PROPOSAL NO. 1 -- ELECTION OF DIRECTORS AND TRUSTEES

ALL FUNDS (except Florida Insured Intermediate Tax-Free Fund)

Who are the nominees for director or trustee?

The Boards have proposed a slate of the seven persons listed in Table 1 for
election as director or trustee, each to hold office until the next annual
meeting (if any) or until his successor is duly elected and qualified. Each of
the nominees is a member of the present Board of Trustees/Directors of each fund
and has served in that capacity since originally elected.

A shareholder using the enclosed proxy card can vote for all or any of the
nominees or withhold his or her vote from all or any of such nominees. If the
proxy card is properly executed but unmarked, it will be voted for all of the
nominees. Each of the nominees has agreed to serve as a trustee or director if
elected; however, should any nominee become unable or unwilling to accept
nomination or election, the persons named in the proxy will exercise their
voting power in favor of such other person or persons as the Boards of the funds
may recommend. There are no family relationships among these nominees.

Shareholders are being asked to elect the Board of Trustees/Directors of their
respective fund(s) only.

Do the nominees have a stake in the funds?

The Boards of the funds believe it is important that each nominee for trustee
and director have an investment in the T. Rowe Price funds. The nominees
allocate their investments among the 86 T. Rowe Price funds based on their own
investment objectives. Table 1 lists each nominee's investment in the funds as
well as his total investment in all of the T. Rowe Price funds.

What are the primary responsibilities of each fund's Board members?

They are responsible for the general oversight of each fund's business and for
assuring that each fund is managed in the best interests of its shareholders.
The trustees/directors periodically review the
performance, expenses, and service providers of the funds based on reports
provided by T. Rowe Price personnel, auditors, and legal counsel.

How often does each fund's Board meet?

The Board of Trustees/Directors of the funds held five meetings during fiscal
year 1997, and each director/trustee standing for reelection attended 75% or
more of those meetings. The Boards of Trustees/ Directors have held three
meetings so far during fiscal year 1998, and each director/trustee standing for
reelection has attended all of the meetings with the exception of Mr. Deering,
who has attended one meeting. Each Board currently has three committees,
described in the following paragraphs.

The Executive Committee is authorized to assume all the powers of the Board to
manage each fund in the intervals between meetings of the Board, except the
powers prohibited by statute from being delegated. If all nominees are elected,
this committee will continue to consist of the interested trustees/directors of
each fund, Messrs. Reynolds, Riepe, and Testa. The committee does not normally
hold formal meetings.

The Nominating Committee, which functions only in an advisory capacity, is
responsible for reviewing and recommending to the full Board candidates for
election as independent directors or trustees to fill vacancies on each fund's
Board. The Nominating Committee will consider written recommendations from
shareholders for possible nominees. Shareholders should submit their
recommendations to the secretary of the funds. Members of the Nominating
Committee are Messrs. Burnett, Deering, Linaweaver, and Schreiber. They met
informally during the last fiscal year, but the committee as such held no formal
meetings.

The Joint Audit Committee includes at least one independent trustee/ director
representing each of the T. Rowe Price funds. Messrs. Schreiber and Linaweaver,
nominees of the funds, are members of the committee. The other members are
Donald W. Dick, Jr., and Hubert D. Vos, independent directors of other T. Rowe
Price funds. These directors also receive a fee of $1,000 for each committee
meeting attended. The Audit Committee holds two regular meetings during each
fiscal year, at which time it meets with the independent accountants of the T.
Rowe Price funds to review: (1) the services provided; (2) the findings of the
most recent audit; (3) management's response to the findings of the most recent
audit; (4) the scope of the audit to be performed; (5) the accountants' fees;
and (6) any accounting or other questions relating to particular areas of the T.
Rowe Price funds' operations or the operations of parties dealing with the T.
Rowe Price funds, as circumstances indicate. The Audit Committee met twice in
1997 and once so far in 1998. All members of the committee participated in the
meetings.

What are the directors/trustees paid for their services to the funds?

Messrs. Reynolds, Riepe, and Testa are employed by, and thus are considered
"interested persons" of, T. Rowe Price. Therefore, they are not entitled to
compensation or benefits from the funds for their service as trustees/directors
of the funds.

Messrs. Burnett, Deering, Linaweaver, and Schreiber are the independent, or
noninterested, trustees/directors of the funds. Their trustees'/directors' fees
are based on the following fee schedule applicable to all independent
directors/trustees of the T. Rowe Price funds: an annual retainer of $65,000 per
year for service on the Boards of the T. Rowe Price domestic funds, an
additional annual retainer of $15,000 for service on the boards of the T. Rowe
Price international funds, and a fee of $1,000 for each Audit Committee meeting
attended. The Price fund group included 86 funds at June 30, 1998. The
independent trustees/directors of the funds do not receive any pension or
retirement benefits from the funds or T. Rowe Price.

