to greater
market fluctuations than certain lower yielding, higher rated fixed-income
securities. The retail secondary market for these bonds may be less liquid
than that of higher rated bonds; adverse market conditions could make it
difficult at times for the Fund to sell certain securities or could result in
lower prices than those used in calculating the Fund's net asset value. See
"Appendix_Certain Portfolio Securities--Ratings."
    
   
USE OF DERIVATIVES -- The Fund may invest in derivatives ("Derivatives").
These are financial instruments which derive their performance, at least in
part, from the performance of an underlying asset, index or interest rate.
The Derivatives the Fund may use include options and futures. While
Derivatives can be used effectively in furtherance of the Fund's investment
objective, under certain market conditions, they can increase the volatility
of the Fund's net asset value, can decrease the liquidity of the Fund's
portfolio and make more difficult the accurate pricing of the Fund's
portfolio. See "Appendix -- Investment Techniques -- Use of Derivatives"
below, and "Investment Objective and Management Policies -- Management
Policies -- Derivatives"in the Statement of Additional Information.
    
   
NON-DIVERSIFIED STATUS -- The classification of the Fund as a
"non-diversified" investment company means that the proportion of the Fund's
assets that may be invested in the securities of a single issuer is not
limited by the 1940 Act. A "diversified'' investment company is required by
the 1940 Act generally, with respect to 75% of its total assets, to invest
not more than 5% of such assets in the securities of a single issuer. Since a
relatively high percentage of the Fund's assets may be invested in the
securities of a limited number of issuers, the Fund's portfolio may be more
sensitive to changes in the market value of a single issuer. However, to meet
Federal tax requirements, at the close of each quarter the Fund may not have
more than 25% of its total assets invested in any one issuer and, with
respect to 50% of total assets, not more than 5% of its total assets invested
in any one issuer. These limitations do not apply to U.S. Government
securities.
    
SIMULTANEOUS INVESTMENTS -- Investment decisions for the Fund are made
independently from those of other investment companies advised by The Dreyfus
Corporation. If, however, such other investment companies desire to invest
in, or dispose of, the same securities as the Fund, available investments or
opportunities for sales will be allocated equitably to each investment
company. In some cases, this procedure may adversely affect the size of the
position obtained for or disposed of by the Fund or the price paid or
received by the Fund.
                         MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND
   
INVESTMENT ADVISER -- The Dreyfus Corporation, located at 200 Park Avenue,
New York, New York 10166, was formed in 1947 and serves as the Fund's
investment adviser. The Dreyfus Corporation is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Mellon Bank, N.A., which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mellon Bank
Corporation ("Mellon"). As of June 28, 1996, The Dreyfus Corporation managed
or administered approximately $79 billion in assets for more than 1.7 million
investor accounts nationwide.
    
   
        The Dreyfus Corporation supervises and assists in the overall
management of the Fund's affairs under a Management Agreement with the Fund,
subject to the authority of the Fund's Board in accordance with Massachusetts
law. The Fund's primary portfolio manager is L. Lawrence Troutman. He has
held this position since the Fund's inception and has been employed by The
Dreyfus Corporation since 1985. The Fund's other portfolio managers are
identified in the Statement of Additional Information. The Dreyfus Corporation
also provides research services for the Fund and for other funds advised by
The Dreyfus Corporation through a professional staff of portfolio managers
and securities analysts.
    
                       Page 8
   
        Mellon is a publicly owned multibank holding company incorporated
under Pennsylvania law in 1971 and registered under the Federal Bank Holding
Company Act of 1956, as amended. Mellon provides a comprehensive range of
financial products and services in domestic and selected international
markets. Mellon is among the twenty-five largest bank holding companies in
the United Stated based on total assets. Mellon's principal wholly-owned
subsidiaries are Mellon Bank, N.A., Mellon Bank (DE) National Association,
Mellon Bank (MD), The Boston Company, Inc., AFCO Credit Corporation and a
number of companies known as Mellon Financial Services Corporations. Through
its subsidiaries, including The Dreyfus Corporation, Mellon managed more than
$237 billion in assets as of March 31, 1996, including approximately $83
billion in proprietary mutual fund assets. As of March 31, 1996, Mellon,
through various subsidiaries, provided non-investment services, such as
custodial or administration services, for more than $886 billion in assets,
including approximately $61 billion in mutual fund assets.
    
   
        Under the terms of the Management Agreement, the Fund has agreed to
pay The Dreyfus Corporation a monthly fee at the annual rate of .60 of 1% of
the value of the Fund's average daily net assets. For the fiscal year ended
March 31, 1996, the Fund paid The Dreyfus Corporation a monthly management
fee at the effective annual rate of .46 of 1% of the value of the Fund's
average daily net assets. From time to time, The Dreyfus Corporation may
waive receipt of its fees and/or voluntarily assume certain expenses of the
Fund, which would have the effect of lowering the overall expense ratio of
the Fund and increasing yield to investors. The Fund will not pay The Dreyfus
Corporation at a later time for any amounts it may waive, nor will the Fund
reimburse The Dreyfus Corporation for any amounts it may assume.
    
   
        In allocating brokerage transactions for the Fund, The Dreyfus
Corporation seeks to obtain the best execution of orders at the most
favorable net price. Subject to this determination, The Dreyfus Corporation
may consider, among other things, the receipt of research services and/or the
sale of shares of the Fund or other funds managed, advised or administered by
The Dreyfus Corporation as factors in the selection of broker-dealers to
execute portfolio transactions for the Fund. See "Portfolio Transactions" in
the Statement of Additional Information.
    
   
        The Dreyfus Corporation may pay the Fund's distributor for
shareholder services from The Dreyfus Corporation's own assets, including
past profits but not including the management fee paid by the Fund. The
Fund's distributor may use part or all of such payments to pay securities
dealers, banks or other financial institutions in respect of these services.
    
   
DISTRIBUTOR -- The Fund's distributor is Premier Mutual Fund Services, Inc.
(the "Distributor"), located at 60 State Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02109.
The Distributor's ultimate parent is Boston Institutional Group, Inc.
    
   
TRANSFER AND DIVIDEND DISBURSING AGENT AND CUSTODIAN -- Dreyfus Transfer,
Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Dreyfus Corporation, P.O. Box 9671,
Providence, Rhode Island 02940-9671, is the Fund's Transfer and Dividend
Disbursing Agent (the "Transfer Agent"). The Bank of New York, 90 Washington
Street, New York, New York 10286, is the Fund's Custodian.
    
   
                               HOW TO BUY SHARES
    
        Fund shares are sold without a sales charge. You may be charged a
nominal fee if you effect transactions in Fund shares through a securities
dealer, bank or other financial institution. Share certificates are issued
only upon your written request. No certificates are issued for fractional
shares. It is not recommended that the Fund be used as a vehicle for Keogh,
IRA or other qualified plans. The Fund reserves the right to reject any
purchase order.
                       Page 9
   
        The minimum initial investment is $2,500, or $1,000 if you are a
client of a securities dealer, bank or other financial institution which has
made an aggregate minimum initial purchase for its customers of $2,500.
Subsequent investments must be at least $100. The initial investment must be
accompanied by the Account Application. For full-time or part-time employees
of The Dreyfus Corporation or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries,
directors of The Dreyfus Corporation, Board members of a fund advised by The
Dreyfus Corporation, including members of the Fund's Board, or the spouse or
minor child of any of the foregoing, the minimum initial investment is
$1,000. For full-time or part-time employees of The Dreyfus Corporation or
any of its affiliates or subsidiaries who elect to have a portion of their
pay directly deposited into their Fund account, the minimum initial
investment is $50. The Fund reserves the right to vary further the initial
and subsequent investment minimum requirements at any time. Fund shares also
are offered without regard to the minimum initial investment requirements
through Dreyfus-AUTOMATIC Asset BuilderRegistration Mark, Dreyfus Government
Direct Deposit Privilege or Dreyfus Payroll Savings Plan pursuant to the
Dreyfus Step Program described under "Shareholder Services." These services
enable you to make regularly scheduled investments and may provide you with a
convenient way to invest for long-term financial goals. You should be aware,
however, that periodic investment plans do not guarantee a profit and will
not protect an investor against loss in a declining market.
    
        You may purchase Fund shares by check or wire, or through the Dreyfus
TELETRANSFER Privilege described below. Checks should be made payable to "The
Dreyfus Family of Funds." Payments to open new accounts which are mailed
should be sent to The Dreyfus Family of Funds, P.O. Box 9387, Providence,
Rhode Island 02940-9387, together with your Account Application. For
subsequent investments, your Fund account number should appear on the check
and an investment slip should be enclosed and sent to The Dreyfus Family of
Funds, P.O. Box 105, Newark, New Jersey 07101-0105. Neither initial nor sub-
sequent investments should be made by third party check. Purchase orders may
be delivered in person only to a Dreyfus Financial Center. THESE ORDERS WILL
BE FORWARDED TO THE FUND AND WILL BE PROCESSED ONLY UPON RECEIPT THEREBY. For
the location of the nearest Dreyfus Financial Center, please call one of the
telephone numbers listed under "General Information."
   
        Wire payments may be made if your bank account is in a commercial
bank that is a member of the Federal Reserve System or any other bank having
a correspondent bank in New York City. Immediately available funds may be
transmitted by wire to The Bank of New York, DDA #8900204400/Dreyfus
California Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund, for purchase of Fund shares in
your name. The wire must include your Fund account number (for new accounts,
your Taxpayer Identification Number ("TIN") should be included instead),
account registration and dealer number, if applicable. If your initial
purchase of Fund shares is by wire, please call 1-800-645-6561 after
completing your wire payment to obtain your Fund account number. Please
include your Fund account number on the Account Application and promptly mail
the Account Application to the Fund, as no redemptions will be permitted
until the Account Application is received. You may obtain further information
about remitting funds in this manner from your bank. All payments should be
made in U.S. dollars and, to avoid fees and delays, should be drawn only on
U.S. banks. A charge will be imposed if any check used for investment in your
account does not clear. The Fund makes available to certain large
institutions the ability to issue purchase instructions through compatible
computer facilities.
    
        Subsequent investments also may be made by electronic transfer of
funds from an account maintained in a bank or other domestic financial
institution that is an Automated Clearing House member. You must direct the
institution to transmit immediately available funds through the Automated
Clearing House to The Bank of New York with instructions to credit your Fund
account. The instructions must specify your Fund account registration and
your Fund account number PRECEDED BY THE DIGITS "1111."
                       Page 10
   
        Fund shares are sold on a continuous basis at the net asset value per
share next determined after an order in proper form is received by the
Transfer Agent. Net asset value per share is determined as of the close of
trading on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange (currently 4:00 p.m., New
York time), on each day the New York Stock Exchange is open for business. For
purposes of determining net asset value per share, options and futures
contracts will be valued 15 minutes after the close of trading on the floor
of the New York Stock Exchange. Net asset value per share is computed by
dividing the value of the Fund's net assets (i.e., the value of its assets
less liabilities) by the total number of shares outstanding. The Fund's
investments are valued by an independent pricing service approved by the
Fund's Board and are valued at fair value as determined by the pricing
service. The pricing service's procedures are reviewed under the general
supervision of the Fund's Board. For further information regarding the
methods employed in valuing Fund investments, see "Determination of Net Asset
Value" in the Statement of Additional Information.
    
        Federal regulations require that you provide a certified TIN upon
opening or reopening an account. See "Dividends, Distributions and Taxes" and
the Account Application for further information concerning this requirement.
Failure to furnish a certified TIN to the Fund could subject you to a $50
penalty imposed by the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS").
   
DREYFUS TELETRANSFER PRIVILEGE _ You may purchase Fund shares (minimum $500,
maximum $150,000 per day) by telephone if you have checked the appropriate
box and supplied the necessary information on the Account Application or have
filed a Shareholder Services Form with the Transfer Agent. The proceeds will
be transferred between the bank account designated in one of these documents
and your Fund account. Only a bank account maintained in a domestic financial
institution which is an Automated Clearing House member may be so designated.
The Fund may modify or terminate this Privilege at any time or charge a
service fee upon notice to shareholders. No such fee currently is contemplated.
    
   
        If you have selected the Dreyfus TELETRANSFER Privilege, you may
request a Dreyfus TELETRANSFER purchase of shares by calling 1-800-645-6561
or, if you are calling from overseas, call 516-794-5452.
    
                              SHAREHOLDER SERVICES
FUND EXCHANGES
        You may purchase, in exchange for shares of the Fund, shares of
certain other funds managed or administered by The Dreyfus Corporation, to
the extent such shares are offered for sale in your state of residence. These
funds have different investment objectives which may be of interest to you.
If you desire to use this service, please call 1-800-645-6561 to determine if
it is available and whether any conditions are imposed on its use.
   
        To request an exchange, you must give exchange instructions to the
Transfer Agent in writing or by telephone. Before any exchange, you must
obtain and should review a copy of the current prospectus of the fund into
which the exchange is being made. Prospectuses may be obtained by calling
1-800-645-6561. Except in the case of personal retirement plans, the shares
being exchanged must have a current value of at least $500; furthermore, when
establishing a new account by exchange, the shares being exchanged must have
a value of at least the minimum initial investment required for the fund into
which the exchange is being made. The ability to issue exchange instructions
by telephone is given to all Fund shareholders automatically, unless you
check the applicable "No" box on the Account Application, indicating that you
specifically refuse this Privilege. The Telephone Exchange Privilege may be
established for an existing account by written request, signed by all
shareholders in the account, or by a separate signed Shareholder Services
Form, also available by calling 1-800-645-6561. If you have established the
Telephone Exchange Privilege, you may telephone exchange instructions by
calling 1-800-645-6561
                       Page 11
or, if you are calling from overseas, call 516-794-5452. See "How to Redeem
Shares _ Procedures." Upon an exchange into a new account, the following
shareholder services and privileges, as applicable and where available, will
be automatically carried over to the fund into which the exchange is made:
Telephone Exchange Privilege, Check Redemption Privilege, Wire Redemption
Privilege, Telephone Redemption Privilege, Dreyfus TELETRANSFER Privilege and
the dividend/capital gain distribution option (except for Dreyfus Dividend
Sweep) selected by the investor.
    
   
         Shares will be exchanged at the next determined net asset value;
however, a sales load may be charged with respect to exchanges into funds
sold with a sales load. If you are exchanging into a fund that charges a
sales load, you may qualify for share prices which do not include the sales
load or which reflect a reduced sales load, if the shares you are exchanging
were: (a) purchased with a sales load, (b) acquired by a previous exchange
from shares purchased with a sales load, or (c) acquired through reinvestment
of dividends or distributions paid with respect to the foregoing categories
of shares. To qualify, at the time of the exchange you must notify the
Transfer Agent. Any such qualification is subject to confirmation of your
holdings through a check of appropriate records. See "Shareholder Services"
in the Statement of Additional Information. No fees currently are charged
shareholders directly in connection with exchanges, although the Fund reserves
the right, upon not less than 60 days written notice, to charge shareholders
a nominal fee in accordance with rules promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission.  The Fund reserves the right to reject any exchange
request in whole or in part. The availability of Fund Exchanges may be
modified or terminated at any time upon notice to shareholders. See
"Dividends, Distributions and Taxes."
    
DREYFUS AUTO-EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE
        Dreyfus Auto-Exchange Privilege enables you to invest regularly (on a
semi-monthly, monthly, quarterly or annual basis), in exchange for shares of
the Fund, in shares of other funds in the Dreyfus Family of Funds of which
you are a shareholder. The amount you designate, which can be expressed
either in terms of a specific dollar or share amount ($100 minimum), will be
exchanged automatically on the first and/or fifteenth of the month according
to the schedule you have selected. Shares will be exchanged at the
then-current net asset value; however, a sales load may be charged with
respect to exchanges into funds sold with a sales load. See "Shareholder
Services" in the Statement of Additional Information. The right to exercise

DREYFUS DIVIDEND OPTIONS
        Dreyfus Dividend Sweep enables you to invest automatically dividends
or dividends and capital gain distributions, if any, paid by the Fund in
shares of another fund in the Dreyfus Family of Funds of which you are a
shareholder. Shares of the other fund will be purchased at the then-current
net asset value; however, a sales load may be charged with respect to
investments in shares of a fund sold with a sales load. If you are investing
in a fund that charges a sales load, you may qualify for share prices which
                       Page 13
do not include the sales load or which reflect a reduced sales load. If you
are investing in a fund that charges a contingent deferred sales charge, the
shares purchased will be subject to the contingent deferred sales charge, if
any, applicable to the purchased shares. See "Shareholder Services" in the
Statement of Additional Information. Dreyfus Dividend ACHpermits you to
transfer electronically dividends or dividends and capital gain
distributions, if any, from the Fund to a designated bank account. Only an
account maintained at a domestic financial institution which is an Automated
Clearing House member may be so designated. Banks may charge a fee for
Dreyfus Dividend Sweep.

your participation in these privileges by mailing written notification to The
Dreyfus Family of Funds, P.O. Box 9671, Providence, Rhode Island 02940-9671.
To select a new fund after cancellation, you must submit a new Dividend
Options Form. Enrollment in or cancellation of these privileges is effective
three business days following receipt. These privileges are available only
for existing accounts and may not be used to open new accounts. Minimum
subsequent investments do not apply to Dreyfus Dividend Sweep. The Fund may
modify or terminate these privileges at any time or charge a service fee. No
such fee currently is contemplated.
AUTOMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN
   
        The Automatic Withdrawal Plan permits you to request withdrawal of a
specified dollar amount (minimum of $50) on either a monthly or quarterly
basis if you have a $5,000 minimum account. An application for the Automatic
Withdrawal Plan can be obtained from Dreyfus Service Corporation. The
Automatic Withdrawal Plan may be ended at any time by you, the Fund or the
Transfer Agent. Shares for which certificates have been issued may not be
redeemed through the Automatic Withdrawal Plan.
    
   
                           HOW TO REDEEM SHARES
    
GENERAL
        You may request redemption of your shares at any time. Redemption
requests should be transmitted to the Transfer Agent as described below. When
a request is received in proper form, the Fund will redeem the shares at the
next determined net asset value.
   
        The Fund imposes no charges when shares are redeemed. Securities
dealers, banks and other financial institutions may charge their clients a
nominal fee for effecting redemptions of Fund shares. Any certificates
representing Fund shares being redeemed must be submitted with the redemption
request. The value of the shares redeemed may be more or less than their
original cost, depending upon the Fund's then-current net asset value.
    
   
        The Fund ordinarily will make payment for all shares redeemed within
seven days after receipt by the Transfer Agent of a redemption request in
proper form, except as provided by the rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. HOWEVER, IF YOU HAVE PURCHASED FUND SHARES BY CHECK, BY DREYFUS
TELETRANSFER PRIVILEGE OR THROUGH DREYFUS-AUTOMATIC ASSET BUILDERRegistration
Mark AND SUBSEQUENTLY SUBMIT A WRITTEN REDEMPTION REQUEST TO THE TRANSFER
AGENT, THE REDEMPTION PROCEEDS WILL BE TRANSMITTED TO YOU PROMPTLY UPON BANK
CLEARANCE OF YOUR PURCHASE CHECK, DREYFUS TELETRANSFER PURCHASE OR DREYFUS-
AUTOMATIC ASSET BUILDER ORDER, WHICH MAY TAKE UP TO EIGHT BUSINESS DAYS OR
MORE. IN ADDITION, THE FUND WILL NOT HONOR REDEMPTION CHECKS UNDER THE CHECK
REDEMPTION PRIVILEGE, AND WILL REJECT REQUESTS TO REDEEM SHARES BY WIRE OR
TELEPHONE OR PURSUANT TO THE DREYFUS TELETRANSFER PRIVILEGE, FOR A PERIOD OF
EIGHT BUSINESS DAYS AFTER THE RECEIPT BY THE TRANSFER AGENT OF THE PURCHASE
CHECK, THE DREYFUS TELETRANSFER PURCHASE OR THE DREYFUS-AUTOMATIC ASSET
BUILDER ORDER AGAINST WHICH SUCH REDEMPTION IS REQUESTED. THESE PROCEDURES
WILL NOT APPLY IF YOUR SHARES WERE PURCHASED BY WIRE PAYMENT, OR IF YOU
OTHERWISE
                       Page 14
HAVE A SUFFICIENT COLLECTED BALANCE IN YOUR ACCOUNT TO COVER THE
REDEMPTION REQUEST. PRIOR TO THE TIME ANY REDEMPTION IS EFFECTIVE, DIVIDENDS
ON SUCH SHARES WILL ACCRUE AND BE PAYABLE, AND YOU WILL BE ENTITLED TO
EXERCISE ALL OTHER RIGHTS OF BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP. Fund shares will not be
redeemed until the Transfer Agent has received your Account Application.
    
