The following information supplements the information contained in the
Statement of Additional Information:
YEAR 2000 ISSUES
The Fund could be adversely affected if the computer systems used by
Dreyfus and the Fund's other service providers do not properly process and
calculate date-related information from and after January 1, 2000.
Dreyfus is working to avoid year 2000-related problems in its systems and
to obtain assurances from other service providers that they are taking similar
steps. In addition, issuers of securities in which the Fund invests may be
adversely affected by year 2000-related problems. This could have an impact on
the value of the fund's investments and its share price.