Table 3 provides the independent trustees'/directors' accrued compensation for
the most recently completed fiscal year of each fund and their total
compensation for the period January 1, 1997, through December 31, 1997. The fund
complex included 84 funds as of December 31, 1997. The fees are allocated to
each fund under a formula which includes a base fee and a fee based on the net
assets of each fund relative to the other funds.

What vote is required to elect the trustees/directors?

For all funds other than the Fixed Income Series, the Summit Funds, and the U.S.
Treasury Funds, each fund votes separately and a plurality of the votes of each
fund cast at the meeting is sufficient to approve the election of a
trustee/director of that fund. For the Fixed Income Series, the Summit Funds,
and the U.S. Treasury Funds (each a "corporation"), each corporation votes
separately but all funds of each corporation vote together. A plurality of the
combined votes cast at the meeting by the shareholders of all funds of each
corporation is sufficient to approve the election of a director of that
corporation. THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES/DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE
FOR ALL OF THE PROPOSED NOMINEES.

PROPOSAL NO. 2 -- SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

All Funds

The selection by the Board of Trustees/Directors of the firm of
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the independent accountants for the funds for
their current fiscal year is to be submitted for ratification or rejection by
the shareholders at the annual meeting. The firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
has served each fund as independent accountants since its inception. The
independent accountants have advised the funds that they have no direct or
material indirect financial interest in the funds. Representatives of the firm
of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP are expected to be present at
the annual meeting and will be available to make a statement, if they desire to
do so, and to respond to appropriate questions which the shareholders may wish
to address to them. Table 4 lists the various fiscal year-ends for the funds.

vote by a majority of the shares cast at the meeting of each fund in person or
by proxy. THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES/DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR
THE PROPOSAL.

PROPOSAL NO. 3 -- AMENDMENT OF THE INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES OF FLORIDA INSURED
INTERMEDIATE TAX-FREE FUND AND T. ROWE PRICE INSURED INTERMEDIATE BOND FUND,
INC.

The directors/trustees of the Tax-Free Insured Intermediate Bond and Florida
Insured Intermediate Funds recommend changing each fund's investment objective
to remove the requirement that each fund seek to minimize credit risk by
investing primarily in insured bonds. Additionally, the Florida Insured
Intermediate Tax-Free Fund's objective would be revised to make it clear that
the fund seeks to achieve its goal in a manner consistent with moderate price
fluctuation.

Today, about 50% of new municipal bonds coming to market carry bond insurance
compared with about 30% earlier in the decade when your funds began. As a
result, even if the proposed change is approved, the funds are likely to
continue holding a large number of insured bonds. The Board of
Directors/Trustees believes you will be better served over time if your fund
managers have more flexibility in selecting bonds for the portfolios while
seeking to still maintain high overall credit quality for the portfolios.

As you no doubt know, diversification of assets typically reduces the volatility
of a portfolio while increasing opportunities to enhance returns. Volatility is
reduced because different types of bonds may respond differently to changes in
interest rates and economic conditions, smoothing out the impact of such changes
on a portfolio. Therefore, greater diversification in credit quality could
reduce the portfolios' overall risk and may increase their long-term return
potential.

A portfolio consisting primarily of insured bonds inhibits a manager's ability
to capitalize on such opportunities for two main reasons. First, prices of
insured bonds are affected mainly by interest rate changes, thereby increasing
the portfolio's overall volatility. And second, by essentially eliminating
differences in credit quality, insurance limits the ability of our managers to
take full advantage of T. Rowe Price's extensive research resources -- for
example, identifying bonds whose credit ratings seem likely to improve or that
seem temporarily mispriced by the market.

Of course, it is always possible that a fund consisting primarily of insured
bonds would have reduced volatility or experience fewer credit problems. The
current and proposed investment objectives of each fund are set forth below:

FLORIDA INSURED INTERMEDIATE TAX-FREE FUND

. CURRENT OBJECTIVE: To provide a high level of income exempt from federal
income taxes while minimizing credit risk by investing primarily in insured
Florida municipal bonds.

. PROPOSED OBJECTIVE: To provide a high level of income exempt from federal
income taxes consistent with moderate price fluctuation by investing
primarily in Florida municipal bonds.

TAX-FREE INSURED INTERMEDIATE BOND FUND

. CURRENT OBJECTIVE: A high level of income exempt from federal income taxes
consistent with moderate price fluctuation while minimizing credit risk by
investing primarily in insured municipal securities.