        The Fund reserves the right to redeem your account at its option upon
not less than 30 days' written notice if your account's net asset value is
$500 or less and remains so during the notice period.
PROCEDURES
   
        You may redeem Fund shares by using the regular redemption procedure
through the Transfer Agent, or, if you have checked the appropriate box and
supplied the necessary information on the Account Application or have filed a
Shareholder Services Form with the Transfer Agent, through the Check
Redemption Privilege, the Wire Redemption Privilege, the Telephone Redemption
Privilege or the Dreyfus TELETRANSFER Privilege. The Fund makes available to
certain large institutions the ability to issue redemption instructions
through compatible computer facilities. The Fund reserves the right to refuse
any request made by wire or telephone, including requests made shortly after
a change of address, and may limit the amount involved or the number of such
requests. The Fund may modify or terminate any redemption Privilege at any
time or charge a service fee upon notice to shareholders. No such fee
currently is contemplated. Shares for which certificates have been issued are
not eligible for the Check Redemption, Wire Redemption, Telephone Redemption
or Dreyfus TELETRANSFER Privilege.
    
        You may redeem Fund shares by telephone if you have checked the
appropriate box on the Account Application or have filed a Shareholder
Services Form with the Transfer Agent. If you select the telephone redemption
privilege or telephone exchange privilege (which is granted automatically
unless you refuse it), you authorize the Transfer Agent to act on telephone
instructions from any person representing himself or herself to be you and
reasonably believed by the Transfer Agent to be genuine. The Fund will
require the Transfer Agent to employ reasonable procedures, such as requiring
a form of personal identification, to confirm that instructions are genuine
and, if it does not follow such procedures, the Fund or the Transfer Agent
may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions.
Neither the Fund nor the Transfer Agent will be liable for following
telephone instructions reasonably believed to be genuine.
        During times of drastic economic or market conditions, you may
experience difficulty in contacting the Transfer Agent by telephone to
request a redemption or exchange of Fund shares. In such cases, you should
consider using the other redemption procedures described herein. Use of these
other redemption procedures may result in your redemption request being
processed at a later time than it would have been if telephone redemption had
been used. During the delay, the Fund's net asset value may fluctuate.
   
REGULAR REDEMPTION -- Under the regular redemption procedure, you may redeem
shares by written request mailed to The Dreyfus Family of Funds, P.O. Box
9671, Providence, Rhode Island 02940-9671. Redemption requests may be
delivered in person only to a Dreyfus Financial Center. THESE REQUESTS WILL
BE FORWARDED TO THE FUND AND WILL BE PROCESSED ONLY UPON RECEIPT THEREBY. For
the location of the nearest Dreyfus Financial Center, please call one of the
telephone numbers listed under "General Information." Redemption requests
must be signed by each shareholder, including each owner of a joint account,
and each signature must be guaranteed. The Transfer Agent has adopted
standards and procedures pursuant to which signature-guarantees in proper
form generally will be accepted from domestic banks, brokers, dealers, credit
unions, national securities exchanges, registered securities associations,
clearing agencies and savings associations, as well as from participants in
the New York Stock Exchange Medallion Signature Program, the Securities
Transfer Agents Medallion Program
                       Page 15
("STAMP") and the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program. If you have any questions
with respect to signature-guarantees, please call one of the telephone numbers
listed under "General Information."
    
        Redemption proceeds of at least $1,000 will be wired to any member
bank of the Federal Reserve System in accordance with a written
signature-guaranteed request.
   
CHECK REDEMPTION PRIVILEGE _ You may write Redemption Checks drawn on your
Fund account. Redemption Checks may be made payable to the order of any
person in the amount of $500 or more. Potential fluctuations in the net asset
value of the Fund's shares should be considered in determining the amount of
the check. Redemption Checks should not be used to close your account.
Redemption Checks are free, but the Transfer Agent will impose a fee for
stopping payment of a Redemption Check upon your request or if the Transfer
Agent cannot honor the Redemption Check due to insufficient funds or other
valid reason. You should date your Redemption Checks with the current date
when you write them. Please do not postdate your Redemption Checks. If you
do, the Transfer Agent will honor, upon presentment, even if presented before
the date of the check, all postdated Redemption Checks which are dated within
six months of presentment of payment, if they are otherwise in good order.
This Privilege will be terminated immediately, without notice, with respect to
any account which is, or becomes, subject to backup withholding on
redemptions (see "Dividends, Distributions and Taxes"). Any Redemption Check
written on an account which has become subject to backup withholding on
redemptions will not be honored by the Transfer Agent.
    
   
WIRE REDEMPTION PRIVILEGE -- You may request by wire or telephone that
redemption proceeds (minimum $1,000) be wired to your account at a bank which
is a member of the Federal Reserve System, or a correspondent bank if your
bank is not a member. You also may direct that redemption proceeds be paid by
check (maximum $150,000 per day)made out to the owners of record and mailed
to your address. Redemption proceeds of less than $1,000 will be paid
automatically by check. Holders of jointly registered Fund or bank accounts
may have redemption proceeds of not more than $250,000 wired within any
30-day period. You may telephone redemption requests by calling
1-800-645-6561 or, if you are calling from overseas, call 516-794-5452. The
Statement of Additional Information sets forth instructions for transmitting
redemption requests by wire.
    
   
TELEPHONE REDEMPTION PRIVILEGE -- You may request by telephone that
redemption proceeds (maximum $150,000 per day) be paid by check and mailed to
your address. You may telephone redemption instructions by calling
1-800-645-6561 or, if you are calling from overseas, call 516-794-5452.
    
   
DREYFUS TELETRANSFER PRIVILEGE -- You may request by telephone that
redemption proceeds (minimum $500 per day) be transferred between your Fund
account and your bank account. Only a bank account maintained in a domestic
financial institution which is an Automated Clearing House member may be
designated. Redemption proceeds will be on deposit in your account at an
Automated Clearing House member bank ordinarily two days after receipt of the
redemption request or, at your request, paid by check (maximum $150,000 per
day) and mailed to your address. Holders of jointly registered Fund or bank
accounts may redeem through the Dreyfus TELETRANSFER Privilege for transfer
to their bank account not more than $250,000 within any 30-day period.
    
   
        If you have selected the Dreyfus TELETRANSFER Privilege, you may
request a Dreyfus TELETRANSFER redemption of shares by calling 1-800-645-6561
or, if you are calling from overseas, call 516-794-5452.
    
                       Page 16
                            SHAREHOLDER SERVICES PLAN
        The Fund has adopted a Shareholder Services Plan pursuant to which
the Fund reimburses Dreyfus Service Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of
The Dreyfus Corporation, an amount not to exceed an annual rate of .25 of l%
of the value of the Fund's average daily net assets for certain allocated
expenses of providing personal services and/or maintaining shareholder
accounts. The services provided may include personal services relating to
shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding the
Fund and providing reports and other information, and services related to the
maintenance of shareholder accounts.
                     DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES
   
        The Fund ordinarily declares dividends from its net investment income
on each day the New York Stock Exchange is open for business. Fund shares
begin earning income dividends on the day following the date of purchase. The
Fund's earnings for Saturdays, Sundays and holidays are declared as dividends
on the next business day. Dividends usually are paid on the last business day
of each month and are automatically reinvested in additional Fund shares at
net asset value or, at your option, paid in cash. If you redeem all shares in
your account at any time during the month, all dividends to which you are
entitled will be paid to you along with the proceeds of the redemption. If
you are an omnibus accountholder and indicate in a partial redemption request
that a portion of any accrued dividends to which such account is entitled
belongs to an underlying accountholder who has redeemed all shares in his or
her account, such portion of the accrued dividends will be paid to you along
with the proceeds of the redemption. Distributions from net realized
securities gains, if any, generally are declared and paid once a year, but
the Fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the
distribution requirements of the Code, in all events in a manner consistent
with the provisions of the 1940 Act. The Fund will not make distributions
from net realized securities gains unless capital loss carryovers, if any,
have been utilized or have expired. You may choose whether to receive
distributions in cash or to reinvest in additional Fund shares at net asset
value. All expenses are accrued daily and deducted before declaration of
dividends to investors.
    
   
        Except for dividends from Taxable Investments, the Fund anticipates
that substantially all dividends paid by the Fund will not be subject to
Federal or California personal income taxes. To the extent that you are
obligated to pay state or local taxes outside of the State of California,
dividends earned by an investment in the Fund may represent taxable income.
Dividends derived from Taxable Investments, together with distributions from
any net realized short-term securities gains and all or a portion of any
gains realized from the sale or other disposition of certain market discount
bonds, paid by the Fund are subject to Federal income tax as ordinary income
whether or not reinvested in Fund shares. No dividend paid by the Fund will
qualify for the dividends received deduction allowable to certain U.S.
corporations.  Distributions from net realized long-term securities gains of
the Fund generally are taxable as long-term capital gains for Federal income
tax purposes if you are a citizen or resident of the United States. Dividends
and distributions attributable to income or gain derived from securities
transactions and from the use of certain of the investment techniques described
under "Appendix--Investment Techniques" also will be subject to Federal income
tax. The Code provides that the net capital gain of an individual generally
will not be subject to Federal income tax at a rate in excess of 28%. Under
the Code, interest on indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry
Fund shares which is deemed to relate to exempt-interest dividends is not
deductible.
    
   
        Although all or a substantial portion of the dividends paid by the
Fund may be excluded by shareholders of the Fund from their gross income for
Federal income tax purposes, the Fund may purchase specified private activity
bonds, the interest from which may be (i) a preference item for purposes of
the alternative minimum tax, (ii) a component of the "adjusted current
earnings" preference item for purposes of the corpo-
                       Page 17
rate alternative minimum tax as well as a component in computing the
corporate environmental tax or (iii) a factor in determining the extent to
which a shareholder's Social Security benefits are taxable. If the Fund
purchases such securities, the portion of dividends related thereto will not
necessarily be tax exempt to an investor who is subject to the alternative
minimum tax and/or tax on Social Security benefits and may cause an investor
to be subject to such taxes.
    
        Notice as to the tax status of your dividends and distributions will
be mailed to you annually. You also will receive periodic summaries of your
account which will include information as to dividends and distributions from
securities gains, if any, paid during the year. These statements set forth
the dollar amount of income exempt from Federal tax and the dollar amount, if
any, subject to Federal tax. These dollar amounts will vary depending on the
size and length of time of your investment in the Fund. If the Fund pays
dividends derived from taxable income, it intends to designate as taxable the
same percentage of the day's dividend as the actual taxable income earned on
that day bears to total income earned on that day. Thus, the percentage of
the dividend designated as taxable, if any, may vary from day to day.
   
        The exchange of shares of one fund for shares of another is treated
for Federal income tax purposes as a sale of the shares given in exchange by
the shareholder and, therefore, an exchanging shareholder may realize a
taxable gain or loss.
    
        Federal regulations generally require the Fund to withhold ("backup
withholding") and remit to the U.S. Treasury 31% of taxable dividends,
distributions from net realized securities gains and the proceeds of any
redemption, regardless of the extent to which gain or loss may be realized,
paid to a shareholder if such shareholder fails to certify either that the
TIN furnished in connection with opening an account is correct or that such
shareholder has not received notice from the IRS of being subject to backup
withholding as a result of a failure to properly report taxable dividend or
interest income on a Federal income tax return. Furthermore, the IRS may
notify the Fund to institute backup withholding if the IRS determines a
shareholder's TIN is incorrect or if a shareholder has failed to properly
report taxable dividend and interest income on a Federal income tax return.
        A TIN is either the Social Security number or employer identification
number of the record owner of the account. Any tax withheld as a result of
backup withholding does not constitute an additional tax imposed on the
record owner of the account, and may be claimed as a credit on the record
owner's Federal income tax return.
   
        Management of the Fund believes that the Fund has qualified for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 1996 as a "regulated investment company" under
the Code. The Fund intends to continue to so qualify if such qualification is
in the best interests of its shareholders. Such qualification relieves the
Fund of any liability for Federal income tax to the extent its earnings are
distributed in accordance with applicable provisions of the Code. The Fund is
subject to a non-deductible 4% excise tax, measured with respect to certain
undistributed amounts of taxable investment income and capital gains.
    
        You should consult your tax adviser regarding specific questions as
to Federal, state or local taxes.
                           PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
        For purposes of advertising, performance may be calculated on several
bases, including current yield, tax equivalent yield, average annual total
return and/or total return.
        Current yield refers to the Fund's annualized net investment income
per share over a 30-day period, expressed as a percentage of the net asset
value per share at the end of the period. For purposes of calculating current
yield, the amount of net investment income per share during that 30-day
period, computed in accordance with regulatory requirements, is compounded by
assuming that it is reinvested at a constant rate over a six-month period. An
identical result is then assumed to have occurred during a
                       Page 18
second six-month period which, when added to the result for the first six
months, provides an "annualized" yield for an entire one-year period.
Calculations of the Fund's current yield may reflect absorbed expenses
pursuant to any undertaking that may be in effect. See "Management of the
Fund."
        Tax equivalent yield is calculated by determining the pre-tax yield
which, after being taxed at a stated rate, would be equivalent to a stated
current yield calculated as described above.
        Average annual total return is calculated pursuant to a standardized
formula which assumes that an investment in the Fund was purchased with an
initial payment of $1,000 and that the investment was redeemed at the end of
a stated period of time, after giving effect to the reinvestment of dividends
and distributions during the period. The return is expressed as a percentage
rate which, if applied on a compounded annual basis, would result in the
redeemable value of the investment at the end of the period. Advertisements
of the Fund's performance will include the Fund's average annual total return
for one, five and ten year periods, or for shorter periods depending upon the
length of time during which the Fund has operated.
        Total return is computed on a per share basis and assumes the
reinvestment of dividends and distributions. Total return generally is
expressed as a percentage rate which is calculated by combining the income
and principal changes for a specified period and dividing by the net asset
value per share at the beginning of the period. Advertisements may include
the percentage rate of total return or may include the value of a
hypothetical investment at the end of the period which assumes the
application of the percentage rate of total return.
        Performance will vary from time to time and past results are not
necessarily representative of future results. You should remember that
performance is a function of portfolio management in selecting the type and
quality of portfolio securities and is affected by operating expenses.
Performance information, such as that described above, may not provide a
basis for comparison with other investments or other investment companies
using a different method of calculating performance.
        Comparative performance information may be used from time to time in
advertising or marketing the Fund's shares, including data from Lipper
Analytical Services, Inc., Moody's Bond Survey Bond Index, Lehman Brothers
Municipal Bond Index, Morningstar, Inc. and other industry publications. The
Fund's yield should generally be higher than money market funds (the Fund,
however, does not seek to maintain a stable price per share and may not be
able to return an investor's principal), and its price per share should
fluctuate less than long term bond funds (which generally have somewhat
higher yields).
                            GENERAL INFORMATION
        The Fund was organized as an unincorporated business trust under the
laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts pursuant to an Agreement and
Declaration of Trust (the "Trust Agreement") dated September 12, 1990, and
commenced operations on April 20, 1992. The Fund is authorized to issue an
unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, par value $.001 per share.
Each share has one vote.
   
        Under Massachusetts law, shareholders could, under certain
circumstances, be held personally liable for the obligations of the Fund.
However, the Trust Agreement disclaims shareholder liability for acts or
obligations of the Fund and requires that notice of such disclaimer be given
in each agreement, obligation or instrument entered into or executed by the
Fund or a Trustee. The Trust Agreement provides for indemnification from the
Fund's property for all losses and expenses of any shareholder held personally
 liable for the obligations of the Fund. Thus, the risk of a shareholder's
incurring financial loss on account of shareholder liability is limited to
circumstances in which the Fund itself would be unable to meet its
obligations, a possibility which management believes is remote. Upon payment
of any liability incurred by the Fund, the shareholder paying such liability
will be entitled to reimbursement from the general assets
                       Page 19
of the Fund. The Fund intends to conduct its operations in such a way so as
to avoid, as far as possible, ultimate liability of the shareholders for
liabilities of the Fund. As discussed under "Management of the Fund" in
the Statement of Additional Information, the Fund ordinarily will not hold
shareholder meetings; however, shareholders under certain circumstances may
have the right to call a meeting of shareholders for the purpose of voting to
remove Trustees.
    
        The Transfer Agent maintains a record of your ownership and will send
confirmations and statements of account.
        Shareholder inquiries may be made by writing to the Fund at 144 Glenn
Curtiss Boulevard, Uniondale, New York 11556-0144, or by calling toll free
1-800-645-6561; in New York City, call 1-718-895-1206; outside the U.S. and
Canada, call 516-794-5452.

                                  APPENDIX
INVESTMENT TECHNIQUES
    
   
BORROWING MONEY -- The Fund is permitted to borrow to the extent permitted
under the 1940 Act, which permits an investment company to borrow in an
amount up to 331/3% of the value of its total assets. The Fund currently
intends to borrow money only for temporary or emergency (not
leveraging)purposes, in an amount up to 15% of the value of its total assets
(including the amount borrowed) valued at the lesser of cost or market, less
liabilities (not including the amount borrowed) at the time the borrowing is
made. While borrowings exceed 5% of the Fund's total assets, the Fund will
not make any additional investments.
    
   
USE OF DERIVATIVES -- The Fund may invest in the types of Derivatives
enumerated under "Description of the Fund -- Investment Considerations and
Risks -- Use of Derivatives." These instruments and certain related risks are
described more specifically under "Investment Objective and Management
Policies -- Management Policies -- Derivatives" in the Statement of
Additional Information.
    
   
        Derivatives may entail investment exposures that are greater than
their cost would suggest, meaning that a small investment in Derivatives
could have a large potential impact on the Fund's performance.
    
   
        If the Fund invests in Derivatives at inappropriate times or judges
market conditions incorrectly, such investments may lower the Fund's return
or result in a loss. The Fund also could experience losses if its Derivatives
were poorly correlated with its other investments, or if the Fund were unable
to liquidate its position because of an illiquid secondary market. The market
for many Derivatives is, or suddenly can become, illiquid. Changes in
liquidity may result in significant, rapid and unpredictable changes in the
prices for Derivatives.
    
   
        Although the Fund will not be a commodity pool, Derivatives subject
the Fund to the rules of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission which limit
the extent to which the Fund can invest in certain Derivatives. The Fund may
invest in futures contracts and options with respect thereto for hedging
purposes without limit. However, the Fund may not invest in such contracts
and options for other purposes if the sum of the amount of initial margin
deposits and premiums paid for unexpired options with respect to such
contracts, other than for bona fide hedging purposes, exceed 5% of the
liquidation value of the Fund's assets, after taking into account unrealized
profits and unrealized losses on such contracts and options; provided,
however, that in the case of an option that is in-the-money at the time of
purchase, the in-the-money amount may be excluded in calculating the 5%
limitation.
    
   
        The Fund may invest up to 5% of its assets, represented by the
premium paid, in the purchase of call and put options. The Fund may write
(i.e., sell) covered call and put option contracts to the extent of 20% of
the value of its net assets at the time such option contracts are written.
When required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund will set
aside permissible liquid assets in a segregated account to cover its
obligations relating to its transactions in Derivatives. To maintain this
required cover, the Fund may have to sell portfolio securities at
disadvantageous prices or times since it may not be possible to liquidate
a Derivative position at a reasonable price.
    
   
LENDING PORTFOLIO SECURITIES -- The Fund may lend securities from its
portfolio to brokers, dealers and other financial institutions needing to
borrow securities to complete certain transactions. The Fund continues to be
entitled to payments in amounts equal to the interest or other distributions
payable on the loaned securities which affords the Fund an opportunity to
earn interest on the amount of the loan and on the loaned securities'
collateral. Loans of portfolio securities may not exceed 331/3% of the value
of the Fund's total assets, and the Fund will receive collateral consisting
of cash, U.S. Government securities or irrevocable letters of credit which
will be maintained at all times in an amount equal to at least 100% of the
current market value of the loaned securities. Such loans are terminable by
the Fund
                       Page 21
at any time upon specified notice. The Fund might experience risk of
loss if the institution with which it has engaged in a portfolio loan
transaction breaches its agreement with the Fund.
    
   
SHORT-SELLING -- In these transactions, the Fund sells a security it does not
own in anticipation of a decline in the market value of the security. To
complete the transaction, the Fund must borrow the security to make delivery
to the buyer. The Fund is obligated to replace the security borrowed by
purchasing it subsequently at the market price at the time of replacement.
The price at such time may be more or less than the price at which the
security was sold by the Fund, which would result in a loss or gain,
respectively.
    
   
        Securities will not be sold short if, after effect is given to any
such short sale, the total market value of all securities sold short would
exceed 25% of the value of the Fund's net assets. The Fund may not sell short
the securities of any single issuer listed on a national securities exchange
to the extent of more than 5% of the value of the Fund's net assets. The Fund
may not make a short sale which results in the Fund having sold short in the
aggregate more than 5% of the outstanding securities of any class of an
issuer.
    
   
        The Fund also may make short sales "against the box," in which the
Fund enters into a short sale of a security it owns in order to hedge an
unrealized gain on the security. At no time will more than 15% of the value
of the Fund's net assets be in deposits on short sales against the box.
    
