          Supplement to Statement of Additional Information dated March 1,
          1995, revised to November 22, 1995
          _________________________________________________________________

               The section entitled "Pricing of Securities" beginning on
          page 38 has been revised to read as follows:

                                PRICING OF SECURITIES

               Fixed income securities are generally traded in the over-
          the-counter market.  Investments in securities with remaining
          maturities of one year or more are stated at fair value using a
          bid-side valuation as furnished by dealers who make markets in
          such securities or by an independent pricing service, which
          considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon,
          maturity, and type, as well as prices quoted by dealers who make
          markets in such securities.

               Except with respect to certain securities held by the Money
          Fund, securities with remaining maturities less than one year are
          stated at fair value which is determined by using a matrix system
          that establishes a value for each security based on bid-side
          money market yields.  Securities originally purchased by the
          Money Fund are valued at amortized cost.

               There are a number of pricing services available, and the
          Directors of the Funds, on the basis of ongoing evaluation of
          these services, may use or may discontinue the use of any pricing
          service in whole or in part.

               Securities or other assets for which the above valuation
          procedures are deemed not to reflect fair value will be appraised
          at prices deemed best to reflect their fair value.  Such
          determinations will be made in good faith by or under the
          supervision of officers of each Fund as authorized by the Board
          of Directors.  

            Maintenance of Money Fund's Net Asset Value Per Share at $1.00

               It is the policy of the Fund to attempt to maintain a net
          asset value of $1.00 per share by using the amortized cost method
          of valuation permitted by Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company
          Act of 1940.  Under this method, securities are valued by
          reference to the Fund's acquisition cost as adjusted for 
















          PAGE 2
          amortization of premium or accumulation of discount rather than
          by reference to their market value.  Under Rule 2a-7:

                    (a)  The Board of Directors must establish written
                    procedures reasonably designed, taking into account
                    current market conditions and the fund's investment
                    objectives, to stabilize the Fund's net asset value per
                    share, as computed for the purpose of distribution,
                    redemption and repurchase, at a single value;

                    (b)  The Fund must (i) maintain a dollar-weighted
                    average portfolio maturity appropriate to its objective
                    of maintaining a stable price per share, (ii) not
                    purchase any instrument with a remaining maturity
                    greater than 397 days, and (iii) maintain a
                    dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of 90 days
                    or less; 

                    (c)  The Fund must limit its purchase of portfolio
                    instruments, including repurchase agreements, to those
                    U.S. dollar-denominated instruments which the Fund's
                    Board of Directors determines present minimal credit
                    risks, and which are eligible securities as defined by
                    Rule 2a-7 (eligible Securities are generally securities
                    which have been rated or whose issuer has been rated or
                    whose issuer has comparable securities rated in one of
                    the two highest rating categories by nationally
                    recognized statistical rating organizations or, in the
                    case of any instrument that is not so rated, is of
                    comparable quality as determined by procedures adopted
                    by the Fund's Board of Directors); and

                    (d)  The Board of Directors must determine that (i) it
                    is in the best interest of the Fund and its
                    shareholders to maintain a stable net asset value per
                    share under the amortized cost method; and (ii) the
                    Fund will continue to use the amortized cost method
                    only so long as the Board of Directors believes that it
                    fairly reflects the Fund's market based net asset value
                    per share.

               Although the Fund believes that it will be able to maintain
          its net asset value at $1.00 per share under most conditions,
          there can be no absolute assurance that it will be able to do so
          on a continuous basis.  If the Fund's net asset value per share
          declined, or was expected to decline, below $1.00 (rounded to the
          nearest one cent), the Board of Directors of the Fund might
          temporarily reduce or suspend dividend payments in an effort to
          maintain the net asset value at $1.00 per share.  As a result of
          such reduction or suspension of dividends, an investor would 















          PAGE 3
          receive less income during a given period than if such a
          reduction or suspension had not taken place.  Such action could
          result in an investor receiving no dividend for the period during
          which he holds his shares and in his receiving, upon redemption,
          a price per share lower than that which he paid.  On the other
          hand, if the Fund's net asset value per share were to increase,
          or were anticipated to increase above $1.00 (rounded to the
          nearest one cent), the Board of Directors of the Fund might
          supplement dividends in an effort to maintain the net asset value
          at $1.00 per share.