. PROPOSED OBJECTIVE: A high level of income exempt from federal income taxes
consistent with moderate price fluctuation by investing primarily in
municipal securities.

If you approve this change in the funds' investment objectives, the Board of
Directors/Trustees will remove the reference to insurance in their names to
reflect their broader diversification. Their names would be the Tax-Free
Intermediate Bond Fund and the Florida Intermediate Tax-Free Fund.

What vote is required to approve this amendment to each fund's investment
objective?

Proposal No. 3 requires the affirmative vote of the lesser of (a) 67% of the
shares present at the meeting of the fund in person or by proxy or (b) a
majority of the fund's outstanding shares. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS/ TRUSTEES OF
EACH FUND RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR THE PROPOSAL.

PROPOSAL NO. 4 -- AMENDMENT OF ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO AUTHORIZE CREATION
OF SERIES AND CLASSES AND TO CONFORM THE PROVISIONS DESCRIBING SERIES AND
CLASSES TO THOSE STANDARD FOR OTHER T. ROWE PRICE FUNDS

T. Rowe Price New Income Fund, Inc. T. Rowe Price Tax-Exempt Money Fund, Inc.

The Articles of Incorporation of the two funds listed above do not authorize
their Boards to divide fund shares into series or classes. This proposal asks
shareholders to approve or disapprove amending the Articles of Incorporation for
each fund to permit the use of series or classes. The change would bring these
charters in line with similar provisions in the charters of other T. Rowe Price
funds.

These amendments would authorize each fund's Board to create separate series of
shares. Each series would be its own "fund" and would represent an exclusive
interest in a separate portfolio of securities. The amendments would also
authorize each fund's Board of Directors to subdivide the shares (or any series
if the common stock is divided into series) into classes with identical voting,
dividend, and liquidation rights. Under the proposed amendments, shares of the
classes could be subject to differing front-end loads, contingent deferred sales
loads, expenses (including distribution expenses under a Rule 12b-1 plan and
administrative expenses under an administration or service agreement),
conversion rights, and class voting rights, to the extent permitted by Maryland
law, the Investment Company Act of 1940, and the rules and regulations of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. The proposed changes, if
adopted, will have no effect on existing fund shareholders.

These amendments, if approved, would give the funds additional flexibility in
two areas:

. LEVELS OF SERVICE. The ability to create classes of shares would enable us
to customize service levels for shareholders while allocating expenses
associated with those services to those who elect to use them. For example, a
separate class of Tax-Exempt Money Fund shares could be used as part of a
cash management-type account offering a debit card and unlimited
checkwriting. Investors desiring this type of account would purchase shares
in the new class, which, in turn, would bear the expense of the services.

. DISTRIBUTION OF SHARES. The various fee structures that can be used for
different classes of shares could allow investors to choose the purchasing
method best suited to their situation and, thus, attract shareholders to the
fund. Generally, higher asset totals increase investment flexibility and can
decrease some expenses due to economies of scale.

In addition, the potential to create share classes could help the funds
competitively, since many of their peers have or are seeking similar
authorization. For your reference, complete versions of the proposed Articles of
Amendment for the funds are contained in Exhibits I and II.

We want to emphasize that neither fund's Board has any current intention of
imposing sales loads or distribution expenses, and that any such action would
require advance notice to shareholders and, in certain instances, shareholder
approval.

What vote is required to approve this amendment to the funds' Articles of
Incorporation?

Proposal No. 4 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of each fund's
outstanding shares. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF EACH FUND RECOMMENDS THAT
SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR THE PROPOSAL.

FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT VOTING AND THE SHAREHOLDER MEETING

What is the required quorum?

To hold the meeting, a majority of each fund's shares entitled to be voted must
have been received by proxy or be present at the meeting. In the event that a
quorum is present but sufficient votes in favor of one or more of the proposals
are not received by the meeting date, the persons named as proxies may propose
one or more adjournments to permit further solicitation of proxies. Any such
adjournment
will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person
or by proxy at the meeting to be adjourned. The persons named as proxies will
vote in favor of such adjournment if they determine that additional solicitation
is reasonable and in the interests of the fund's shareholders.

How are the votes counted?