   
FORWARD COMMITMENTS -- The Fund may purchase Municipal Obligations and other
securities on a forward commitment or when-issued basis, which means that
delivery and payment take place a number of days after the date of the
commitment to purchase. The payment obligation and the interest rate
receivable on a forward commitment or when-issued security are fixed when the
Fund enters into the commitment, but the Fund does not make payment until it
receives delivery from the counterparty. The Fund will commit to purchase
such securities only with the intention of actually acquiring the securities,
but the Fund may sell these securities before the settlement date if it is
deemed advisable. A segregated account of the Fund consisting of cash, cash
equivalents or U.S. Government securities or other high quality liquid debt
securities at least equal at all times to the amount of the commitments will
be established and maintained at the Fund's custodian bank.
    
   
CERTAIN PORTFOLIO SECURITIES
CERTAIN TAX EXEMPT OBLIGATIONS -- The Fund may purchase floating and variable
rate demand notes and bonds, which are tax exempt obligations ordinarily
having stated maturities in excess of one year, but which permit the holder
to demand payment of principal at any time, or at specified intervals.
Variable rate demand notes include master demand notes which are obligations
that permit the Fund to invest fluctuating amounts, at varying rates of
interest, pursuant to direct arrangements between the Fund, as lender, and
the borrower. These obligations permit daily changes in the amount borrowed.
Because these obligations are direct lending arrangements between the lender
and borrower, it is not contemplated that such instruments generally will be
traded, and there generally is no established secondary market for these
obligations, although they are redeemable at face value, plus accrued
interest. Accordingly, where these obligations are not secured by letters of
credit or other credit support arrangements, the Fund's right to redeem is
dependent on the ability of the borrower to pay principal and interest on
demand. Each obligation purchased by the Fund will meet the quality criteria
established for the purchase of Municipal Obligations.
    
   
TAX EXEMPT PARTICIPATION INTERESTS -- The Fund may purchase from financial
institutions participation interests in Municipal Obligations (such as
industrial development bonds and municipal lease/purchase agreements). A
participation interest gives the Fund an undivided interest in the Municipal
Obligation in the proportion that the Fund's participation interest bears to
the total principal amount of the Municipal Obligation. These instruments may
have fixed, floating or variable rates of interest. If the
                       Page 22
participation interest is unrated, it will be backed by an irrevocable letter
of credit or guarantee of a bank that the Fund's Board has determined meets
the prescribed quality standards for banks set forth below, or the payment
obligation otherwise will be collateralized by U.S. Government securities.
For certain participation interests, the Fund will have the right to demand
payment, on not more than seven days' notice, for all or any part of the
Fund's participation interest in the Municipal Obligation, plus accrued
interest. As to these instruments, the Fund intends to exercise its right to
demand payment only upon a default under the terms of the Municipal
Obligation, as needed to provide liquidity to meet redemptions, or to
maintain or improve the quality of its investment portfolio.
    
   
TENDER OPTION BONDS -- The Fund may purchase tender option bonds. A tender
option bond is a Municipal Obligation (generally held pursuant to a custodial
arrangement) having a relatively long maturity and bearing interest at a
fixed rate substantially higher than prevailing short-term tax exempt rates,
that has been coupled with the agreement of a third party, such as a bank,
broker-dealer or other financial institution, pursuant to which such
institution grants the security holders the option, at periodic intervals, to
tender their securities to the institution and receive the face value
thereof. As consideration for providing the option, the financial institution
receives periodic fees equal to the difference between the Municipal
Obligation's fixed coupon rate and the rate, as determined by a remarketing
or similar agent at or near the commencement of such period, that would cause
the securities, coupled with the tender option, to trade at par on the date
of such determination. Thus, after payment of this fee, the security holder
effectively holds a demand obligation that bears interest at the prevailing
short-term tax exempt rate. The Dreyfus Corporation, on behalf of the Fund,
will consider on an ongoing basis the creditworthiness of the issuer of the
underlying Municipal Obligation, of any custodian and of the third party
provider of the tender option. In certain instances and for certain tender
option bonds, the option may be terminable in the event of a default in
payment of principal or interest on the underlying Municipal Obligations and
for other reasons.
    
   
CUSTODIAL RECEIPTS -- The Fund may purchase custodial receipts representing
the right to receive certain future principal and interest payments on
Municipal Obligations which underlie the custodial receipts. A number of
different arrangements are possible. In a typical custodial receipt
arrangement, an issuer or a third party owner of Municipal Obligations
deposits such obligations with a custodian in exchange for two classes of
custodial receipts. The two classes have different characteristics, but, in
each case, payments on the two classes are based on payments received on the
underlying Municipal Obligations. One class has the characteristics of a
typical auction rate security, where at specified intervals its interest rate
is adjusted, and ownership changes, based on an auction mechanism. This
class's interest rate generally is expected to be below the coupon rate of
the underlying Municipal Obligations and generally is at a level comparable
to that of a Municipal Obligation of similar quality and having a maturity
equal to the period between interest rate adjustments. The second class bears
interest at a rate that exceeds the interest rate typically borne by a
security of comparable quality and maturity; this rate also is adjusted, but
in this case inversely to changes in the rate of interest of the first class.
If the interest rate on the first class exceeds the coupon rate of the
underlying Municipal Obligations, its interest rate will exceed the rate paid
on the second class. In no event will the aggregate interest paid with
respect to the two classes exceed the interest paid by the underlying
Municipal Obligations. The value of the second class and similar securities
should be expected to fluctuate more than the value of a Municipal Obligation
of comparable quality and maturity and their purchase by the Fund should
increase the volatility of its net asset value and, thus, its price per
share. These custodial receipts are sold in private placements. The Fund also
may purchase directly from issuers, and not in a private placement, Municipal
Obligations having characteristics similar to custodial receipts. These
securities may be issued as part of a multi-class offering and the interest
rate on certain classes may be subject to a cap or a floor.
    
                       Page 23
   
STAND-BY COMMITMENTS -- The Fund may acquire "stand-by commitments" with
respect to Municipal Obligations held in its portfolio. Under a stand-by
commitment, the Fund obligates a broker, dealer or bank to repurchase, at the
Fund's option, specified securities at a specified price and, in this
respect, stand-by commitments are comparable to put options. The exercise of
a stand-by commitment therefore is subject to the ability of the seller to
make payment on demand. The Fund will acquire stand-by commitments solely to
facilitate portfolio liquidity and does not intend to exercise its rights
thereunder for trading purposes. The Fund may pay for stand-by commitments if
such action is deemed necessary, thus increasing to a degree the cost of the
underlying Municipal Obligation and similarly decreasing such security's
yield to investors. The Fund also may acquire call options on specific
Municipal Obligations. The Fund generally would purchase these call options
to protect the Fund from the issuer of the related Municipal Obligation
redeeming, or other holder of the call option from calling away, the
Municipal Obligation before maturity. The sale by the Fund of a call option
that it owns on a specific Municipal Obligation could result in the receipt
of taxable income by the Fund.
    
   
ZERO COUPON SECURITIES -- The Fund may invest in zero coupon securities which
are debt securities issued or sold at a discount from their face value which
do not entitle the holder to any periodic payment of interest prior to
maturity or a specified redemption date (or cash payment date). The amount of
the discount varies depending on the time remaining until maturity or cash
payment date, prevailing interest rates, liquidity of the security and
perceived credit quality of the issuer. Zero coupon securities also may take
the form of debt securities that have been stripped of their unmatured
interest coupons, the coupons themselves and receipts or certificates
representing interests in such stripped debt obligations and coupons. The
market prices of zero coupon securities generally are more volatile than the
market prices of securities that pay interest periodically and are likely to
respond to a greater degree to changes in interest rates than non-zero coupon
securities having similar maturities and credit qualities.
    
   
ILLIQUID SECURITIES -- The Fund may invest up to 15% of the value of its net
assets in securities as to which a liquid trading market does not exist,
provided such investments are consistent with the Fund's investment
objective. Such securities may include securities that are not readily
marketable, such as certain securities that are subject to legal or
contractual restrictions on resale, and repurchase agreements providing for
settlement in more than seven days after notice. As to these securities, the
Fund is subject to a risk that should the Fund desire to sell them when a
ready buyer is not available at a price that the Fund deems representative of
their value, the value of the Fund's net assets could be adversely affected.
    
   
TAXABLE INVESTMENTS -- From time to time, on a temporary basis other than for
temporary defensive purposes (but not to exceed 20% of the value of the
Fund's net assets) or for temporary defensive purposes, the Fund may invest
in taxable short-term investments ("Taxable Investments") consisting of:
notes of issuers having, at the time of purchase, a quality rating within the
two highest grades of Moody's, S&P or Fitch; obligations of the U.S.
Government, its agencies or instrumentalities; commercial paper rated not
lower than P-l by Moody's, A-l by S&P or F-l by Fitch; certificates of
deposit of U.S. domestic banks, including foreign branches of domestic banks,
with assets of one billion dollars or more; time deposits; bankers'
acceptances and other short-term bank obligations; and repurchase agreements
in respect of any of the foregoing. Dividends paid by the Fund that are
attributable to income earned by the Fund from Taxable Investments will be
taxable to investors. See "Dividends, Distributions and Taxes." Except for
temporary defensive purposes, at no time will more than 20% of the value of
the Fund's net assets be invested in Taxable Investments. When the Fund has
adopted a temporary defensive position, including when acceptable California
Municipal Obligations are unavailable for investment by the Fund, in excess
of 35% of the Fund's net assets may be invested in securities that are not
exempt from California personal income tax. Under normal market conditions,
the Fund
                       Page 24
anticipates that not more than 5% of the value of its total assets
will be invested in any one category of Taxable Investments. Taxable
Investments are more fully described in the Statement of Additional
Information, to which reference hereby is made.
    
   
RATINGS -- Bonds rated Ba by Moody's are judged to have speculative elements;
their future cannot be considered as well assured and often the protection of
interest and principal payments may be very moderate. Bonds rated BB by S&P
are regarded as having predominantly speculative characteristics and, while
such obligations have less near-term vulnerability to default than other
speculative grade debt, they face major ongoing uncertainties or exposure to
adverse business, financial or economic conditions which could lead to
inadequate capacity to meet timely interest and principal payments. Bonds
rated BB by Fitch are considered speculative and the payment of principal and
interest may be affected at any time by adverse economic changes. Bonds
rated C by Moody's are regarded as having extremely poor prospects of ever
attaining any real investment standing. Bonds rated D by S&P are in default
and the payment of interest and/or repayment of principal is in arrears.
Bonds rated DDD, DD or D by Fitch are in actual or imminent default, are
extremely speculative and should be valued on the basis of their ultimate
recovery value in liquidation or reorganization of the issuer; DDD represents
the highest potential for recovery of such bonds; and D represents, the
lowest potential for recovery. Such bonds, though high yielding, are
characterized by great risk. See "Appendix B" in the Statement of
Additional Information for a general description of Moody's, S&P and Fitch
ratings of Municipal Obligations.
    
   
        The ratings of Moody's, S&P and Fitch represent their opinions as to
the quality of the Municipal Obligations which they undertake to rate. It
should be emphasized, however, that ratings are relative and subjective and,
although ratings may be useful in evaluating the safety of interest and
principal payments, they do not evaluate the market value risk of these
bonds. Therefore, although these ratings may be an initial criterion for
selection of portfolio investments, The Dreyfus Corporation also will
evaluate these securities and the ability of the issuers of such securities
to pay interest and principal. The Fund's ability to achieve its investment
objective may be more dependent on The Dreyfus Corporation's credit analysis
than might be the case for a fund that invested in higher rated securities.

______________________________________________
*   Included in the Not Rated category are securities comprising 3.8% of
    the Fund's market value which, while not rated, have been determined
    by the Manager to be of comparable quality to securities in the
    following rating categories:  A/A (3.8%).
    
      Municipal Obligations.  The term "Municipal Obligations" generally
includes debt obligations issued to obtain funds for various public
purposes, including the construction of a wide range of public facilities
such as airports, bridges, highways, housing, hospitals, mass
transportation, schools, streets and water and sewer works. Other public
purposes for which Municipal Obligations may be issued include refunding
outstanding obligations, obtaining funds for general operating expenses
and lending such funds to other public institutions and facilities.  In
addition, certain types of industrial development bonds are issued by or
on behalf of public authorities to obtain funds to provide for the
construction, equipment, repair or improvement of privately operated
housing facilities, sports facilities, convention or trade show
facilities, airport, mass transit, industrial, port or parking facilities,
air or water pollution control facilities and certain local facilities for
water supply, gas, electricity, or sewage or solid waste disposal; the
interest paid on such obligations may be exempt from Federal income tax,
although current tax laws place substantial limitations on the size of
such issues.  Such obligations are considered to be Municipal Obligations
if the interest paid thereon qualifies as exempt from Federal income tax
in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer.  There are, of course,
variations in the security of Municipal Obligations, both within a
particular classification and between classifications.

      Floating and variable rate demand notes and bonds are tax exempt
obligations ordinarily having stated maturities in excess of one year, but
which permit the holder to demand payment of principal at any time, or at
specified intervals.  The issuer of such obligations ordinarily has a
corresponding right, after a given period, to prepay in its discretion the
outstanding principal amount of the obligations plus accrued interest upon
a specified number of days' notice to the holders thereof.  The interest
rate on a floating rate demand obligation is based on a known lending
rate, such as a bank's prime rate, and is adjusted automatically each time
such rate is adjusted.  The interest rate on a variable rate demand
obligation is adjusted automatically at specified intervals.

      The yields on Municipal Obligations are dependent on a variety of
factors, including general economic and monetary conditions, money market
factors, conditions in the Municipal Obligations market, size of a
particular offering, maturity of the obligation, and rating of the issue.
The imposition of the Fund's management fee, as well as other operating
expenses, will have the effect of reducing the yield to investors.

      Municipal lease obligations or installment purchase contract
obligations (collectively, "lease obligations") have special risks not
ordinarily associated with Municipal Obligations.  Although lease
obligations do not constitute general obligations of the municipality for
which the municipality's taxing power is pledged, a lease obligation
ordinarily is backed by the municipality's covenant to budget for,
appropriate and make the payments due under the lease obligation.
However, certain lease obligations contain "non-appropriation" clauses
which provide that the municipality has no obligation to make lease or
installment purchase payments in future years unless money is appropriated
for such purpose on a yearly basis.  Although "non-appropriation" lease
obligations are secured by the leased property, disposition of the
property in the event of foreclosure might prove difficult.  The staff of
the Securities and Exchange Commission currently considers certain lease
obligations to be illiquid.  Determination as to the liquidity of such
securities is made in accordance with guidelines established by the Fund's
Board.  Pursuant to such guidelines, the Board has directed the Manager to
monitor carefully the Fund's investment in such securities with particular
regard to (1) the frequency of trades and quotes for the lease obligation;
(2) the number of dealers willing to purchase or sell the lease obligation
and the number of other potential buyers; (3) the willingness of dealers
to undertake to make a market in the lease obligation; (4) the nature of
the marketplace trades including the time needed to dispose of the lease
obligation, the method of soliciting offers and the mechanics of transfer;
and (5) such other factors concerning the trading market for the lease
obligation as the Manager may deem relevant.  In addition, in evaluating
the liquidity and credit quality of a lease obligation that is unrated,
the Fund's Board has directed the Manager to consider (a) whether the
lease can be cancelled; (b) what assurance there is that the assets
represented by the lease can be sold; (c) the strength of the lessee's
general credit  (e.g., its debt, administrative, economic, and financial
characteristics); (d) the likelihood that the municipality will
discontinue appropriating funding for the leased property because the
property is no longer deemed essential to the operations of the
municipality (e.g., the potential for an "event of nonappropriation"); (e)
the legal recourse in the event of failure to appropriate; and (f) such
other factors concerning credit quality as the Manager may deem relevant.
The Fund will not invest more than 15% of the value of its net assets in
lease obligations that are illiquid and in other illiquid securities.  See
"Investment Restriction No. 11" below.

      The Fund will purchase tender option bonds only when it is satisfied
that the custodial and tender option arrangements, including the fee
payment arrangements, will not adversely affect the tax exempt status of
the underlying Municipal Obligations and that payment of any tender fees
will not have the effect of creating taxable income for the Fund.  Based
on the tender option bond agreement, the Fund expects to be able to value
the tender option bond at par; however, the value of the instrument will
be monitored to assure that it is valued at fair value.

      Ratings of Municipal Obligations.  Subsequent to its purchase by the
Fund, an issue of rated Municipal Obligations may cease to be rated or its
rating may be reduced below the minimum required for purchase by the Fund.
Neither event will require the sale of such Municipal Obligations by the
Fund, but the Manager will consider such event in determining whether the
Fund should continue to hold the Municipal Obligations.  To the extent
that the ratings given by Moody's, S&P or Fitch for Municipal Obligations
may change as a result of changes in such organizations or their rating
systems, the Fund will attempt to use comparable ratings as standards for
its investments in accordance with the investment policies contained in
the Fund's Prospectus and this Statement of Additional Information.  The
ratings of Moody's, S&P and Fitch represent their opinions as to the
quality of the Municipal Obligations which they undertake to rate.  It
should be emphasized, however, that ratings are relative and subjective
and are not absolute standards of quality.  Although these ratings may be
an initial criterion for selection of portfolio investments, the Manager
also will evaluate these securities and the creditworthiness of the
issuers of such securities.
   
      Illiquid Securities.  Where a substantial market of qualified
institutional buyers develops for certain restricted securities purchased
by the Fund pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, the Fund intends to treat such securities as liquid securities in
accordance with procedures approved by the Fund's Board.  Because it is
not possible to predict with assurance how the market for restricted
securities pursuant to Rule 144A will develop, the Fund's Board has
directed the Manager to monitor carefully the Fund's investments in such
securities with particular regard to trading activity, availability of
reliable price information and other relevant information.  To the extent
that, for a period of time, qualified institutional buyers cease
purchasing restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144A, the Fund's
investing in such securities may have the effect of increasing the level
of illiquidity in the Fund's portfolio during such period.
    
   
      Taxable Investments.  Securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
Government or its agencies or instrumentalities include U.S. Treasury
securities, which differ in their interest rates, maturities and times of
issuance.  Some obligations issued or guaranteed by U.S. Government
agencies and instrumentalities are supported by the full faith and credit
of the U.S. Treasury; others by the right of the issuer to borrow from the
U.S. Treasury; others by discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to
purchase certain obligations of the agency or instrumentality; and others
only by the credit of the agency or instrumentality.  These securities
bear fixed, floating or variable rates of interest.  While the U.S.
Government provides financial support to such U.S. Government-sponsored
agencies or instrumentalities, no assurance can be given that it will
always do so, since it is not so obligated by law.
    
      Commercial paper consists of short-term, unsecured promissory notes
issued to finance short-term credit needs.

      Certificates of deposit are negotiable certificates representing the
obligation of a bank to repay funds deposited with it for a specified
period of time.
   
      Time deposits are non-negotiable deposits maintained in a banking
institution for a specified period of time (in no event longer than seven
days) at a stated interest rate.  Investments in time deposits generally
are limited to London branches of domestic banks that have total assets in
excess of one billion dollars.  Time deposits which may be held by the
Fund will not benefit from insurance from the Bank Insurance Fund or the
Savings Association Insurance Fund administered by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation.
    
      Bankers' acceptances are credit instruments evidencing the obligation
of a bank to pay a draft drawn on it by a customer.  These instruments
reflect the obligation both of the bank and of the drawer to pay the face
amount of the instrument upon maturity.   Other short-term bank
obligations may include uninsured, direct obligations bearing fixed,
floating or variable interest rates.
   
      In a repurchase agreement, the Fund buys, and the seller agrees to
repurchase, a security at a mutually agreed upon time and price (usually
within seven days).  The repurchase agreement thereby determines the yield
during the purchaser's holding period, while the seller's obligation to
repurchase is secured by the value of the underlying security.  The Fund's
custodian or sub-custodian will have custody of, and will hold in a
segregated account, securities acquired by the Fund under a repurchase
agreement.  Repurchase agreements are considered by the staff of the
Securities and Exchange Commission to be loans by the Fund.  In an attempt
to reduce the risk of incurring a loss on a repurchase agreement, the Fund
will enter into repurchase agreements only with domestic banks with total
assets in excess of $1 billion, or primary government securities dealers
reporting to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, with respect to
securities of the type in which the Fund may invest, and will require that
additional securities be deposited with it if the value of the securities
purchased should decrease below resale price.  Repurchase agreements could
involve risks in the event of a default or insolvency of the other party
to the agreement, including possible delays or restrictions upon the
Fund's ability to dispose of the underlying securities.
    
   
Management Policies
    
   
      Derivatives.  The Fund may invest in Derivatives (as defined in the
Prospectus) for a variety of reasons, including to hedge certain market
risks, to provide a substitute for purchasing or selling particular
securities or to increase potential income gain.  Derivatives may provide
a cheaper, quicker or more specifically focused way for the Fund to invest
than "traditional" securities would.
    
   
      Derivatives can be volatile and involve various types and degrees of
risk, depending upon the characteristics of the particular Derivative and
the portfolio as a whole.  Derivatives permit the Fund to increase or
decrease the level of risk, or change the character of the risk, to which
its portfolio is exposed in much the same way as the Fund can increase or
decrease the level of risk, or change the character of the risk, of its
portfolio by making investments in specific securities.
    
