SUPPLEMENT dated July 26, 1996 to
PROSPECTUS dated March 1, 1996, as supplemented June 7, 1996
The last two sentences of the second paragraph under "HOW TO
REDEEM SHARES" on page 13 of the Prospectus are hereby
replaced with the following:
"Pursuant to the Trust's Declaration of Trust, payment for shares
redeemed may be made either in cash or in-kind, or partly in cash
and partly in-kind. However, the Trust has elected pursuant to
Rule 18f-1 under the 1940 Act to redeem its shares solely in cash
up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the net asset value of the
Fund, during any ninety-day period for any one shareholder.
Payments in excess of this limit by any of the Funds will
also be made wholly in cash unless the Board of Trustees believes
that economic conditions exist which would make such a practice
detrimental to the best interests of any such Fund. Any portfolio
securities paid or distributed in-kind would be valued as described
under "HOW SHARES ARE VALUED". In the event that an in-kind
distribution is made, you may incur additional expenses,
such as the payment of brokerage commissions, on the sale or other
disposition of the securities received from a Fund. In-kind
payments need not constitute a cross-section of the Fund's
portfolio."
YOU SHOULD MAINTAIN THIS SUPPLEMENT
WITH THE PROSPECTUS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
