Principal Investment Strategy
As a money market fund, the fund is subject to maturity, quality, liquidity and
diversification requirements designed to help it maintain a stable share price
of $1.00. To pursue its goal, the fund only invests in securities issued or
guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government. The fund is
managed so that income paid by the fund will be exempt from state and local
taxes. U.S. government securities are considered to be among the highest quality
instruments available. By investing in these securities, the fund seeks greater
credit safety for investors. In exchange for the level of credit safety offered
by U.S. government securities, the fund's yield may be lower than the yield of
money market funds that do not limit their investments to U.S. government
securities.
Principal Risks
An investment in the fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other government agency. Although the fund
seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is
possible to lose money by investing in the fund.

The fund's yield will fluctuate as the short-term securities in its portfolio
mature and the proceeds are reinvested in securities with different interest
rates. Additionally, while the fund has maintained a constant share price since
inception, and will continue to try to do so, neither The Dreyfus Corporation
nor its affiliates are required to make a capital infusion, enter into a capital
support agreement or take other actions to prevent the fund's share price from
falling below $1.00. The following are the principal risks that could reduce the
fund's income level and/or share price:

o Interest rate risk. This risk refers to the decline in the prices of
fixed-income securities that may accompany a rise in the overall level of
interest rates. A sharp and unexpected rise in interest rates could cause a
money market fund's share price to drop below a dollar.

o U.S. Treasury securities risk. A security backed by the U.S. Treasury or the
full faith and credit of the United States is guaranteed only as to the timely
payment of interest and principal when held to maturity, but the market prices
for such securities are not guaranteed and will fluctuate. Because U.S. Treasury
securities trade actively outside the United States, their prices may rise and
fall as changes in global economic conditions affect the demand for these
securities.

o Liquidity risk. When there is little or no active trading market for specific
types of securities, it can become more difficult to sell the securities at or
near their perceived value. In such a market, the value of such securities may
fall dramatically, potentially lowering the fund's share price, even during
periods of declining interest rates. Also, during such periods, redemptions by a
few large investors in the fund may have a significant adverse effect on the
fund's net asset value and remaining fund shareholders.