   
      Derivatives may be purchased on established exchanges or through
privately negotiated transactions referred to as over-the-counter
Derivatives.  Exchange-traded Derivatives generally are guaranteed by the
clearing agency which is the issuer or counterparty to such Derivatives.
This guarantee usually is supported by a daily payment system (i.e.,
variation margin requirements) operated by the clearing agency in order to
reduce overall credit risk.  As a result, unless the clearing agency
defaults, there is relatively little counterparty credit risk associated
with Derivatives purchased on an exchange.  By contrast, no clearing
agency guarantees over-the-counter Derivatives.  Therefore, each party to
an over-the-counter Derivative bears the risk that the counterparty will
default.  Accordingly, the Manager will consider the creditworthiness of
counterparties to over-the-counter Derivatives in the same manner as it
would review the credit quality of a security to be purchased by the Fund.
Over-the-counter Derivatives are less liquid than exchange-traded
Derivatives since the other party to the transaction may be the only
investor with sufficient understanding of the Derivative to be interested
in bidding for it.
    
   
Futures Transactions--In General.  The Fund may enter into futures
contracts in U.S. domestic markets, such as the Chicago Board of Trade.
Engaging in these transactions involves risk of loss to the Fund which
could adversely affect the value of the Fund's net assets.  Although the
Fund intends to purchase or sell futures contracts only if there is an
active market for such contracts, no assurance can be given that a liquid
market will exist for any particular contract at any particular time.
Many futures exchanges and boards of trade limit the amount of fluctuation
permitted in futures contract prices during a single trading day.  Once
the daily limit has been reached in a particular contract, no trades may
be made that day at a price beyond that limit or trading may be suspended
for specified periods during the trading day.  Futures contract prices
could move to the limit for several consecutive trading days with little
or no trading, thereby preventing prompt liquidation of futures positions
and potentially subjecting the Fund to substantial losses.
    
   
      Successful use of futures by the Fund also is subject to the
Manager's ability to predict correctly movements in the direction of the
relevant market and, to the extent the transaction is entered into for
hedging purposes, to ascertain the appropriate correlation between the
transaction being hedged and the price movements of the futures contract.
For example, if the Fund uses futures to hedge against the possibility of
a decline in the market value of securities held in its portfolio and the
prices of such securities instead increase, the Fund will lose part or all
of the benefit of the increased value of securities which it has hedged
because it will have offsetting losses in its futures positions.
Furthermore, if in such circumstances the Fund has insufficient cash, it
may have to sell securities to meet daily variation margin requirements.
The Fund may have to sell such securities at a time when it may be
disadvantageous to do so.
    
   
      Pursuant to regulations and/or published positions of the Securities
and Exchange Commission, the Fund may be required to segregate cash or
high quality money market instruments in connection with its commodities
transactions in an amount generally equal to the value of the underlying
commodity.  The segregation of such assets will have the effect of
limiting the Fund's ability otherwise to invest those assets.
    
   
Specific Futures Transactions.  The Fund may purchase and sell interest
rate futures contracts.  An interest rate future obligates the Fund to
purchase or sell an amount of a specific debt security at a future date at
a specific price.
    
   
      The Fund may purchase and sell municipal bond index futures
contracts.  Municipal bond index futures contracts are based on an index
of Municipal Obligations.  The index assigns relative values to the
Municipal Obligations included in the index, and fluctuates with changes
in the market value of such Municipal Obligations.  The contract is an
agreement pursuant to which two parties agree to take or make delivery of
an amount of cash based upon the difference between the value of the index
at the close of the last trading day of the contract and the price at
which the index contract was originally written.
    
   
Options--In General.  The Fund may purchase and write (i.e., sell) call or
put options with respect to specific securities and may purchase call and
put options or futures contracts.  A call option gives the purchaser of
the option the right to buy, and obligates the writer to sell, the
underlying security or securities at the exercise price at any time during
the option period, or at a specific date.  Conversely, a put option gives
the purchaser of the option the right to sell, and obligates the writer to
buy, the underlying security or securities at the exercise price at any
time during the option period.
    
   
      A covered call option written by the Fund is a call option with
respect to which the Fund owns the underlying security or otherwise covers
the transaction by segregating cash or other securities.  A put option
written by the Fund is covered when, among other things, cash or liquid
securities having a value equal to or greater than the exercise price of
the option are placed in a segregated account with the Fund's custodian to
fulfill the obligation undertaken.  The principal reason for writing
covered call and put options is to realize, through the receipt of
premiums, a greater return than would be realized on the underlying
securities alone.  The Fund receives a premium from writing covered call
or put options which it retains whether or not the option is exercised.
    
   
      There is no assurance that sufficient trading interest to create a
liquid secondary market on a securities exchange will exist for any
particular option or at any particular time, and for some options no such
secondary market may exist.  A liquid secondary market in an option may
cease to exist for a variety of reasons.  In the past, for example, higher
than anticipated trading activity or order flow, or other unforeseen
events, at times have rendered certain of the clearing facilities
inadequate and resulted in the institution of special procedures, such as
trading rotations, restrictions on certain types of orders or trading
halts or suspensions in one or more options.  There can be no assurance
that similar events, or events that may otherwise interfere with the
timely execution of customers' orders, will not recur.  In such event, it
might not be possible to effect closing transactions in particular
options.  If, as a covered call option writer, the Fund is unable to
effect a closing purchase transaction in a secondary market, it will not
be able to sell the underlying security until the option expires or it
delivers the underlying security upon exercise or it otherwise covers its
position.
    
   
      Successful use by the Fund of options will be subject to the
Manager's ability to predict correctly movements in interest rates.  To
the extent the Manager's predictions are incorrect, the Fund may incur
losses.
    
   
      Future Developments.  The Fund may take advantage of opportunities in
the area of options and futures contracts and options on futures contracts
and any other Derivatives which are not presently contemplated for use by
the Fund or which are not currently available but which may be developed,
to the extent such opportunities are both consistent with the Fund's
investment objective and legally permissible for the Fund.  Before
entering into such transactions or making any such investment, the Fund
will provide appropriate disclosure in its Prospectus or Statement of
Additional Information.
    
   
      Forward Commitments.  Municipal Obligations and other securities
purchased on a forward commitment or when-issued basis are subject to
changes in value (generally changing in the same way, i.e., appreciating
when interest rates decline and depreciating when interest rates rise)
based upon the public's perception of the creditworthiness of the issuer
and changes, real or anticipated, in the level of interest rates.
Securities purchased on a forward commitment or when-issued basis may
expose the Fund to risks because they may experience such fluctuations
prior to their actual delivery.  Purchasing securities on a when-issued
basis can involve the additional risk that the yield available in the
market when the delivery takes place actually may be higher than that
obtained in the transaction itself.  Purchasing securities on a forward
commitment or when-issued basis when the Fund is fully or almost fully
invested may result in greater potential fluctuation in the value of the
Fund's net assets and its net asset value per share.
    
   
      Lending Portfolio Securities.  In connection with its securities
lending transactions, the Fund may return to the borrower or a third party
which is unaffiliated with the Fund, and which is acting as a "placing
broker," a part of the interest earned from the investment of collateral
received for securities loaned.
    
      The Securities and Exchange Commission currently requires that the
following conditions must be met whenever portfolio securities are loaned:
(1) the Fund must receive at least 100% cash collateral from the borrower;
(2) the borrower must increase such collateral whenever the market value
of the securities rises above the level of such collateral; (3) the Fund
must be able to terminate the loan at any time; (4) the Fund must receive
reasonable interest on the loan, as well as any interest or other
distributions payable on the loaned securities, and any increase in market
value; and (5) the Fund may pay only reasonable custodian fees in
connection with the loan.  These conditions may be subject to future
modification.
   
      Short-Selling.  Until the Fund replaces a borrowed security in
connection with a short sale, the Fund will: (a) maintain a segregated
account, containing cash or U.S. Government securities, at such a level
that the amount deposited in the account plus the amount deposited with
the broker as collateral always equals the current value of the security
sold short; or (b) otherwise cover its short position.
    
   
Investment Considerations and Risks
    
   
      Investing in California Municipal Obligations.  Investors should
consider carefully the special risks inherent in the Fund's investment in
California Municipal Obligations.  These risks result from certain
amendments to the California Constitution and other statutes that limit
the taxing and spending authority of California governmental entities, as
well as from the general financial condition of the State of California.
From mid 1990 to late 1993, the State suffered a recession with the worst
economic, fiscal and budget conditions since the 1930s.  As a result, the
State experienced recurring budget deficits for four of the last five
fiscal years ended June 30, 1992.  The State had operating surpluses of
approximately $109 million in fiscal 1992-93 and $917 million in fiscal
1993-94.  However, at June 30, 1994, according to California's Department
of Finance, the State's Special Fund for Economic Uncertainties had an
accumulated deficit, on a budget basis, of approximately $1.8 billion.  A
further consequence of the large budget imbalances has been that the State
depleted its available cash resources and has had to use a series of
external borrowings to meet its cash needs.  To meet its cash flow needs
in the 1994-95 fiscal year, the State issued, in July and August 1994,
$4.0 billion of revenue anticipation warrants and $3.0 billion of revenue
anticipation notes.  The 1994-95 Budget Act contained a plan to retire a
projected $1.025 billion deficit in the 1995-96 fiscal year.  As a result
of the deterioration of the State's budget and cash situation between
October 1991 and July 1994, the rating on the State's general obligation
bonds was reduced by S&P from AAA to A, by Moody's from Aaa to A1 and by
Fitch AAA to A.  These and other factors may have the effect of impairing
the ability of the issuers of California Municipal Obligations to pay
interest on, or repay principal of, such California Municipal Obligations.
Investors should review "Appendix A" which sets froth additional
information relating to investing in California Municipal Obligations.
    
   
      Lower Rated Bonds.  The Fund is permitted to invest in securities
rated Ba or lower by Moody's or BB or lower by S&P and Fitch and as low as
the lowest rating assigned by Moody's, S&P or Fitch.  Such bonds, though
higher yielding, are characterized by risk.  See "Description of the Fund-
- -Investment Considerations and Risks--Lower Rated Bonds" in the Prospectus
for a discussion of certain risks and "Appendix B" in this Statement of
Additional Information for a general description of Moody's, S&P and Fitch
ratings of Municipal Obligations.  Although ratings may be useful in
evaluating the safety of interest and principal payments, they do not
evaluate the market value risk of these bonds.  The Fund will rely on the
Manager's judgment, analysis and experience in evaluating the
creditworthiness of an issuer.
    
   
      Investors should be aware that the market values of many of these
bonds tend to be more sensitive to economic conditions than are higher
rated securities.  These bonds generally are considered by S&P, Moody's
and Fitch to be predominantly speculative with respect to capacity to pay
interest and repay principal in accordance with the terms of the
obligation and generally will involve more credit risk than securities in
the higher rating categories.
    
      Because there is no established retail secondary market for many of
these securities, the Fund anticipates that such securities could be sold
only to a limited number of dealers or institutional investors.  To the
extent a secondary trading market for these bonds does exist, it generally
is not as liquid as the secondary market for higher rated securities.  The
lack of a liquid secondary market may have an adverse impact on market
price and yield and the Fund's ability to dispose of particular issues
when necessary to meet the Fund's liquidity needs or in response to a
specific economic event such as a deterioration in the creditworthiness of
the issuer.  The lack of a liquid secondary market for certain securities
also may make it more difficult for the Fund to obtain accurate market
quotations for purposes of valuing the Fund's portfolio and calculating
its net asset value.  Adverse publicity and investor perceptions, whether
or not based on fundamental analysis, may decrease the values and
liquidity of these securities.  In such cases, judgment may play a greater
role in valuation because less reliable, objective data may be available.

      These bonds may be particularly susceptible to economic downturn.  It
is likely that any economic recession could disrupt severely the market
for such securities and may have an adverse impact on the value of such
securities.  In addition, it is likely that any such economic downturn
could adversely affect the ability of the issuers of such securities to
repay principal and pay interest thereon and increase the incidence of
default for such securities.

      The Fund may acquire these bonds during an initial offering.  Such
securities may involve special risks because they are new issues.  The
Fund has no arrangement with any persons concerning the acquisition of
such securities, and the Manager will review carefully the credit and
other characteristics pertinent to such new issues.
   
      The credit risk factors pertaining to lower rated securities also
apply to lower rated zero coupon bonds in which the Fund may invest up to
5% of its net assets.  Zero coupon bonds carry an additional risk in that,
unlike bonds which pay interest throughout the period to maturity, the
Fund will realize no cash until the cash payment date unless a portion of
such securities are sold and, if the issuer defaults, the Fund may obtain
no return at all on its investment.  See "Dividends, Distributions and
Taxes."
    
   
      The Fund has adopted investment restrictions numbered 1 through 6 as
fundamental policies, which cannot be changed without approval by the
holders of a majority (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended (the "1940 Act")) of the Fund's outstanding voting shares.
Investment restrictions numbered 7 through 12 are not fundamental policies
and may be changed by vote of a majority of the Fund's Board members at
any time.  The Fund may not:
    
   
      1.   Borrow money to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act (which
currently limits borrowing to no more than 33-1/3% of the Fund's total
assets).  For purposes of this investment restriction, the entry into
options, forward contracts, including those relating to indices, and
options on futures contracts or indices shall not constitute borrowing.
    
      2.   Purchase or sell real estate, real estate investment trust
securities, commodities or commodity contracts, or oil and gas interests,
but this shall not prevent the Fund from investing in Municipal
Obligations secured by real estate or interests therein, or prevent the
Fund from purchasing and selling futures contracts, including those
relating to indices, and options on futures contracts or indices.

      3.   Underwrite the securities of other issuers, except that the Fund
may bid separately or as part of a group for the purchase of Municipal
Obligations directly from an issuer for its own portfolio to take
advantage of the lower purchase price available, and except to the extent
the Fund may be deemed an underwriter under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, by virtue of disposing of portfolio securities.

      4.   Make loans to others, except through the purchase of debt
obligations and the entry into repurchase agreements; however, the Fund
may lend its portfolio securities in an amount not to exceed 33-1/3% of the
value of its total assets.  Any loans of portfolio securities will be made
according to guidelines established by the Securities and Exchange
Commission and the Fund's Board.

      5.   Invest more than 25% of its total assets in the securities of
issuers in any single industry; provided that there shall be no such
limitation on the purchase of Municipal Obligations and, for temporary
defensive purposes, obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
Government, its agencies or instrumentalities.
   
      6.   Issue any senior security (as such term is defined in Section
18(f) of the 1940 Act), except to the extent that the activities permitted
in Investment Restriction Nos. 1, 2, 8 and 10 may be deemed to give rise
to a senior security.
    
      7.   Purchase securities other than Municipal Obligations and Taxable
Investments and those arising out of transactions in futures and options
or as otherwise provided in the Fund's Prospectus.

      8.   Purchase securities on margin, but the Fund may make margin
deposits in connection with transactions in futures, including those
relating to indices, and options on futures or indices.

      9.   Invest in securities of other investment companies, except as
they may be acquired as part of a merger, consolidation or acquisition of
assets.

      10.  Pledge, hypothecate, mortgage or otherwise encumber its assets,
except to the extent necessary to secure permitted borrowings, and to the
extent related to the deposit of assets in escrow in connection with the
purchase of securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis and
collateral arrangements with respect to futures contracts, including those
related to indices, and options on futures contracts or indices and
collateral arrangements with respect to initial or variation margin for
futures contracts, including those relating to indices, and options on
futures contracts or indices.

      11.  Enter into repurchase agreements providing for settlement in
more than seven days after notice or purchase securities which are
illiquid (which securities could include participation interests
(including municipal lease/purchase agreements) that are not subject to
the demand feature described in the Fund's Prospectus, and floating and
variable rate demand obligations as to which the Fund cannot exercise the
demand feature described in the Fund's Prospectus on less than seven days'
notice and as to which there is no secondary market), if, in the
aggregate, more than 15% of its net assets would be so invested.

      12.  Invest in companies for the purpose of exercising control.

      For purposes of Investment Restriction No. 5, industrial development
bonds, where the payment of principal and interest is the ultimate
responsibility of companies within the same industry, are grouped together
as an "industry."  If a percentage restriction is adhered to at the time
of investment, a later increase or decrease in percentage resulting from a
change in values or assets will not constitute a violation of such
restriction.

      The Fund may make commitments more restrictive than the restrictions
listed above so as to permit the sale of Fund shares in certain states.
Should the Fund determine that a commitment is no longer in the best
interests of the Fund and its shareholders, the Fund reserves the right to
revoke the commitment by terminating the sale of Fund shares in the state
involved.

      For so long as the Fund's plan described in the section captioned
"Shareholder Services Plan" remains in effect, the Board members of the
Fund who are not "interested persons" of the Fund, as defined in the 1940
Act, will be selected and nominated by the Board members who are not
"interested persons" of the Fund.
    
   
      Ordinarily meetings of shareholders for the purpose of electing Board
members will not be held unless and until such time as less than a
majority of the Board members holding office have been elected by
shareholders, at which time the Board members then in office will call a
shareholders' meeting for the election of Board members.  Under the 1940
Act, shareholders of record of not less than two-thirds of the outstanding
shares of the Fund may remove a Board member through a declaration in
writing or by vote cast in person or by proxy at a meeting called for that
purpose.  The Board members are required to call a meeting of shareholders
for the purpose of voting upon the question of removal of any such Board
member when requested in writing to do so by the holders of record of not
less than 10% of the Fund's outstanding shares.
    
   
      The Fund typically pays its Board members an annual retainer and a
per meeting fee and reimburses them for their expenses.  The Chairman of
the Board receives an additional 25% of such compensation.  Emeritus Board
members are entitled to receive an annual retainer and a per meeting fee
of one-half the amount paid to them as Board members.  The aggregate
amount of compensation paid to each Board member by the Fund for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 1996, and by all other funds in the Dreyfus
Family of Funds for which such person is a Board member (the number of
which is set forth in parenthesis next to each Board member's total
compensation) for year ended December 31, 1995, were as follows:

                                MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

      The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled "Management
of the Fund."
   
      The Manager provides management services pursuant to the Management
Agreement (the "Agreement") dated August 24, 1994 with the Fund, which is
subject to annual approval by (i) the Fund's Board or (ii) vote of a
majority (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the outstanding voting securities
of the Fund, provided that in either event the continuance also is
approved by a majority of the Board members who are not "interested
persons" (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund or the Manager, by vote
cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such
approval.  The Agreement was approved by shareholders of the Fund on
August 3, 1994, and was last approved by the Fund's Board, including a
majority of the Board members who are not "interested persons" of any
party to the Agreement, at a meeting held on February 7, 1996.  The
Agreement is terminable without penalty, on 60 days' notice, by the Fund's
Board or by vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund's shares, or, on
not less than 90 days' notice, by the Manager.  The Agreement will
terminate automatically in the event of its assignment (as defined in the
1940 Act).
    
   
      The following persons are officers and/or directors of the Manager:
Howard Stein, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer; W. Keith
Smith, Vice Chairman of the Board; Christopher M. Condron, President,
Chief Operating Officer and a director; Stephen E. Canter, Vice Chairman,
Chief Investment Officer and a director; Lawrence S. Kash, Vice Chairman-
Distribution and a director; Philip L. Toia, Vice Chairman-Operations and
Administration and a director; William T. Sandalls, Jr., Senior Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer; Elie M. Genadry, Vice President-
Institutional Sales; William F. Glavin, Jr., Vice President-Corporate
Development; Mark N. Jacobs, Vice President, General Counsel and
Secretary; Patrice M. Kozlowski, Vice President-Corporate Communications;
Mary Beth Leibig, Vice President-Human Resources; Jeffrey N. Nachman, Vice
President-Mutual Fund Accounting; Andrew S. Wasser, Vice President-
Information Services; Elvira Oslapas, Assistant Secretary; and Mandell L.
Berman, Frank V. Cahouet, Alvin E. Friedman, Lawrence M. Greene and Julian
M. Smerling, directors.
    
   
      The Manager manages the Fund's portfolio of investments in accordance
with the stated policies of the Fund, subject to the approval of the
Fund's Board.  The Manager is responsible for investment decisions, and
provides the Fund with portfolio managers who are authorized by the Fund's
Board to execute purchases and sales of securities.  The Fund's portfolio
managers are Richard J. Moynihan, Joseph A. Darcy, A. Paul Disdier,
Douglas Gaylor, Karen M. Hand, Stephen C. Kris, Jill C. Shaffro, L.
Lawrence Troutman, Samuel J. Weinstock and Monica S. Wieboldt.  The
Manager also maintains a research department with a professional staff of
portfolio managers and securities analysts who provide research services
for the Fund as well as for other funds advised by the Manager.  All
purchases and sales are reported for the Board members' review at the
meeting subsequent to such transactions.
    
      The Manager maintains office facilities on behalf of the Fund and
furnishes statistical and research data, clerical help, accounting, data
processing, bookkeeping and internal auditing and certain other required
services to the Fund.  The Manager also may make such advertising and
promotional expenditures, using its own resources, as it from time to time
deems appropriate.
   
