Registration Statement on Form N-1A
(Registration No. 33-54763)
Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule 477 of the General Rules and Regulations
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Dreyfus Equity
Funds, Inc. (the "Fund") desires to withdraw, and hereby
requests that the Commission withdraw, the above-referenced
Registration Statement. The Fund believes that such action
would be consistent with the public interest and the protection
of investors since the Fund has not made a public offering of
its shares of common stock and the above-referenced Registration
Statement has not been declared effective by the Staff of the
Commission.
Very truly yours,
DREYFUS EQUITY FUNDS, INC.