The individuals named as proxies (or their substitutes) on the enclosed proxy
card (or cards, if you have multiple funds or accounts) will vote according to
your directions if your proxy is received properly executed, or in accordance
with your instructions given when voting by telephone or Internet. You may
direct the proxy holders to vote your shares on a proposal by checking the
appropriate box "FOR" or "AGAINST," or instruct them not to vote those shares on
the proposal by checking the "ABSTAIN" box. Alternatively, you may simply sign,
date, and return your proxy card(s) with no specific instructions as to the
proposals. IF YOU PROPERLY EXECUTE YOUR PROXY CARD AND GIVE NO VOTING
INSTRUCTIONS WITH RESPECT TO A PROPOSAL, YOUR SHARES WILL BE VOTED FOR THE
PROPOSAL.

Abstentions and "broker non-votes" (as defined below) are counted for purposes
of determining whether a quorum is present for purposes of convening the
meeting. "Broker non-votes" are shares held by a broker or nominee for which an
executed proxy is received by the fund but are not voted as to one or more
proposals because instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners
or persons entitled to vote, and the broker or nominee does not have
discretionary voting power. If a proposal must be approved by a percentage of
votes cast on the proposal (proposals 1 and 2), abstentions and broker non-votes
will not be counted as "votes cast" on the proposal and will have no effect on
the result of the vote. If the proposal must be approved by a percentage of
voting securities present at the meeting or a majority of the fund's outstanding
shares (proposals 3 and 4), abstentions and broker non-votes will be considered
to be voting securities that are present and will have the effect of being
counted as votes against the proposal.

Can additional matters be acted upon at the annual meeting?

The management of the funds knows of no other business which may come before the
meeting. However, if any additional matters are properly presented at the
meeting, it is intended that the persons named in the enclosed proxy, or their
substitutes, will vote on such matters in accordance with their judgment.

How can proxies be recorded?

You may record your votes on the proxy card enclosed with this statement and
mail it in the prepaid envelope provided to Management Information Services
Corp., who the funds have retained
to tabulate the votes. In addition, the funds have arranged to have votes
recorded through the Internet or by telephone. The telephone and Internet voting
procedures are designed to authenticate shareholders' identities, to allow
shareholders to authorize the voting of their shares in accordance with their
instructions, and to confirm that their instructions have been properly
recorded.

How can proxies be solicited, and who pays for the costs involved?

Directors, officers, or employees of the funds or of its investment manager, T.
Rowe Price, may solicit proxies by mail, in person, or by telephone. In the
event that votes are solicited by telephone, shareholders would be called at the
telephone number T. Rowe Price has in its records for their accounts, and would
be asked for their Social Security number or other identifying information. The
shareholders would then be given an opportunity to authorize proxies to vote
their shares at the meeting in accordance with their instructions. To ensure
that shareholders' instructions have been recorded correctly, confirmation of
the instructions is also mailed. A special toll-free number will be available in
case the information contained in the confirmation is incorrect.

The costs of the meeting, including the solicitation of proxies, will be paid by
the funds. To ensure that sufficient shares of common stock are represented at
the meeting to permit approval of the proposals outlined in the proxy statement,
the funds may retain the services of a proxy solicitor to assist them in
soliciting proxies for a fee plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses.
Securities brokers, custodians, fiduciaries, and other persons holding shares as
nominees will be reimbursed, upon request, for their reasonable expenses in
sending solicitation materials to the principals of the accounts.

The approximate date on which this proxy statement and proxy card are first
being mailed to shareholders is September 3, 1998.

Can I change my vote after I mail my proxy?

Any proxy, including those given via the Internet or by telephone, may be
revoked at any time before it is voted by filing a written notice of revocation
with the funds, by delivering a properly executed proxy bearing a later date, or
by attending the meeting and voting in person.

Are the funds required to hold annual meetings?

Under Maryland and Massachusetts law, the funds are not required to hold annual
meetings. The Board of Trustees/Directors of each fund have determined that the
funds will take advantage of these Maryland and Massachusetts law provisions to
avoid the significant expense associated with holding annual meetings, including
legal, accounting, printing, and mailing fees incurred in preparing proxy
materials.

Accordingly, no annual meetings shall be held in any year in which a meeting is
not otherwise required to be held by the 1940 Act unless the Boards determine
otherwise. However, special meetings will be held in accordance with applicable
law or when otherwise determined by each fund's Board.

If a shareholder wishes to present a proposal to be included in the proxy
statement for the next shareholder meeting, the proposal must be submitted in
writing and received by Patricia S. Butcher, Secretary of the Funds, T. Rowe
Price Associates, Inc., 100 East Pratt Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21202, within
a reasonable time before the funds begin to print and mail their proxy
materials.