      All expenses incurred in the operation of the Fund are borne by the
Fund, except to the extent specifically assumed by the Manager.  The
expenses borne by the Fund include: organizational costs, taxes, interest,
interest on securities sold short, brokerage fees and commissions, if any,
fees of Board members who are not officers, directors, employees or
holders of 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the Manager,
Securities and Exchange Commission fees, state Blue Sky qualification
fees, advisory fees, charges of custodians, transfer and dividend
disbursing agents' fees, certain insurance premiums, industry association
fees, outside auditing and legal expenses, costs of maintaining the Fund's
existence, costs of independent pricing services, costs attributable to
investor services (including, without limitation, telephone and personnel
expenses), costs of shareholders' reports and meetings, costs of preparing
and printing prospectuses and statements of additional information for
regulatory purposes and for distribution to existing shareholders, and any
extraordinary expenses.
    
   
      As compensation for the Manager's services, the Fund has agreed to
pay the Manager a monthly management fee at the annual rate of .60 of 1%
of the value of the Fund's average daily net assets.  All fees and
expenses are accrued daily and deducted before the declaration of
dividends to shareholders.  For the fiscal year ended March 31, 1994, no
management fee was paid by the Fund pursuant to undertakings by the
Manager.  For the fiscal years ended March 31, 1995 and 1996, the
management fees payable amounted to $1,608,398 and $1,417,667,
respectively, which amounts were reduced by $1,265,273 and $341,281,
respectively, pursuant to undertakings then in effect, resulting in net
fees paid to the Manager of $343,125 in fiscal 1995 and $1,076,386 in
fiscal 1996.
    
      The Manager has agreed that if in any fiscal year the aggregate
expenses of the Fund, exclusive of taxes, brokerage, interest on
borrowings and (with the prior written consent of the necessary state
securities commissions) extraordinary expenses, but including the
management fee, exceed the expense limitation of any state having
jurisdiction over the Fund, the Fund may deduct from the payment to be
made to the Manager under the Agreement, or the Manager will bear, such
excess expense to the extent required by state law.  Such deduction or
payment, if any, will be estimated daily, and reconciled and effected or
paid, as the case may be, on a monthly basis.

      The aggregate of the fees payable to the Manager is not subject to
reduction as the value of the Fund's net assets increases.

   
                                 PURCHASE OF SHARES
    
   
      The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled "How to Buy
Shares."
    
   
      The Distributor.  The Distributor serves as the Fund's distributor on
a best efforts basis pursuant to an agreement which is renewable annually.
The Distributor also acts as distributor for the other funds in the
Dreyfus Family of Funds and for certain other investment companies.  In
some states, certain financial institutions effecting transactions in Fund
shares may be required to register as dealers pursuant to state law.
    
   
      Service Charges.  There is no sales or service charge by the Fund or
the Distributor, although investment dealers, banks and other institutions
may make reasonable charges to investors for their services.  The services
provided and the applicable fees are established by each dealer or other
institution acting independently of the Fund.  The Fund has been given to
understand that these fees may be charged for customer services including,
but not limited to, same-day investment of client funds; same-day access
to client funds; advice to customers about the status of their accounts,
yield currently being paid or income earned to date; provision of periodic
account statements showing security and money market positions; other
services available from the dealer, bank or other institution; and
assistance with inquiries related to their investment.  Any such fees will
be deducted monthly from the investor's account, which on smaller accounts
could constitute a substantial portion of distributions.  Small, inactive,
long-term accounts involving monthly service charges may not be in the
best interest of investors.  Investors should be aware that they may
purchase shares of the Fund directly from the Fund without imposition of
any maintenance or service charges, other than those already described
herein.
    
   
      Dreyfus TeleTransfer Privilege.  Dreyfus TeleTransfer purchase orders
may be made at any time.  Purchase orders received by 4:00 P.M., New York
time, on any business day that Dreyfus Transfer, Inc., the Fund's transfer
and dividend disbursing agent (the "Transfer Agent") and the New York
Stock Exchange are open for business will be credited to the shareholder's
Fund account on the next bank business day following such purchase order.
Purchase orders made after 4:00 P.M., New York time, on any business day
the Transfer Agent and the New York Stock Exchange are open for business,
or orders made on Saturday, Sunday or any Fund holiday (e.g., when the New
York Stock Exchange is not open for business), will be credited to the
shareholders's Fund account on the second bank business day following such
purchase order.  To qualify to use the Dreyfus TeleTransfer Privilege, the
initial payment for purchase of Fund shares must be drawn on, and
redemption proceeds paid to, the same bank and account as are designated
in the Account Application or Shareholder Services Form on file.  If the
proceeds of a particular redemption are to be wired to an account at any
other bank, the request must be in writing and signature-guaranteed.  See
"Redemption of Shares--Dreyfus TeleTransfer Privilege."
    
      Reopening an Account.  An investor may reopen an account with a
minimum investment of $100 without filing a new Account Application during
the calendar year the account is closed or during the following calendar
year, provided the information on the old Account Application is still
applicable.


                              SHAREHOLDER SERVICES PLAN

      The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled
"Shareholder Services Plan."

      The Fund has adopted a Shareholder Services Plan (the "Plan")
pursuant to which the Fund reimburses Dreyfus Service Corporation for
certain allocated expenses of providing personal services and/or
maintaining shareholder accounts.  The services provided may include
personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such as answering
shareholder inquiries regarding the Fund and providing reports and other
information, and services related to the maintenance of shareholder
accounts.
   
      A quarterly report of the amounts expended under the Plan, and the
purposes for which such expenditures were incurred, must be made to the
Fund's Board for its review.  In addition, the Plan provides that material
amendments of the Plan must be approved by the Board members who are not
"interested persons" (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund and have no
direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the Plan by vote
cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of considering such
amendments.  The Plan is subject to annual approval by such vote of the
Board members cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting
on the Plan.  The Plan is terminable at any time by vote of a majority of
the Board members who are not "interested persons" and have no direct or
indirect financial interest in the operation of the Plan.
    
   
      For the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996, $133,436 was chargeable to
the Fund under the Plan.
    
   
                                REDEMPTION OF SHARES
    
   
      The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled "How to
Redeem Shares."
    
   
      Check Redemption Privilege.  An investor may indicate on the Account
Application, Shareholder Services Form or by later written request that
the Fund provide Redemption Checks ("Checks") drawn on the investor's Fund
account.  Checks will be sent only to the registered owner(s) of the
account and only to the address of record.  The Account Application,
Shareholder Services Form or later written request must be manually signed
by the registered owner(s).  Checks may be made payable to the order of
any person in an amount of $500 or more.  When a Check is presented to the
Transfer Agent for payment, the Transfer Agent, as the investor's agent,
will cause the Fund to redeem a sufficient number of shares in the
investor's account to cover the amount of the Check.  Dividends are earned
until the Check clears.  After clearance, a copy of the Check will be
returned to the investor.  Investors generally will be subject to the same
rules and regulations that apply to checking accounts, although election
of this Privilege creates only a shareholder-transfer agent relationship
with the Transfer Agent.
    
      If the amount of the Check is greater than the value of the shares in
an investor's account, the Check will be returned marked insufficient
funds.  Checks should not be used to close an account.
   
      Wire Redemption Privilege.  By using this Privilege, the investor
authorizes the Transfer Agent to act on wire or telephone redemption
instructions from any person representing himself or herself to be the
investor, and reasonably believed by the Transfer Agent to be genuine.
Ordinarily, the Fund will initiate payment for shares redeemed pursuant to
this Privilege on the next business day after receipt if the Transfer
Agent receives the redemption request in proper form.  Redemption proceeds
($1,000 minimum) will be transferred by Federal Reserve wire only to the
commercial bank account specified by the investor on the Account
Application or Shareholder Services Form, or to a correspondent bank if
the investor's bank is not a member of the Federal Reserve System.  Fees
ordinarily are imposed by such bank and usually are borne by the investor.
Immediate notification by the correspondent bank to the investor's bank is
necessary to avoid a delay in crediting the funds to the investor's bank
account.
    
      Investors with access to telegraphic equipment may wire redemption
requests to the Transfer Agent by employing the following transmittal code
which may be used for domestic or overseas transmissions:

                                                        Transfer Agent's
           Transmittal Code                             Answer Back Sign

               144295                                   144295 TSSG PREP

      Investors who do not have direct access to telegraphic equipment may
have the wire transmitted by contacting a TRT Cables operator at 1-800-
654-7171, toll free.  Investors should advise the operator that the above
transmittal code must be used and should also inform the operator of the
Transfer Agent's answer back sign.

      To change the commercial bank or account designated to receive wire
redemption proceeds, a written request must be sent to the Transfer Agent.
This request must be signed by each shareholder, with each signature
guaranteed as described below under "Share Certificates; Signatures."
   
      Dreyfus TeleTransfer Privilege.  Investors should be aware that if
they have selected the Dreyfus TeleTransfer Privilege, any request for a
wire redemption will be effected as a Dreyfus TeleTransfer transaction
through the Automated Clearing House ("ACH") system unless more prompt
transmittal specifically is requested.  Redemption proceeds will be on
deposit in the investor's account at an ACH member bank ordinarily two
business days after receipt of the redemption request.  See "Purchase of
Shares--Dreyfus TeleTransfer Privilege."
    
      Share Certificates; Signatures.  Any certificates representing Fund
shares to be redeemed must be submitted with the redemption request.
Written redemption requests must be signed by each shareholder, including
each holder of a joint account, and each signature must be guaranteed.
Signatures on endorsed certificates submitted for redemption also must be
guaranteed.  The Transfer Agent has adopted standards and procedures
pursuant to which signature-guarantees in proper form generally will be
accepted from domestic banks, brokers, dealers, credit unions, national
securities exchanges, registered securities associations, clearing
agencies and savings associations, as well as from participants in the New
York Stock Exchange Medallion Program, the Securities Transfer Agents
Medallion Program ("STAMP") and the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program.
Guarantees must be signed by an authorized signatory of the guarantor and
"Signature-Guaranteed" must appear with the signature.  The Transfer Agent
may request additional documentation from corporations, executors,
administrators, trustees or guardians, and may accept other suitable
verification arrangements from foreign investors, such as consular
verification.  For more information with respect to signature-guarantees,
please call one of the telephone numbers listed on the cover.
   
      Redemption Commitment.  The Fund has committed itself to pay in cash
all redemption requests by any shareholder of record, limited in amount
during any 90-day period to the lesser of $250,000 of 1% of the value of
the Fund's net assets at the beginning of such period.  Such commitment is
irrevocable without the prior approval of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  In the case of requests for redemption in excess of such
amount, the Fund's Board reserves the right to make payments in whole or
in part in securities (which may include non-marketable securities) or
other assets in case of an emergency or any time a cash distribution would
impair the liquidity of the Fund to the detriment of the existing
shareholders.  In such event, the securities would be valued in the same
manner as the Fund's portfolio is valued.  If the recipient sold such
securities, brokerage charges would be incurred.
    
      Suspension of Redemptions.  The right of redemption may be suspended
or the date of payment postponed (a) during any period when the New York
Stock Exchange is closed (other than customary weekend and holiday
closings), (b) when trading in the markets the Fund ordinarily utilizes is
restricted, or when an emergency exists as determined by the Securities
and Exchange Commission so that disposal of the Fund's investments or
determination of its net asset value is not reasonably practicable, or (c)
for such other periods as the Securities and Exchange Commission by order
may permit to protect the Fund's shareholders.


                                SHAREHOLDER SERVICES

      The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled
"Shareholder Services."

      Fund Exchanges.  Shares of other funds purchased by exchange will be
purchased on the basis of relative net asset value per share as follows:

      A.   Exchanges for shares of funds that are offered without a sales
           load will be made without a sales load.

      B.   Shares of funds purchased without a sales load may be exchanged
           for shares of other funds sold with a sales load, and the
           applicable sales load will be deducted.

      C.   Shares of funds purchased with a sales load may be exchanged
           without a sales load for shares of other funds sold without a
           sales load.

      D.   Shares of funds purchased with a sales load, shares of funds
           acquired by a previous exchange from shares purchased with a
           sales load and additional shares acquired through reinvestment
           of dividends or distributions of any such funds (collectively
           referred to herein as "Purchased Shares") may be exchanged for
           shares of other funds sold with a sales load (referred to herein
           as "Offered Shares"), provided that, if the sales load
           applicable to the Offered Shares exceeds the maximum sales load
           that could have been imposed in connection with the Purchased
           Shares (at the time the Purchased Shares were acquired), without
           giving effect to any reduced loads, the difference will be
           deducted.

      To accomplish an exchange under item D above, shareholders must
notify the Transfer Agent of their prior ownership of fund shares and
their account number.

      To request an exchange, an investor must give exchange instructions
to the Transfer Agent in writing, or by telephone.  The ability to issue
exchange instructions by telephone is given to all Fund shareholders
automatically, unless the investor checks the applicable "No"  box on the
Account Application, indicating that the investor specifically refuses
this Privilege.  By using this Privilege, the investor authorizes the
Transfer Agent to act on telephonic instructions from any person
representing himself or herself to be the investor, and reasonably
believed by the Transfer Agent to be genuine.  Telephone exchanges may be
subject to limitations as to the amount involved or the number of
telephone exchanges permitted.  Shares issued in certificate form are not
eligible for telephone exchange.

      To establish a personal retirement plan by exchange, shares of the
fund being exchanged must have a value of at least the minimum initial
investment required for the fund into which the exchange is being made.
For Dreyfus-sponsored Keogh Plans, IRAs and IRAs set up under a Simplified
Employee Pension Plan ("SEP-IRAs") with only one participant, the minimum
initial investment is $750.  To exchange shares held in corporate plans,
403(b)(7) Plans and SEP-IRAs with more than one participant, the minimum
initial investment is $100 if the plan has at least $2,500 invested among
the funds in the Dreyfus Family of Funds.  To exchange shares held in
personal retirement plans, the shares exchanged must have a current value
of at least $100.

      Dreyfus Auto-Exchange Privilege.  Dreyfus Auto-Exchange Privilege
permits an investor to purchase, in exchange for shares of the Fund,
shares of another fund in the Dreyfus Family of Funds.  This Privilege is
available only for existing accounts.  Shares will be exchanged on the
basis of relative net asset value as described above under "Fund
Exchanges."  Enrollment in or modification or cancellation of this
Privilege is effective three business days following notification by the
investor.  An investor will be notified if his account falls below the
amount designated to be exchanged under this Privilege.  In this case, an
investor's account will fall to zero unless additional investments are
made in excess of the designated amount prior to the next Auto-Exchange
transaction.  Shares held under IRA and other retirement plans are
eligible for this Privilege.  Exchanges of IRA shares may be made between
IRA accounts and from regular accounts to IRA accounts, but not from IRA
accounts to regular accounts.  With respect to all other retirement
accounts, exchanges may be made only among those accounts.

      Fund Exchanges and the Dreyfus Auto-Exchange Privilege are available
to shareholders resident in any state in which shares of the fund being
acquired may legally be sold.  Shares may be exchanged only between
accounts having identical names and other identifying designations.

      Shareholder Services Forms and prospectuses of the other funds may be
obtained by calling 1-800-645-6561.  The Fund reserves the right to reject
any exchange request in whole or in part.  The Fund Exchanges service or
Dreyfus Auto-Exchange Privilege may be modified or terminated at any time
upon notice to shareholders.
   
      Automatic Withdrawal Plan.  The Automatic Withdrawal Plan permits an
investor with a $5,000 minimum account to request withdrawal of a
specified dollar amount (minimum of $50) on either a monthly or quarterly
basis.  Withdrawal payments are the proceeds from sales of Fund shares,
not the yield on the shares.  If withdrawal payments exceed reinvested
dividends and distributions, the investor's shares will be reduced and
eventually may be depleted.  Automatic Withdrawal may be terminated at any
time by the investor, the Fund or the Transfer Agent.  Shares for which
certificates have been issued may not be redeemed through the Automatic
Withdrawal Plan.
    
      Dreyfus Dividend Sweep .  Dreyfus Dividend Sweep allows investors to
invest automatically their dividends or dividends and capital gain
distributions, if any, from the Fund in shares of another fund in the
Dreyfus Family of Funds of which the investor is a shareholder.  Shares of
other funds purchased pursuant to this privilege will be purchased on the
basis of relative net asset value per share as follows:

      A.   Dividends and distributions paid by a fund may be invested
           without imposition of a sales load in shares of other funds that
           are offered without a sales load.

      B.   Dividends and distributions paid by a fund which does not charge
           a sales load may be invested in shares of other funds sold with
           a sales load, and the applicable sales load will be deducted.

      C.   Dividends and distributions paid by a fund which charges a sales
           load may be invested in shares of other funds sold with a sales
           load (referred to herein as "Offered Shares"), provided that, if
           the sales load applicable to the Offered Shares exceeds the
           maximum sales load charged by the fund from which dividends or
           distributions are being swept, without giving effect to any
           reduced loads, the difference will be deducted.

      D.   Dividends and distributions paid by a fund may be invested in
           shares of other funds that impose a contingent deferred sales
           charge ("CDSC") and the applicable CDSC, if any, will be imposed
           upon redemption of such shares.


                          DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE
   
      The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled "How to Buy
Shares."
    
   
      Valuation of Portfolio Securities.  The Fund's investments are valued
by an independent pricing service (the "Service") approved by the Fund's
Board.  When, in the judgment of the Service, quoted bid prices for
investments are readily available and are representative of the bid side
of the market, these investments are valued at the mean between the quoted
bid prices (as obtained by the Service from dealers in such securities)
and asked prices (as calculated by the Service based upon its evaluation
of the market for such securities).  Other investments (which constitute a
majority of the portfolio securities) are carried at fair value as
determined by the Service, based on methods which include consideration
of:  yields or prices of municipal bonds of comparable quality, coupon,
maturity and type; indications as to values from dealers; and general
market conditions.  The Service may employ electronic data processing
techniques and/or a matrix system to determine valuations.  The Service's
procedures are reviewed by the Fund's officers under the general
supervision of the Fund's Board.  Expenses and fees, including the
management fee (reduced by the expense limitation, if any), are accrued
daily and are taken into account for the purpose of determining the net
asset value of Fund shares.
    
      New York Stock Exchange Closings.  The holidays (as observed) on
which the New York Stock Exchange is closed currently are:  New Year's
Day, Presidents' Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor
Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas.


                               PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

      Portfolio securities ordinarily are purchased from and sold to
parties acting as either principal or agent.  Newly-issued securities
ordinarily are purchased directly from the issuer or from an underwriter;
other purchases and sales usually are placed with those dealers from which
it appears that the best price or execution will be obtained.  Usually no
brokerage commissions, as such, are paid by the Fund for such purchases
and sales, although the price paid usually includes an undisclosed
compensation to the dealer acting as agent.  The prices paid to
underwriters of newly-issued securities usually include a concession paid
by the issuer to the underwriter, and purchases of after-market securities
from dealers ordinarily are executed at a price between the bid and asked
price.  No brokerage commissions have been paid by the Fund to date.

      Transactions are allocated to various dealers by the Fund's portfolio
managers in their best judgment.  The primary consideration is prompt and
effective execution of orders at the most favorable price.  Subject to
that primary consideration, dealers may be selected for research,
statistical or other services to enable the Manager to supplement its own
research and analysis with the views and information of other securities
firms.

      Research services furnished by brokers through which the Fund effects
securities transactions may be used by the Manager in advising other funds
it advises and, conversely, research services furnished to the Manager by
brokers in connection with other funds the Manager advises may be used by
the Manager in advising the Fund.  Although it is not possible to place a
dollar value on these services, it is the opinion of the Manager that the
receipt and study of such services should not reduce the overall expenses
of its research department.


                         DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES

      The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled "Dividends,
Distributions and Taxes."

      The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), provides
that if a shareholder has not held his Fund shares for more than six
months (or such shorter period as the Internal Revenue Service may
prescribe by regulation) and has received an exempt-interest dividend with
respect to such shares, any loss incurred on the sale of such shares shall
be disallowed to the extent of the exempt-interest dividend received.  In
addition, any dividend or distribution paid shortly after an investor's
purchase may have the effect of reducing the net asset value of his shares
below the cost of his investment.  Such a distribution should be a return
on the investment in an economic sense although taxable as stated in
"Dividends, Distributions and Taxes" in the Prospectus.

      If, at the close of each quarter of its taxable year, at least 50% of
the value of the Fund's total assets consists of obligations which, when
held by an individual, the interest therefrom is exempt from California
personal income tax, and if the Fund qualifies as a management company
under the California Revenue and Taxation Code, then the Fund will be
qualified to pay dividends to its shareholders that are exempt from
California personal income tax (but not from California franchise tax).
However, the total amount of California exempt-interest dividends paid by
the Fund to a non-corporate shareholder with respect to any taxable year
cannot exceed such shareholder's pro-rata share of interest received by
the Fund during such year that is exempt from California taxation less any
expenses and expenditures deemed to have been paid from such interest.

      For shareholders subject to the California personal income tax,
exempt-interest dividends derived from California Municipal Obligations
will not be subject to the California personal income tax.  Distributions
from net realized short-term capital gains to California resident
shareholders will be subject to the California personal income tax as
ordinary income.  Distributions from net realized long-term capital gains
may constitute long-term capital gains for individual California resident
shareholders.  Unlike under Federal tax law, the Fund's shareholders will
not be subject to California personal income tax, or receive a credit for
California taxes paid by the Fund on undistributed capital gains.  In
addition, California tax law does not consider any portion of the exempt-
interest dividends paid an item of tax preference for the purposes of
computing the California alternative minimum tax.

      Ordinarily, gains and losses realized from portfolio transactions
will be treated as capital gain or loss.  However, all or a portion of any
gain realized from the sale or other disposition of certain market
discount bonds will be treated as ordinary income under Section 1276 of
the Code.  In addition, all or a portion of the gain realized from
engaging in "conversion transactions" may be treated as ordinary income
under Section 1258 of the Code.  "Conversion transactions" are defined to
include certain forward, futures, option and "straddle" transactions,
transactions marketed or sold to produce capital gains, or transactions
described in Treasury regulations to be issued in the future.

      Under Section 1256 of the Code, gain or loss realized by the Fund
from certain financial futures and options transactions will be treated as
60% long-term capital gain or loss and 40% short-term capital gain or
loss.  Gain or loss will arise upon exercise or lapse of such futures and
options as well as from closing transactions.  In addition, any such
futures or options remaining unexercised at the end of the Fund's taxable
year will be treated as sold for their then fair market value, resulting
in additional gain or loss to the Fund characterized in the manner
described above.

      Offsetting positions held by the Fund involving certain financial
futures contracts or options transactions may be considered, for tax
purposes, to constitute "straddles."  "Straddles" are defined to include
"offsetting positions" in actively traded personal property.  The tax
treatment of "straddles" is governed by Sections 1092 and 1258 of the
Code, which, in certain circumstances, overrides or modifies the
provisions of Section 1256 of the Code. As such, all or a portion of any
short or long-term capital gain from certain "straddle" and/or conversion
transactions may be recharacterized to ordinary income.

      If the Fund were treated as entering into "straddles" by reason of
its engaging in financial futures contracts or options transactions, such
"straddles" would be characterized as "mixed straddles" if the futures or
options comprising a part of such "straddles" were governed by
Section 1256 of the Code.  The Fund may make one or more elections with
respect to "mixed straddles."  If no election is made, to the extent the
straddle rules apply to positions established by the Fund, losses realized
by the Fund will be deferred to the extent of unrealized gain in any
offsetting positions.  Moreover, as a result of the straddle and the
conversion transaction rules, short-term capital loss on straddle
positions may be recharacterized as long-term capital loss, and long-term
capital gain may be recharacterized as short-term capital gain or ordinary
income.

      Investment by the Fund in securities issued at a discount or
providing for deferred interest or for payment of interest in the form of
additional obligations could, under special tax rules, affect the amount,
timing and character of distributions to shareholders.  For example, the
Fund could be required to take into account annually a portion of the
discount (or deemed discount) at which such securities were issued and to
distribute such portion in order to maintain its qualification as a
regulated investment company.  In such case, the Fund may have to dispose
of securities which it might otherwise have continued to hold in order to
generate cash to satisfy these distribution requirements.


                               PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

      The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled
"Performance Information."
   
      For the 30-day period ended March 31, 1996, the Fund's yield was
4.16%.  The Fund's yield reflects the waiver of a portion of the
management fee then in effect, without which the Fund's 30-day yield for
the period ended March 31, 1996 would have been 4.13%.  Current yield is
computed pursuant to a formula which operates as follows:  The amount of
the Fund's expenses accrued for the 30-day period (net of reimbursements)
is subtracted from the amount of the dividends and interest earned
(computed in accordance with regulatory requirements) by the Fund during
the period.  That result is then divided by the product of:  (a) the
average daily number of shares outstanding during the period that were
entitled to receive dividends, and (b) the net asset value per share on
the last day of the period less any undistributed earned income per share
reasonably expected to be declared as a dividend shortly thereafter.  The
quotient is then added to 1, and that sum is raised to the 6th power,
after which 1 is subtracted.  The current yield is then arrived at by
multiplying the result by 2.
    
   
      Based upon a combined 1996 Federal and California income tax rate of
46.24%, the Fund's tax equivalent yield for the 30-day period ended March
31, 1996 was 7.74%.  Absent any expense absorption and/or fee waiver then
in effect, the Fund's 30-day tax equivalent yield would have been 7.68%.
Tax equivalent yield is computed by dividing that portion of the current
yield (calculated as described above) which is tax exempt by 1 minus a
stated tax rate and adding the quotient to that portion, if any, of the
yield of the Fund that is not tax exempt.
    
      The tax equivalent yield quoted above represents the application of
the highest Federal and State of California marginal personal income tax
rates presently in effect.  For Federal personal income tax purposes, a
39.6% tax rate has been used.  For California personal income tax
purposes, an 11% tax rate has been used.  The tax equivalent figure,
however, does not include the potential effect of any local (including,
but not limited to, county, district or city) taxes, including applicable
surcharges.  In addition, there may be pending legislation which could
affect such stated tax rates or yield.  Each investor should consult its
tax adviser, and consider its own factual circumstances and applicable tax
laws, in order to ascertain the relevant tax equivalent yield.
   
      For the one-year period ended March 31, 1996 and for the period April
20, 1992 (commencement of operations) through March 31, 1996, the Fund's
average annual total returns were 6.75%, and 6.92%, respectively.  Absent
any expense absorption and/or fee waiver then in effect, the Fund's total
return would have been lower.  Average annual total return is calculated
by determining the ending redeemable value of an investment purchased with
a hypothetical $1,000 payment made at the beginning of the period
(assuming the reinvestment of dividends and distributions), dividing by
the amount of the initial investment, taking the "n" th root of the
quotient (where "n" is the number of years in the period) and subtracting
1 from the result.
    
   
      For the period April 20, 1992 (commencement of operations) through
March 31, 1996, the Fund's total return was 30.25%.  Absent any expense
absorption and/or fee waiver then in effect, the Fund's return would have
been lower.  Total return is calculated by subtracting the amount of the
Fund's net asset value per share at the beginning of a stated period from
the net asset value per share at the end of the period (after giving
effect to the reinvestment of dividends and distributions during the
periods), and dividing the result by the net asset value per share at the
beginning of the period.
    
      From time to time, the Fund may use hypothetical tax equivalent
yields or charts in its advertising.  These hypothetical yields or charts
will be used for illustrative purposes only and are not indicative of the
Fund's past or future performance.

      From time to time, advertising materials for the Fund may refer to or
discuss then-current or past economic conditions, developments and/or
events, including, for example those relating to actual or proposed tax
legislation, or to statistical or other information concerning trends
relating to investment companies as compiled by industry associations such
as the Investment Company Institute.  From time to time, advertising
materials for the Fund also may refer to or discuss current ratings
provided by Morningstar, Inc., an independent company which provides
general information about investment companies to the public including
ratings based on a one-to-five star rating system.  From time to time,
advertising materials for the Fund also may refer to Morningstar ratings
and related analyses supporting such ratings.

                                     APPENDIX A
   
                    INVESTING IN CALIFORNIA MUNICIPAL OBLIGATIONS
    
      Certain California (the "State") constitutional amendments,
legislative measures, executive orders, civil actions and voter
initiatives, as well as the general financial condition of the State,
could adversely affect the ability of issuers of California Municipal
Obligations to pay interest and principal on such obligations.  The
following information constitutes only a brief summary, does not purport
to be a complete description, and is based on information drawn from
official statements relating to securities offerings of the State of
California and various local agencies, available as of the date of this
Statement of Additional Information.  While the Fund has not independently
verified such information, it has no reason to believe that such
information is not correct in all material respects.

      Recent Developments.  From mid-1990 to late 1993, the State suffered
a recession with the worst economic, fiscal and budget conditions since
the 1930s.  Construction, manufacturing (especially aerospace), exports
and financial services, among others, were all severely affected.  Job
losses have been the worst of any post-war recession.  Unemployment
reached 10.1% in January 1994, but fell sharply to 7.7% in October and
November 1994.  According to the State's Department of Finance, recovery
from the recession in California began in 1994.

      The recession seriously affected State tax revenues, which basically
mirror economic conditions.  It also has caused increased expenditures for
health and welfare programs.  The State also has been facing a structural
imbalance in its budget with the largest programs supported by the General
Fund (K-12 schools and community colleges, health and welfare, and
corrections) growing at rates higher than the growth rates for the
principal revenue sources of the General Fund.  As a result, the State
experienced recurring budget deficits in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
The State Controller reported that expenditures exceeded revenues for four
of the five fiscal years ending with 1991-92.  The State had an operating
surplus of approximately $109 million in 1992-93 and $836 million in 1993-
94.  However, at June 30, 1994, according to the Department of Finance,
the State's Special Fund for Economic Uncertainties ("SFEU") still had a
deficit, on a budget basis, of approximately $1.8 billion.

      The accumulated budget deficits over the past several years, together
with expenditures for school funding which have not been reflected in the
budget, and reduction of available internal borrowable funds, have
combined to significantly deplete the State's cash resources to pay its
ongoing expenses.  In order to meet its cash needs, the State has had to
rely for several years on a series of external borrowings, including
borrowings past the end of a fiscal year.  Such borrowings are expected to
continue in future fiscal years.  To meet its cash flow needs in the 1994-
95 fiscal year the State issued, in July and August 1994, $4.0 billion of
revenue anticipation warrants which mature on April 25, 1996, and $3.0
billion of revenue anticipation notes which matured on June 28, 1995.

      As a result of the deterioration in the State's budget and cash
situation, the rating agencies reduced the State's credit ratings.
Between October 1991 and July 1994, the rating on the State's general
obligation bonds was reduced by S&P from "AAA" to "A," by Moody's from
"Aaa" to "A1" and by Fitch from "AAA" to "A."

      The 1994-95 Fiscal Year Budget (as updated in the January 10, 1995
Governor's Budget) is projected to have $42.4 billion of General Fund
revenues and transfers and $41.7 billion of budgeted expenditures.  In
addition, the 1994-95 Budget Act anticipates deferring retirement of about
$1 billion of the accumulated budget deficit to the 1995-96 fiscal year
when it is intended to be fully retired by June 30, 1996.

      The Governor's Budget for 1995-96 proposed General Fund revenues and
transfers of $42.5 billion and expenditures of $41.7 billion, which would
leave a balance of approximately $92 million in the budget reserve, the
SFEU, at June 30, 1996 after repayment of the accumulated budget deficits.
The Budget proposal is based on a number of assumptions, including receipt
of $830 million from the Federal government to offset costs of
undocumented and refugee immigrants.

      On December 6, 1994, Orange County, California (the "County"),
together with its pooled investment funds (the "Funds") filed for
protection under Chapter 9 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, after reports
that the Funds had suffered significant market losses in their
investments, causing a liquidity crisis for the Funds and the County.
More than 180 other public entities, most of which, but not all, are
located in the County, were also depositors in the County Funds.  As of
mid-January 1995, following a restructuring of most of the County Funds'
assets to increase their liquidity and reduce their exposure to interest
rate increases, the County estimated the County Funds' loss at about $1.69
billion, or about 23% of their initial deposits of approximately $7.5
billion.  Many of the entities which deposited monies in the County Funds,
including the County, are facing cash flow difficulties because of the
bankruptcy filing and may be required to reduce programs or capital
projects.  This also may effect their ability to meet their outstanding
obligations.

      The State has no existing obligation with respect to any outstanding
obligations or securities of the County or any of the other participating
entities.  However, in the event the County is unable to maintain county
administered State programs because of insufficient resources, it may be
necessary for the State to intervene, but the State cannot presently
predict what, if any, action may occur.

      On January 17, 1994, an earthquake of the magnitude of an estimated
6.8 on the Richter Scale struck Los Angeles causing significant damage to
public and private structures and facilities.  Although some individuals
and businesses suffered losses totaling in the billions of dollars, the
overall effect of the earthquake on the regional and State economy is not
expected to be serious.

      State Finances.  State monies are segregated into the General Fund
and approximately 600 Special Funds.  The General Fund consists of the
revenues received into the State Treasury and earnings from State
investments, which are not required by law to be credited to any other
fund.  The General Fund is the principal operating fund for the majority
of governmental activities and is the depository of most major State
revenue sources.

      The SFEU is funded with General Fund revenues and was established to
protect the State from unforeseen reduced levels of revenues and/or
unanticipated expenditure increases.  Amounts in the SFEU may be
transferred by the Controller as necessary to meet cash needs of the
General Fund.  The Controller is required to return monies so transferred
without payment of interest as soon as there are sufficient monies in the
General Fund.  For budgeting and accounting purposes, any appropriation
made from the SFEU is deemed an appropriation from the General Fund.  For
year-end reporting purposes, the Controller is required to add the balance
in the SFEU to the balance in the General Fund so as to show the total
monies then available for General Fund purposes.

      Inter-fund borrowing has been used for many years to meet temporary
imbalances of receipts and disbursements in the General Fund.  As of June
30, 1994, the General Fund had outstanding loans in the aggregate
principal amount of $43 million to the General Fund from the SFEU and
outstanding loans in the aggregate principal amount of $5.2 billion, which
consisted of $4.0 billion of internal loans to the General Fund from the
SFEU and other Special Funds and $1.2 billion of external loans
represented by the 1994 revenue anticipation warrants.

      Articles XIIIA and XIIIB to the State Constitution and Other Revenue
Law Changes.  Prior to 1977, revenues of the State government experienced
significant growth primarily as a result of inflation and continuous
expansion of the tax base of the State.  In 1978, State voters approved an
amendment to the State Constitution known as Proposition 13, which added
Article XIIIA to the State Constitution, reducing ad valorem local
property taxes by more than 50%.  In addition, Article XIIIA provides that
additional taxes may be levied by cities, counties and special districts
only upon approval of not less than a two-thirds vote of the "qualified
electors" of such district, and requires not less than a two-thirds vote
of each of the two houses of the State Legislature to enact any changes in
State taxes for the purpose of increasing revenues, whether by increased
rate or changes in methods of computation.

      Primarily as a result of the reductions in local property tax
revenues received by local governments following the passage of
Proposition 13, the Legislature undertook to provide assistance to such
governments by substantially increasing expenditures from the General Fund
for that purpose beginning in the 1978-79 fiscal year.  In recent years,
in addition to such increased expenditures, the indexing of personal
income tax rates (to adjust such rates for the effects of inflation), the
elimination of certain inheritance and gift taxes and the increase of
exemption levels for certain other such taxes had a moderating impact on
the growth in State revenues.  In addition, the State has increased
expenditures by providing a variety of tax credits, including renters' and
senior citizens' credits and energy credits.

      The State is subject to an annual "appropriations limit" imposed by
Article XIIIB of the State Constitution adopted in 1979.  Article XIIIB
prohibits the State from spending "appropriations subject to limitation"
in excess of the appropriations limit imposed.  "Appropriations subject to
limitations" are authorizations to spend "proceeds of taxes," which
consist of tax revenues, and certain other funds, including proceeds from
regulatory licenses, user charges or other fees to the extent that such
proceeds exceed "the cost reasonably borne by such entity in providing the
regulation, product or service."  One of the exclusions from these
limitations is "debt service" (defined as "appropriations required to pay
the cost of interest and redemption charges, including the funding of any
reserve or sinking fund required in connection therewith, on indebtedness
existing or legally authorized as of January 1, 1979 or on bonded
indebtedness thereafter approved" by the voters).  In addition,
appropriations required to comply with mandates of courts or the Federal
government and, pursuant to Proposition 111 enacted in June 1990,
appropriations for qualified capital outlay projects and appropriations of
revenues derived from any increase in gasoline taxes and motor vehicle
weight fees above January 1, 1990 levels are not included as
appropriations subject to limitation.  In addition, a number of recent
initiatives were structured or proposed to create new tax revenues
dedicated to certain specific uses, with such new taxes expressly exempted
from the Article XIIIB limits (e.g., increased cigarette and tobacco taxes
enacted by Proposition 99 in 1988).  The appropriations limit also may be
exceeded in cases of emergency.  However, unless the emergency arises from
civil disturbance or natural disaster declared by the Governor, and the
appropriations are approved by two-thirds of the Legislature, the
appropriations limit for the next three years must be reduced by the
amount of the excess.

      The State's appropriations limit in each year is based on the limit
for the prior year, adjusted annually for changes in California per capita
personal income and changes in population, and adjusted, when applicable,
for any transfer of financial responsibility of providing services to or
from another unit of government.  The measurement of change in population
is a blended average of statewide overall population growth, and change in
attendance at local school and community college ("K-14") districts.  As
amended by Proposition 111, the appropriations limit is tested over
consecutive two-year periods.  Any excess of the aggregate "proceeds of
taxes" received over such two-year periods above the combined
appropriations limits for those two years is divided equally between
transfers to
K-14 districts and refunds to taxpayers.

      As originally enacted in 1979, the State's appropriations limit was
based on its 1978-79 fiscal year authorizations to expend proceeds of
taxes and was adjusted annually to reflect changes in cost of living and
population (using different definitions, which were modified by
Proposition 111).  Commencing with the 1991-92 fiscal year, the State's
appropriations limit is adjusted annually based on the actual 1986-87
limit, and as if Proposition 111 had been in effect.  The State
Legislature has enacted legislation to implement Article XIIIB which
defines certain terms used in Article XIIIB and sets forth the methods for
determining the State's appropriations limit.  Government Code Section
7912 requires an estimate of the State's appropriations limit to be
included in the Governor's Budget, and thereafter to be subject to the
budget process and established in the Budget Act.

      For the 1990-91 fiscal year, the State appropriations limit was $32.7
billion, and appropriations subject to limitation were $7.51 billion under
the limit.  The limit for the 1991-92 fiscal year was $34.2 billion, and
appropriations subject to limitations were $3.8 billion under the limit.
The limit for the 1992-93 fiscal year was $35.01 billion, and the
appropriations subject to limitation were $7.53 billion under the limit.
The limit for the 1993-94 fiscal year was $36.06 billion, and the
appropriations subject to limitation were $6.55 billion under the limit.
The estimated limit for the 1994-95 fiscal year is $37.55 billion, and the
appropriations subject to limitations are estimated to be $6.05 billion
under the limit.

      In November 1988, State voters approved Proposition 98, which changed
State funding of public education below the university level and the
operation of the State's appropriations limit, primarily by guaranteeing
K-14 schools a minimum share of General Fund revenues.  Under Proposition
98 (as modified by Proposition 111, which was enacted in June 1990), K-14
schools are guaranteed the greater of (a) 40.3% of General Fund revenues
("Test 1"), (b) the amount appropriated to K-14 schools in the prior year,
adjusted for changes in the cost of living (measured as in Article XIIIB
by reference to California per capita personal income) and enrollment
("Test 2"), or (c) a third test, which would replace the second test in
any year when the percentage growth in per capita General Fund revenues
from the prior year plus .5% is less than the percentage growth in
California per capita personal income ("Test 3").  Under "Test 3," schools
would receive the amount appropriated in the prior year adjusted for
changes in enrollment and per capita General Fund revenues, plus an
additional small adjustment factor.  If "Test 3" is used in any year, the
difference between "Test 3" and "Test 2" would become a "credit" to
schools which would be the basis of payments in future years when per
capita General Fund revenue growth exceeds per capita personal income
growth.

      Proposition 98 permits the Legislature by two-thirds vote of both
houses, with the Governor's concurrence, to suspend the K-14 schools'
minimum funding formula for a one-year period.  In the fall of 1989, the
Legislature and the Governor utilized this provision to avoid having 40.3%
of revenues generated by a special supplemental sales tax enacted for
earthquake relief go to K-14 schools.  Proposition 98 also contains
provisions transferring certain State tax revenues in excess of the
Article XIIIB limit to K-14 schools.

      The 1991-92 Budget Act, applying "Test 2" of Proposition 98,
appropriated approximately $18.5 billion for K-14 schools pursuant to
Proposition 98.  During the course of the fiscal year, revenues proved to
be substantially below expectations.  By the time the Governor's Budget
was introduced in January 1992, it became clear that per capita growth in
General Fund revenues for 1991-92 would be far smaller than the growth in
California per capita personal income and the Governor's Budget therefore
reflected a reduction in Proposition 98 funding in 1991-92 by applying
"Test 3" rather than "Test 2."

      In response to the changing revenue situation and to fully fund the
Proposition 98 guarantee in both the 1991-92 and 1992-93 fiscal years
without exceeding it, the Legislature enacted several bills as part of the
1992-93 budget package which responded to the fiscal crisis in education
funding.  Fiscal year 1991-92 Proposition 98 appropriations for K-14
schools were reduced by $1.083 billion.  In order to not adversely impact
cash received by school districts, however, a short-term loan was
appropriated from the non-Proposition 98 State General Fund.  The
Legislature then appropriated $16.6 billion to K-14 schools for 1992-93
(the minimum guaranteed by Proposition 98), but designated $1.083 billion
of this amount to "repay" the prior year loan, thereby reducing cash
outlays in 1992-93 by that amount.  In addition to reducing the 1991-92
fiscal year appropriations for K-14 schools by $1.083 billion and
converting the amount to a loan (the "inter-year adjustment"), Chapter
703, Statutes of 1992 also made an adjustment to "Test 1," based on the
additional $1.2 billion of local property taxes that were shifted to
schools and community colleges.  The "Test 1" percentage changed from 40%
to 37%.  Additionally, Chapter 703 contained a provision that if an
appellate court should determine that the "Test 1" recalculation or the
inter-year adjustment is unconstitutional, unenforceable or invalid,
Proposition 98 would be suspended for the 1992-93 fiscal year, with the
result that K-14 schools would receive the amount intended by the 1992-93
Budget Act compromise.

      The State Controller stated in October 1992 that, because of a
drafting error in Chapter 703, he could not implement the $1.083 billion
reduction of the 1991-92 school funding appropriation, which was part of
the inter-year adjustment.  The Legislature untimely enacted corrective
legislation as part of the 1993-94 Budget package to implement the $1.083
billion inter-year adjustment as originally intended.

      In the 1992-93 Budget Act, a new loan of $732 million was made to K-
12 schools in order to maintain per-average daily attendance ("ADA")
funding at the same level as 1991-92, at $4,187.  An additional loan of
$241 million was made to community college districts.  These loans are to
be repaid from future Proposition 98 entitlements.  (The teachers'
organization lawsuit discussed above also seeks to declare invalid the
provision making the $732 million a loan "repayable" from future years'
Proposition 98 funds.  Including both State and local funds, and adjusting
for the loans and repayments, on a cash basis, total Proposition 98 K-12
funding in 1992-93 increased to $21.5 billion, 2.4% more than the amount
in 1992-93 ($21.0 billion).

      Based on revised State tax revenues and estimated decreased reported
pupil enrollment, the 1993-94 Budget Act projected that the 1992-93
Proposition 98 Budget Act appropriations of $16.6 billion exceeded a
revised minimum guarantee by $313 million.  As a result, the 1993-94
Budget Act reverted $25 million in 1992-93 appropriations to the General
Fund.  Limiting the reversion to this amount ensures that per ADA funding
for general purposes will remain at the prior year level of $4,217 per
pupil.  The 1993-94 Governor's Budget subsequently proposed deficiency
funding of $121 million for school apportionments and special education,
increasing funding per pupil in 1992-93 to $4,244.  The 1993-94 Budget Act
also designated $98 million in 1992-93 appropriations toward satisfying
prior years' guarantee levels, an obligation that resulted primarily from
updating State tax revenues for 1991-92, and designates $190 million as a
loan repayable from 1993-94 funding.

      The 1993-94 Budget Act projected the Proposition 98 minimum funding
level at $13.5 billion based on the "Test 3" calculation where the
guarantee is determined by the change in per capita growth in General Fund
revenues, which are projected to decrease on a year-over-year basis.  This
amount also takes into account increased property taxes transferred to
school districts from other local governments.

      Legislation accompanying the 1993-94 Budget Act (Chapter 66/93)
provided a new loan of $609 million to K-12 schools in order to maintain
per ADA funding at $4,217 and a loan of $178 million to community
colleges.  These loans have been combined with the K-14 1992-93 loans into
one loan totalling $1.760 billion.  Repayment of this loan would be from
future years' Proposition 98 entitlements, and would be conditioned on
maintaining current funding levels per pupil for K-12 schools.  Chapter 66
also reduced the "Test 1" percentage to 35% to reflect the property tax
shift among local government agencies.

      The 1994-95 Budget Act appropriated $14.4 billion of Proposition 98
funds for K14 schools based on Test 2.  This exceeded the minimum
Proposition 98 guarantee by $8 million to maintain K-12 funding per pupil
at $4,217.  Based upon updated State revenues, growth rates and inflation
factors, the 1994-95 Budget Act appropriated an additional $286 million
within Proposition 98 for the 1993-94 fiscal year, to reflect a need in
appropriations for school districts and county offices of education, as
well as an anticipated deficiency in special education fundings.  These
and other minor appropriation adjustments increase the 1993-94 Proposition
98 guarantee to $13.8 billion, which exceeds the minimum guarantee in that
year by $272 million and provides per pupil funding of $4,225.

      The 1995-96 Governor's Budget adjusts the 1993-94 minimum guarantee
to reflect changes in enrollment and inflation, and 1993-94 Proposition 98
appropriations were increased to $14.1 billion, primarily to reflect
changes in the statutory continuous appropriation for apportionments.  The
revised appropriations now exceed the minimum guarantee by $32 million.
This appropriation level still provides per-pupil funding of $4,225.

      The 1994-95 Proposition 98 minimum guarantee also has been adjusted
for changes in factors described above, and is now calculated to be $14.9
billion.  Within the minimum guarantee, the dollars per pupil have been
maintained at the prior year's level; consequently, the 1994-95 minimum
guarantee now includes a loan repayment of $135 million, and the per-pupil
funding increases to $4,231.

      The 1995-96 Governor's Budget proposes to appropriate $15.9 billion
of Proposition 98 funds to K-14 to meet the guarantee level.  Included
within the guarantee is a loan repayment of $379 million for the combined
outstanding loans of $1.76 billion.  Funding per pupil is estimated to
increase by $61 over 1994-95 to $4,292.

      Sources of Tax Revenue.  The California personal income tax, which in
1992-93 contributed about 44% of General Fund revenues, is closely modeled
after the Federal income tax law.  It is imposed on net taxable income
(gross income less exclusions and deductions).  The tax is progressive
with rates ranging from 1% to 11%.  Personal, dependent, and other credits
are allowed against the gross tax liability.  In addition, taxpayers may
be subject to an alternative minimum tax ("AMT") which is much like the
Federal AMT.  This is designed to ensure that excessive use of tax
preferences does not reduce taxpayers' liabilities below some minimum
level.  Legislation enacted in July 1991 added two new marginal tax rates,
at 10% and 11%, effective for tax years 1991 through 1995.  After 1995,
the maximum personal income tax rate is scheduled to return to 9.3%, and
the AMT rate is scheduled to drop from 8.5% to 7%.

      The personal income tax is adjusted annually by the change in the
consumer price index to prevent taxpayers from being pushed into higher
tax brackets without a real increase in income.

      The sales tax is imposed upon retailers for the privilege of selling
tangible personal property in California.  Most retail sales and leases
are subject to the tax.  However, exemptions have been provided for
certain essentials such as food for home consumption, prescription drugs,
gas, electricity and water.  Sales tax accounted for about 38% of General
Fund revenue in 1992-93.  Bank and corporation tax revenues comprised
about 11% of General Fund revenue in 1992-93.  In 1989, Proposition 99
added a 25 cents per pack excise tax on cigarettes, and a new equivalent
excise tax on other tobacco products.  Legislation enacted in 1993 added
an additional 2 cents per pack for the purpose of funding breast cancer
research.

      General Financial Condition of the State.  In the years following
enactment of the Federal Tax Reform Act of 1986, and conforming changes to
the State's tax laws, taxpayer behavior became more difficult to predict,
and the State experienced a series of fiscal years in which revenue came
in significantly higher or lower than original estimates.  The 1989-90
fiscal year ended with revenues below estimates and the SFEU was fully
depleted by June 30, 1990.  This date essentially coincided with the date
of the most recent recession, and the State subsequently accumulated a
budget deficit in the SFEU approaching $2.8 billion at its peak.  The
State's budget problems in recent years also have been caused by a
structural imbalance which has been identified by the current and previous
Administrations.  The largest General Fund programs -- K-14 education,
health, welfare and corrections -- were increasing faster than the revenue
base, driven by the State's rapid population increases.

      Starting in the 1990-91 fiscal year, each budget required
multibillion dollar actions to bring projected revenues and expenditures
into balance and to close large "budget gaps" which were identified.  The
Legislature and Governor eventually agreed on significant cuts in program
expenditures, some transfers of program responsibilities and funding from
the State to local governments, revenue increases (particularly in the
1991-92 fiscal year budget), and various one-time adjustments and
accounting changes.  However, as the recession took hold and deepened
after the summer of 1990, revenues dropped sharply and expenditures for
health and welfare programs increased as job losses mounted, so that the
State ended each of the 1990-91 and 1991-92 fiscal years with an
unanticipated deficit in the budget reserve, the SFEU, as compared to
projected positive balances.

      As a result of the revenue shortfalls accumulating for the previous
two fiscal years, the Controller in April 1992 indicated that cash
resources (including borrowing from Special Funds) would not be sufficient
to meet all General Fund obligations due on June 30 and July 1, 1992.  On
June 25, 1992, the Controller issued $475 million of 1992 Revenue
Anticipation Warrants (the "1992 Warrants") in order to provide funds to
cover all necessary payments from the General Fund at the end of the 1991-
92 fiscal year and on July 1, 1992. The 1992 Warrants were paid on July
24, 1992.  In addition to the 1992 Warrants, the Controller reported that
as of June 30, 1992, the General Fund had borrowed $1.336 billion from the
SFEU and $4.699 billion from other Special Funds, using all but about $183
million of borrowable cash resources.

      To balance the 1992-93 Governor's Budget, program reductions
totalling $4.365 billion and a revenue and transfer increase of $872
million were proposed for the 1991-92 and 1992-93 fiscal years.  Economic
performance in the State continued to be sluggish after the 1992-93
Governor's Budget was prepared.  By the time of the "May Revision," issued
on May 20, 1992, the Administration estimated that the 1992-93 Budget
needed to address a gap of about $7.9 billion, much of which was needed to
repay the accumulated budget deficits of the previous two years.

      The severity of the budget actions needed led to a long delay in
adopting the budget.  With the failure to enact a budget by July 1, 1992,
the State had no legal authority to pay many of its vendors until the
budget was passed.  Starting on July 1, 1992, the Controller was required
to issue "registered warrants" in lieu of normal warrants backed by cash
to pay many State obligations.  Available cash was used to pay
constitutionally mandated and priority obligations, such as debt service
on bonds and revenue anticipation warrants.  Between July 1 and September
4, 1992, the Controller issued an aggregate of approximately $3.8 billion
of registered warrants payable from the General Fund, all of which were
called for redemption by September 4, 1992 following enactment of the
1992-93 Budget Act and issuance by the State of $3.3 billion of interim
notes.

      The Legislature enacted the 1992-93 Budget Bill on August 29, 1992,
and it was signed by the Governor on September 2, 1992.  The 1992-93
Budget Act provided for expenditures of $57.4 billion and consisted of
General Fund expenditures of $40.8 billion and Special Fund and Bond Fund
expenditures of $16.6 billion.  The Department of Finance estimated a
balance in the SFEU of $28 million on June 30, 1993.

      The $7.9 billion budget gap was closed primarily through cuts in the
program expenditures (principally for health and welfare programs, aid to
schools and support for higher education), together with some increases in
revenues from accelerated collections and changes in tax laws to confirm
to Federal law changes, and a variety of on-time inter-fund transfers and
deferrals.  The other major component of the budget compromise was a law
requiring local governments to transfer a total of $1.3 billion to K-12
school and community college districts, thereby reducing by that amount
General Fund support for those districts under Proposition 98.

      In May 1993, the Department of Finance projected that the General
Fund would end the fiscal year on June 30, 1993 with an accumulated budget
deficit of about $2.8 billion, and a negative fund balance of about $2.2
billion (the difference being certain reserves for encumbrances and school
funding costs).  As a result, the State issued $5 billion of revenue
anticipation notes and warrants.

      The Governor's 1993-94 Budget, introduced on January 8, 1993,
proposed General Fund expenditures of $37.3 billion, with projected
revenues of $39.9 billion.  It also proposed Special Fund expenditures of
$12.4 billion and Special Fund revenues of $12.1 billion.  The 1993-94
fiscal year represented the third consecutive year the Governor and the
Legislature were faced with a very difficult budget environment, requiring
revenue actions and expenditure cuts totaling billions of dollars to
produce a balanced budget.  To balance the budget in the face of declining
revenues, the Governor proposed a series of revenue shifts from local
government, reliance on increased Federal aid and reductions in state
spending.

      The "May Revision" of the Governor's Budget, released on May 20,
1993, indicated that the revenue projections of the January Budget
Proposal were tracking well, with the full year 1992-93 about $80 million
higher than the January projection.  Personal income tax revenue was
higher than projected, sales tax was close to target, and bank and
corporation taxes were lagging behind projections.  The May Revision
projected the State would have an accumulated deficit of about $2.75
billion by June 30, 1993.  The Governor proposed to eliminate this deficit
over an 18-month period.  He also agreed to retain the 0.5% sales tax
scheduled to expire June 30 for a six-month period, dedicated to local
public safety purposes, with a November election to determine a permanent
extension.  Unlike previous years, the Governor's Budget and May Revision
did not calculate a "gap" to be closed, but rather set forth revenue and
expenditure forecasts and proposals designed to produce a balanced budget.

      The 1993-94 Budget Act was signed by the Governor on June 30, 1993,
along with implementing legislation.  The Governor vetoed about $71
million in spending.  With enactment of the Budget Act, the State carried
out its regular cash flow borrowing program for the fiscal year, which
included the issuance of approximately $2 billion of revenue anticipation
notes that matured on June 28, 1994.

      The 1993-94 Budget Act was predicated on General Fund revenues and
transfers estimated at $40.6 billion, about $700 million higher than the
January Governor's Budget, but still about $400 million below 1992-93 (and
the second consecutive year of actual decline).  The principal reasons for
declining revenues were the continued weak economy and the expiration (or
repeal) of three fiscal steps taken in 1991--a half cent temporary sales
tax, a deferral of operating loss carry forwards, and repeal by initiative
of a sales tax on candy and snack foods.

      The 1993-94 Budget Act also assumed Special Fund revenues of $11.9
billion, an increase of 2.9% over 1992-93.

      The 1993-94 Budget Act included General Fund expenditures of $38.5
billion (a 6.3% reduction from projected 1992-93 expenditures of $41.1
billion), in order to keep a balanced budget within the available
revenues.  The Budget also included Special Fund expenditures of $12.1
billion, a 4.2% increase.

      The 1993-94 Budget Act contained no General Fund tax/revenue
increases other than a two year suspension of the renters' tax credit.

      Administration reports during the course of the 1993-94 fiscal year
indicated that while economic recovery appeared to have started in the
second half of the fiscal year, recessionary conditions continued longer
than had been anticipated when the 1993-94 Budget Act was adopted.
Overall, revenues for the 1993-94 fiscal year were about $800 million
lower than original projections, and expenditures were about $780 million
higher, primarily because of higher health and welfare caseloads, lower
property taxes which require greater State support for K-14 education to
make up to shortfall, and lower than anticipated Federal government
payments for immigration-related costs. The reports in May and June 1994,
indicated that revenues in the second half of the 1993-94 fiscal year were
very close to the projections made in the Governor's Budget of January 10,
1994, which was consistent with a slow turn around in the economy.

      The Department of Finance's July 1994 Bulletin, which included final
June receipts, reported that June revenues were $114 million (2.5%) above
projection, with final end-of-year results at $377 million (about 1%)
above the May Revision projections.  Part of this result was due to the
end-of-year adjustments and reconciliations.  Personal income tax and
sales tax continued to track projections.  The largest factor in the
higher than anticipated revenues was from bank and corporation taxes,
which were $140 million (18.4%) above projection in June.

      During the 1993-94 fiscal year, the State implemented the Deficit
Retirement Plan, which was part of the 1993-94 Budget Act, by issuing $1.2
billion of revenue anticipation warrants in February 1994 that matured
December 21, 1994. This borrowing reduced the cash deficit at the end of
the 1993-94 fiscal year.  Nevertheless, because of the $1.5 billion
variance from the original 1993-94 Budget Act assumptions, the General
Fund ended the fiscal year at June 30, 1994 carrying forward an
accumulated deficit of approximately $1.8 billion.

      Because of the revenue shortfall and the State's reduced internal
borrowable cash resources, in addition to the $1.2 billion of revenue
anticipation warrants issued as part of the Deficit Retirement Plan, the
State issued an additional $2.0 billion of revenue anticipation warrants
that matured July 26, 1994, which were needed to fund the State's
obligations and expenses through the end of the 1993-94 fiscal year.

      The 1994-95 fiscal year represented the fourth consecutive year the
Governor and Legislature were faced with a very difficult budget
environment to produce a balanced budget.  Many program cost and budgetary
adjustments had already been made in the last three years.  The Governor's
Budget Proposal, as updated in May and June 1994, recognized that the
accumulated deficit could not be repaid in one year, and proposed a two-
year solution.  The budget proposal set forth revenue and expenditure
forecasts and revenue and expenditure proposals which estimated operating
surpluses for the budget for both 1994-95 and 1995-96, and lead to the
elimination of the accumulated budget deficit, estimated at about $1.8
billion at June 30, 1994, by June 30, 1996.

      The 1994-95 Budget Act, signed by the Governor on July 8, 1994,
projected revenues and transfers of $41.9 billion, $2.1 billion higher
than revenues in 1993-94.  This reflected the Administration's forecast of
an improving economy.  Also included in this figure was the projected
receipt of about $360 million from the Federal government to reimburse the
State's cost of incarcerating undocumented immigrants, most of which
eventually was not received.

      The 1994-95 Budget Act projected Special Fund revenues of $12.1
billion, a decrease of 2.4% from 1993-94 estimated revenues.

      The 1994-95 Budget Act projected General Fund expenditures of $40.9
billion, an increase of $1.6 billion over the 1993-94 fiscal year.  The
1994-95 Budget Act also projected Special Fund expenditures of $13.7
billion, a 5.4% increase over 1993-94 fiscal year estimated expenditures.

      The 1994-95 Budget Act contained no tax increases.  Under legislation
enacted for the 1993-94 Budget Act, the renters' tax credit was suspended
for two years (1993 and 1994).  A ballot proposition to permanently
restore the renters' tax credit after 1995 failed at the June 1994
election.  The Legislature enacted a further one-year suspension of the
renters' tax credit, for 1995, saving about $390 million in the 1995-96
fiscal year.

      The 1994-95 Budget Act assumed that the State would use a cash flow
borrowing program in 1994-95 which combines one-year notes and two-year
warrants, which were issued.  Issuance of the warrants allows the State to
defer repayment of approximately $1.0 billion of its accumulated budget
deficit into the 1995-96 fiscal year.  The Budget Adjustment Law enacted
along with the 1994-95 Budget Act is designed to ensure that the warrants
will be repaid in the 1995-96 fiscal year.

      The Department of Finance Bulletin for April 1995 reported that
General Fund revenues for March 1995 were $28 million, or 1.1%, below
forecast, and that year-to-date General Fund revenues were $110 million,
or 0.4%, below forecast.

      Initial analysis of the Federal fiscal year 1995 budget by the
Department of Finance indicates that about $98 million was appropriated
for California to offset costs of incarceration of undocumented and
refugee immigrants, less than the $356 million which was assumed in the
State's 1994-95 Budget Act.

      For the first time in four years, the State enters the upcoming 1995-
96 fiscal year with strengthening revenues based on an improving economy.
On January 10, 1995, the Governor presented his 1995-96 Fiscal Year Budget
Proposal (the "Proposed Budget").  The Proposed Budget estimates General
Fund revenues and transfers of $42.5 billion (an increase of 0.2% over
1994-95).  This nominal increase from 1994-95 fiscal year reflects the
Governor's realignment proposal and the first year of his tax cut
proposal.  Without these two proposals, General Fund revenues would be
projected at approximately $43.8 billion, or an increase of 3.3% over
1994-95.  Expenditures are estimated at $41.7 billion (essentially
unchanged from 1994-95).  Special Fund revenues are estimated at $13.5
billion (10.7% higher than 1994-95) and Special Fund expenditures are
estimated at $13.8 billion (12.2% higher than 1994-95).  The Proposed
Budget projects that the General Fund will end the fiscal year at June 30,
1996 with a budget surplus in SFEU of about $92 million, or less than 1%
of General Fund expenditures, and will have repaid all of the accumulated
budget deficits.

      Recent Economic Trends.  Revised employment data indicate that
California's recession ended in 1993, and following a period of stability,
a solid recovery is now underway.  The State's unemployment rate fell
sharply last year, from 10.1% in January to 7.7% in October and November
1994.  The gap between the national and California jobless rates narrowed
from 3.4 percentage points at the beginning of 1994 to an average of 2
percentage points in October and November.  The number of unemployed
Californians fell by nearly 400,000 during the year, while civilian
employment increased more than 300,000 in 1994.

      Other indicators, including retail sales, homebuilding activity,
existing home sales and bank lending volume all confirm the State's
recovery.

      Personal income was severely affected by the Northridge Earthquake,
which reduced the first quarter 1994 figure by $22 billion at an annual
rate, reflecting the uninsured damage to residences and unincorporated
businesses.  As a result, personal income growth for all of 1994 was about
4.2%.  However, excluding the Northridge effects, growth would have been
in excess of 5%.  Personal income is expected to grow 6.6% for 1995.



                                     APPENDIX B


      Description of S&P, Moody's and Fitch ratings:

S&P

Municipal Bond Ratings

      An S&P municipal bond rating is a current assessment of the
creditworthiness of an obligor with respect to a specific obligation.

      The ratings are based on current information furnished by the issuer
or obtained by S&P from other sources it considers reliable, and will
include:  (1) likelihood of default-capacity and willingness of the
obligor as to the timely payment of interest and repayment of principal in
accordance with the terms of the obligation; (2) nature and provisions of
the obligation; and (3) protection afforded by, and relative position of,
the obligation in the event of bankruptcy, reorganization or other
arrangement under the laws of bankruptcy and other laws affecting
creditors' rights.

                                         AAA

      Debt rated AAA has the highest rating assigned by S&P.  Capacity to
pay interest and repay principal is extremely strong.

                                         AA

      Debt rated AA has a very strong capacity to pay interest and repay
principal and differs from the highest rated issues only in a small
degree.

                                          A

      Principal and interest payments on bonds in this category are
regarded as safe.  This rating describes the third strongest capacity for
payment of debt service.  It differs from the two higher ratings because:

      General Obligation Bonds -- There is some weakness in the local
economic base, in debt burden, in the balance between revenues and
expenditures, or in quality of management.  Under certain adverse
circumstances, any one such weakness might impair the ability of the
issuer to meet debt obligations at some future date.

      Revenue Bonds -- Debt service coverage is good, but not exceptional.
Stability of the pledged revenues could show some variations because of
increased competition or economic influences on revenues.  Basic security
provisions, while satisfactory, are less stringent.  Management
performance appears adequate.

                                         BBB

      Of the investment grade, this is the lowest.

      General Obligation Bonds -- Under certain adverse conditions, several
of the above factors could contribute to a lesser capacity for payment of
debt service.  The difference between "A" and "BBB" rating is that the
latter shows more than one fundamental weakness, or one very substantial
fundamental weakness, whereas the former shows only one deficiency among
the factors considered.

      Revenue Bonds --  Debt coverage is only fair.  Stability of the
pledged revenues could show substantial variations, with the revenue flow
possibly being subject to erosion over time.  Basic security provisions
are no more than adequate.  Management performance could be stronger.

                                  BB, B, CCC, CC, C

      Debt rated BB, B, CCC, CC and C is regarded as having predominantly
speculative characteristics with respect to capacity to pay interest and
repay principal.  BB indicates the least degree of speculation and C the
highest degree of speculation.  While such debt will likely have some
quality and protective characteristics, these are outweighed by large
uncertainties or major risk exposures to adverse conditions.

                                         BB

      Debt rated BB has less near-term vulnerability to default than other
speculative grade debt.  However, it faces major ongoing uncertainties or
exposure to adverse business, financial or economic conditions which could
lead to inadequate capacity to meet timely interest and principal payment.

                                          B

      Debt rated B has a greater vulnerability to default but presently has
the capacity to meet interest payments and principal repayments.  Adverse
business, financial or economic conditions would likely impair capacity or
willingness to pay interest and repay principal.

                                         CCC

      Debt rated CCC has a current identifiable vulnerability to default,
and is dependent upon favorable business, financial and economic
conditions to meet timely payments of principal.  In the event of adverse
business, financial or economic conditions, it is not likely to have the
capacity to pay interest and repay principal.

                                         CC

      The rating CC is typically applied to debt subordinated to senior
debt which is assigned an actual or implied CCC rating.

                                          C

      The rating C is typically applied to debt subordinated to senior debt
which is assigned an actual or implied CCC- debt rating.

                                          D

      Bonds rated D are in default, and payment of interest and/or
repayment of principal is in arrears.

      Plus (+) or minus (-):  The ratings from AA to CCC may be modified by
the addition of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the
major ratings categories.


Municipal Note Ratings

                                        SP-1

      The issuers of these municipal notes exhibit very strong or strong
capacity to pay principal and interest.  Those issues determined to
possess overwhelming safety characteristics are given a plus sign (+)
designation.

                                        SP-2

      The issuers of these municipal notes exhibit satisfactory capacity to
pay principal and interest.

Commercial Paper Ratings

      An S&P commercial paper rating is a current assessment of the
likelihood of timely payment of debt having an original maturity of no
more than 365 days.

                                          A

      Issues assigned this rating are regarded as having the greatest
capacity for timely payment.  Issues in this category are delineated with
the numbers 1, 2 and 3 to indicate the relative degree of safety.

                                         A-1

      This designation indicates that the degree of safety regarding timely
payment is either overwhelming or very strong. Those issues determined to
possess overwhelming safety characteristics are denoted with a plus sign
(+) designation.

                                         A-2

      Capacity for timely payment on issues with this designation is
strong.  However, the relative degree of safety is not as high as for
issues designated A-1.

Moody's

Municipal Bond Ratings

                                         Aaa

      Bonds which are rated Aaa are judged to be of the best quality.  They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to
as "gilt edge."  Interest payments are protected by a large or by an
exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure.  While the various
protective elements are likely to change, such changes as can be
visualized are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position
of such issues.

                                         Aa

      Bonds which are rated Aa are judged to be of high quality by all
standards.  Together with the Aaa group they comprise what generally are
known as high-grade bonds.  They are rated lower than the best bonds
because margins of protection may not be as large as in Aaa securities or
fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude or there
may be other elements present which make the long-term risks appear
somewhat larger than in Aaa securities.

                                          A

      Bonds which are rated A possess many favorable investment attributes
and are to be considered as upper-medium grade obligations.  Factors
giving security to principal and interest are considered adequate, but
elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility to impairment some
time in the future.

                                         Baa

      Bonds which are rated Baa are considered as medium grade obligations,
i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured.  Interest
payments and principal security appear adequate for the present but
certain protective elements may be lacking or may be characteristically
unreliable over any great length of time.  Such bonds lack outstanding
investment characteristics and in fact have speculative characteristics as
well.

                                         Ba

      Bonds which are rated Ba are judged to have speculative elements;
their future cannot be considered as well assured.  Often the protection
of interest and principal payments may be very moderate, and therefore not
well safeguarded during both good and bad times over the future.
Uncertainty of position characterizes bonds in this class.

                                          B

      Bonds which are rated B generally lack characteristics of the
desirable investment.  Assurance of interest and principal payments or of
maintenance of other terms of the contract over any long period of time
may be small.

                                         Caa

      Bonds which are rated Caa are of poor standing.  Such issues may be
in default or there may be present elements of danger with respect to
principal or interest.

                                         Ca

      Bonds which are rated Ca present obligations which are speculative in
a high degree.  Such issues are often in default or have other marked
shortcomings.

                                          C

      Bonds which are rated C are the lowest rated class of bonds, and
issues so rated can be regarded as having extremely poor prospects of ever
attaining any real investment standing.

      Moody's applies the numerical modifiers 1, 2 and 3 to show relative
standing within the major rating categories, except in the Aaa category
and in categories below B.  The modifier 1 indicates a ranking for the
security in the higher end of a rating category; the modifier 2 indicates
a mid-range ranking; and the modifier 3 indicates a ranking in the lower
end of a rating category.

Municipal Note Ratings

      Moody's ratings for state and municipal notes and other short-term
loans are designated Moody's Investment Grade (MIG).  Such ratings
recognize the differences between short-term credit risk and long-term
risk.  Factors affecting the liquidity of the borrower and short-term
cyclical elements are critical in short-term ratings, while other factors
of major importance in bond risk, long-term secular trends for example,
may be less important over the short run.

      A short-term rating may also be assigned on an issue having a demand
feature.  Such ratings will be designated as VMIG or, if the demand
feature is not rated, as NR.  Short-term ratings on issues with demand
features are differentiated by the use of the VMIG symbol to reflect such
characteristics as payment upon periodic demand rather than fixed maturity
dates and payment relying on external liquidity.  Additionally, investors
should be alert to the fact that the source of payment may be limited to
the external liquidity with no or limited legal recourse to the issuer in
the event the demand is not met.

      Moody's short-term ratings are designated Moody's Investment Grade as
MIG 1 or VMIG 1 through MIG 4 or VMIG 4.  As the name implies, when
Moody's assigns a MIG or VMIG rating, all categories define an investment
grade situation.

                                    MIG 1/VMIG 1

      This designation denotes best quality.  There is present strong
protection by established cash flows, superior liquidity support or
demonstrated broad-based access to the market for refinancing.

                                    MIG 2/VMIG 2

      This designation denotes high quality.  Margins of protection are
ample although not so large as in the preceding group.

Commercial Paper Ratings

      The rating Prime-1 (P-1) is the highest commercial paper rating
assigned by Moody's.  Issuers of P-1 paper must have a superior capacity
for repayment of short-term promissory obligations, and will normally be
evidenced by leading market positions in well established industries, high
rates of return on funds employed, conservative capitalization structures
with moderate reliance on debt and ample asset protection, broad margins
in earnings coverage of fixed financial charges and high internal cash
generation, and well established access to a range of financial markets
and assured sources of alternate liquidity.

      Issuers (or related supporting institutions) rated Prime-2 (P-2) have
a strong capacity for repayment of short-term promissory obligations.
This will normally be evidenced by many of the characteristics cited above
but to a lesser degree.  Earnings trends and coverage ratios, while sound,
will be more subject to variation.  Capitalization characteristics, while
still appropriate, may be more affected by external conditions.  Ample
alternate liquidity is maintained.

Fitch

Municipal Bond Ratings

      The ratings represent Fitch's assessment of the issuer's ability to
meet the obligations of a specific debt issue or class of debt.  The
ratings take into consideration special features of the issue, its
relationship to other obligations of the issuer, the current financial
condition and operative performance of the issuer and of any guarantor, as
well as the political and economic environment that might affect the
issuer's future financial strength and credit quality.

                                         AAA

      Bonds rated AAA are considered to be investment grade and of the
highest credit quality.  The obligor has an exceptionally strong ability
to pay interest and repay principal, which is unlikely to be affected by
reasonably foreseeable events.

                                         AA

      Bonds rated AA are considered to be investment grade and of very high
credit quality.  The obligor's ability to pay interest and repay principal
is very strong, although not quite as strong as bonds rated AAA.  Because
bonds rated in the AAA and AA categories are not significantly vulnerable
to foreseeable future developments, short-term debt of these issuers is
generally rated F-1+.

                                          A

      Bonds rated A are considered to be investment grade and of high
credit quality.  The obligor's ability to pay interest and repay principal
is considered to be strong, but may be more vulnerable to adverse changes
in economic conditions and circumstances than bonds with higher ratings.

                                         BBB

      Bonds rated BBB are considered to be investment grade and of
satisfactory credit quality.  The obligor's ability to pay interest and
repay principal is considered to be adequate.  Adverse changes in economic
conditions and circumstances, however, are more likely to have an adverse
impact on these bonds and, therefore, impair timely payment.  The
likelihood that the ratings of these bonds will fall below investment
grade is higher than for bonds with higher ratings.

                                         BB

      Bonds rated BB are considered speculative.  The obligor's ability to
pay interest and repay principal may be affected over time by adverse
economic changes.  However, business and financial alternatives can be
identified which could assist the obligor in satisfying its debt service
requirements.

                                          B

      Bonds rated B are considered highly speculative.  While bonds in this
class are currently meeting debt service requirements, the probability of
continued timely payment of principal and interest reflects the obligor's
limited margin of safety and the need for reasonable business and economic
activity throughout the life of the issue.

                                         CCC

      Bonds rated CCC have certain identifiable characteristics, which, if
not remedied, may lead to default.  The ability to meet obligations
requires an advantageous business and economic environment.

                                         CC

      Bonds rated CC are minimally protected.  Default payment of interest
and/or principal seems probable over time.

                                          C

      Bonds rated C are in imminent default in payment of interest or
principal.

                                    DDD, DD and D

      Bonds rated DDD, DD and D are in actual or imminent default of
interest and/or principal payments. Such bonds are extremely speculative
and should be valued on the basis of their ultimate recovery value in
liquidation or reorganization of the obligor.  DDD represents the highest
potential for recovery on these bonds and D represents the lowest
potential for recovery.

      Plus (+) and minus (-) signs are used with a rating symbol to
indicate the relative position of a credit within the rating category.
Plus and minus signs, however, are not used in the AAA category covering
12-36 months or the DDD, DD or D categories.

Short-Term Ratings

      Fitch's short-term ratings apply to debt obligations that are payable
on demand or have original maturities of up to three years, including
commercial paper, certificates of deposit, medium-term notes, and
municipal and investment notes.

      Although the credit analysis is similar to Fitch's bond rating
analysis, the short-term rating places greater emphasis than bond ratings
on the existence of liquidity necessary to meet the issuer's obligations
in a timely manner.

                                        F-1+

      Exceptionally Strong Credit Quality.  Issues assigned this rating are
regarded as having the strongest degree of assurance for timely payment.

                                         F-1

      Very Strong Credit Quality.  Issues assigned this rating reflect an
assurance of timely payment only slightly less in degree than issues rated
F-1+.

                                         F-2

      Good Credit Quality.  Issues carrying this rating have a satisfactory
degree of assurance for timely payments, but the margin of safety is not
as great as the F-1+ and F-1 categories.

DREYFUS CALIFORNIA INTERMEDIATE MUNICIPAL BOND FUND
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
    Reference is made to page 4 of the Fund's prospectus dated
August 1, 1996.



DREYFUS CALIFORNIA INTERMEDIATE MUNICIPAL BOND FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1-SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
    Dreyfus California Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund (the "Fund") is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("Act") as a
non-diversified open-end management investment company. The Fund's objective
is to provide investors with as high a level of current income exempt from
Federal and State of California personal income taxes as is consistent with
the preservation of capital. The Dreyfus Corporation ("Manager") serves as
the Fund's investment adviser. The Manager is a direct subsidiary of Mellon
Bank, N.A. Premier Mutual Fund Services, Inc. (the "Distributor") acts as the
distributor of the Fund's shares, which are sold to the public without a
sales charge.
    (A) PORTFOLIO VALUATION: The Fund's investments (excluding options and
financial futures on municipal and U.S. treasury securities) are valued each
business day by an independent pricing service ("Service") approved by the
Board of Trustees. Investments for which quoted bid prices are readily
available and are representative of the bid side of the market in the
judgment of the Service are valued at the mean between the quoted bid prices
(as obtained by the Service from dealers in such securities) and asked prices
(as calculated by the Service based upon its evaluation of the market for
such securities). Other investments (which constitute a majority of the
portfolio securities) are carried at fair value as determined by the Service,
based on methods which include consideration of: yields or prices of
municipal securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type;
indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions. Options
and financial futures on municipal and U.S. treasury securities are valued at
the last sales price on the securities exchange on which such securities are
primarily traded or at the last sales price on the national securities market
on each business day. Investments not listed on an exchange or the national
securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are
valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices. Bid price is
used when no asked price is available.
    (B) SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME: Securities
transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gain and loss from
securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Interest
income, adjusted for amortization of premiums and original issue discounts on
investments, is earned from settlement date and recognized on the accrual
basis. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery
basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date.
    The Fund follows an investment policy of investing primarily in municipal
obligations of one state. Economic changes affecting the state and certain of
its public bodies and municipalities may affect the ability of issuers within
the state to pay interest on, or repay principal of, municipal obligations
held by the Fund.
    (C) DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS: It is the policy of the Fund to declare
dividends daily from investment income-net. Such dividends are paid monthly.
Dividends from net realized capital gain are normally declared and paid
annually, but the Fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to
comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. To
the extent that net realized capital gain can be offset by capital loss
carryovers, it is the policy of the Fund not to distribute such gain.
    (D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the policy of the Fund to continue to
qualify as a regulated investment company, which can distribute tax exempt
dividends, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code, and to make distributions of income and net realized capital
gain sufficient to relieve it from substantially all Federal income and
excise taxes.

DREYFUS CALIFORNIA INTERMEDIATE MUNICIPAL BOND FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

    The Fund has an unused capital loss carryover of approximately $7,187,000
available for Federal income tax purposes to be applied against future net
securities profit, if any, realized subsequent to March 31, 1996. The
carryover does not include net realized securities losses from November 1,
1995 through March 31, 1996 which are treated, for Federal income tax
purposes, as arising in fiscal 1997. If not applied, $2,551,000 of the
carryover expires in fiscal 2003 and $4,636,000 expires in fiscal 2004.
NOTE 2-MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES:
    (A) Pursuant to a management agreement ("Agreement") with the Manager,
the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .60 of 1% of the value
of the Fund's average daily net assets and is payable monthly. The Agreement
provides for an expense reimbursement from the Manager should the Fund's
aggregate expenses, exclusive of taxes, brokerage, interest on borrowings and
extraordinary expenses, exceed the expense limitation of any state having
jurisdiction over the Fund for any full fiscal year. The most stringent state
expense limitation applicable to the Fund presently requires reimbursement of
expenses in any full fiscal year that such expenses (exclusive of certain
expenses as described above) exceed 2 1/2% of the first $30 million, 2% of the
next $70 million and 1 1/2% of the excess over $100 million of the average
value of the Fund's net assets in accordance with California "blue sky"
regulations. However, the Manager had undertaken from April 1, 1995 through
September 30, 1995, to reduce the management fee paid by the Fund, to the
extent that the Fund's aggregate expenses (exclusive of certain expenses as
described above) exceeded specified annual percentages of the Fund's average
daily net assets. The Manager has currently undertaken from October 1, 1995
through June 30, 1996, to reduce the management fee paid by, or reimburse
such excess expenses of the Fund, to the extent that the Fund's aggregate
annual expenses (exclusive of certain expenses as described above) exceed an
annual rate of .75 of 1% of the value of the Fund's average daily net assets.
The reduction in management fee, pursuant to the undertakings, amounted to
$341,281 for the year ended March 31, 1996.
    The undertaking may be modified by the Manager from time to time,
providing that the resulting expense reimbursement would not be less than the
amount required pursuant to the Agreement.
    (B) Pursuant to the Fund's Shareholder Services Plan, the Fund reimburses
Dreyfus Service Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, an
amount not to exceed an annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the Fund's
average daily net assets for certain allocated expenses of providing personal
services and/or maintaining shareholder accounts. The services provided may
include personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such as answering
shareholder inquiries regarding the Fund and providing reports and other
information, and services related to the maintenance of shareholder accounts.
During the year ended March 31, 1996, the Fund was charged an aggregate of
$133,436 pursuant to the Shareholder Services Plan.
    Effective December 1, 1995, the Fund compensates Dreyfus Transfer, Inc.,
a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, under a transfer agency agreement
for providing personnel and facilities to perform transfer agency services
for the Fund. Such compensation amounted to $34,458 for the period from
December 1, 1995 through March 31, 1996.
    (C) Each trustee who is not an "affiliated person" as defined in the Act
receives from the Fund an annual fee of $1,500 and an attendance fee of $500
per meeting. The Chairman of the Board receives an additional 25% of such
compensation.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

NOTE 3-SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS:
    The aggregate amount of purchases and sales of investment securities,
excluding short-term securities, for the year ended March 31, 1996 amounted
to $96,658,158 and $120,335,749, respectively.
    At March 31, 1996, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments
was $3,901,047, consisting of $5,355,042 gross unrealized appreciation and
$1,453,995 gross unrealized depreciation.
    At March 31, 1996, the cost of investments for Federal income tax
purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting
purposes (see the Statement of Investments).

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES
DREYFUS CALIFORNIA INTERMEDIATE MUNICIPAL BOND FUND
    We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Dreyfus California Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund, including the statement
of investments, as of March 31, 1996, and the related statement of operations
for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of
the two years in the period then ended and financial highlights for each of
the years indicated therein. These financial statements and financial
highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits.
    We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and
financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of March 31, 1996 by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide
a reasonable basis for our opinion.
    In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Dreyfus California Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund at March 31,
1996, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in
its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the
financial highlights for each of the indicated years, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

Item 27.    Indemnification
_______     _______________

            Reference is made to Article EIGHTH of the Registrant's Amended
            and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust incorporated by
            reference to Exhibit 1 to Pre-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the
            Fund's Registration Statement filed under the Securities Act of
            1933 on April 14, 1992.  The application of these provisions is
            limited by Article 10 of the Registrant's By-Laws, incorporated
            by reference to Exhibit 2 of Pre-Effective Amendment No. 1 to
            the Registration Statement, and by the following undertaking set
            forth in the rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
            Commission:

               Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
               arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may
               be permitted to trustees, officers and
               controlling persons of the registrant pursuant
               to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
               registrant has been advised that in the
               opinion of the Securities and Exchange
               Commission such indemnification is against
               public policy as expressed in such Act as is,
               therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a
               claim for indemnification against such
               liabilities (other than the payment by the
               registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
               trustee, officer or controlling person of the
               registration in the successful defense of any
               action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by
               such trustee, officer or controlling person in
               connection with the securities being
               registered, the registrant will, unless in the
               opinion of its counsel the matter has been
               settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
               court of appropriate jurisdiction the question
               whether such indemnification by it is against
               public policy as expressed in such Act and
               will be governed by the final adjudication of
               such issue.