ARTICLES OF AMENDMENT
---------------------

T. Rowe Price New Income Fund, Inc., a Maryland corporation, having its
principal office in the City of Baltimore, Maryland (hereinafter called the
"Corporation"), hereby certifies to the State Department of Assessments and
Taxation of Maryland that:

FIRST: The Charter of the Corporation is hereby amended by deleting in its
-----
entirety Articles FIFTH and SEVENTH of the Articles of Incorporation and
substituting in lieu thereof the following:

FIFTH: (a) The total number of shares of stock of all classes and series which
the Corporation shall have the authority to issue is Three Hundred Million
(300,000,000) shares of capital stock of the par value of One Dollar ($1.00)
each, and of the aggregate par value of Three Hundred Million Dollars
($300,000,000). All of such shares are classified as "COMMON STOCK" of the "T.

reclassify any unissued shares of capital stock (whether or not such shares have
been previously classified or reclassified) by setting or changing in any one or
more respects the preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers,
restrictions, limitations as to dividends, qualifications, or terms or
conditions of redemption of such shares of stock.

(b)
The following is a description of the preferences, conversion and other rights,
voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends, qualifications, and
terms and conditions of redemption of the shares of Common Stock classified as
the "T. ROWE PRICE NEW INCOME" series and any additional series of Common Stock
of the Corporation (unless provided otherwise by the Board of Directors with
respect to any such additional series at the time it is established and
designated):

(1)ASSETS BELONGING TO SERIES. All consideration received by the
Corporation from the issue or sale of shares of a particular series,
together with all assets in which such consideration is invested or
reinvested, all income, earnings, profits and proceeds thereof,
including any proceeds derived from the sale, exchange or liquidation of
such assets, and any funds or payments derived from any investment or
reinvestment of such proceeds in whatever form the same may be, shall
irrevocably belong to that series for all purposes, subject only to the
rights of creditors, and shall be so recorded upon the books of account
of the Corporation. Such consideration, assets, income, earnings,
profits and proceeds, together with any General Items allocated to that
series as provided in the following sentence, are herein referred to
collectively as "assets belonging to" that series. In the event that
there are any assets, income, earnings, profits or proceeds which are
not readily identifiable as belonging to any particular series
(collectively, "GENERAL ITEMS"), such General Items shall be allocated
by or under the supervision of the Board
of Directors to and among any one or more of the series established and
designated from time to time in such manner and on such basis as the
Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, deems fair and equitable;
and any General Items so allocated to a particular series shall belong
to that series. Each such allocation by the Board of Directors shall be
conclusive and binding for all purposes.

(2)
LIABILITIES OF SERIES. The assets belonging to each particular series
shall be charged with the liabilities of the Corporation in respect of
that series and all expenses, costs, charges and reserves attributable
to that series, and any general liabilities, expenses, costs, charges or
reserves of the Corporation which are not readily identifiable as
pertaining to any particular series, shall be allocated and charged by
or under the supervision of the Board of Directors to and among any one
or more of the series established and designated from time to time in
such manner and on such basis as the Board of Directors, in its sole
discretion, deems fair and equitable. The liabilities, expenses, costs,
charges and reserves allocated and so charged to a series are herein
referred to collectively as "liabilities of" that series. Each
allocation of liabilities, expenses, costs, charges and reserves by or
under the supervision of the Board of Directors shall be conclusive and
binding for all purposes.

(3)
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. Dividends and capital gains distributions
on shares of a particular series may be paid with such frequency, in
such form and in such amount as the Board of Directors may determine by
resolution adopted from time to time, or pursuant to a standing
resolution or resolutions adopted only once or with such frequency as
the Board of Directors may determine, after providing for actual and
accrued liabilities of that series. All dividends on shares of a
particular series shall be paid only out of the income belonging to that
series and all capital gains distributions on shares of a particular
series shall be paid only out of the capital gains belonging to that
series. All dividends and distributions on shares of a particular series
shall be distributed pro rata to the holders of that series in
proportion to the number of shares of that series held by such holders
at the date and time of record established for the payment of such
dividends or distributions, except that in connection with any dividend
or distribution program or procedure, the Board of Directors may
determine that no dividend or distribution shall be payable on shares as
to which the shareholder's purchase order and/or payment have not been
received by the time or times established by the Board of Directors
under such program or procedure. Dividends and distributions may be paid
in cash, property or additional shares of the same or another series, or
a combination thereof, as determined by the Board of Directors or
pursuant to any program that the Board of Directors may have in effect
at the time for the election by shareholders of the form
in which dividends or distributions are to be paid. Any such dividend or
distribution paid in shares shall be paid at the current net asset value
thereof.

(4)
VOTING. On each matter submitted to a vote of the shareholders, each
holder of shares shall be entitled to one vote for each share standing
in his name on the books of the Corporation, irrespective of the series
thereof, and all shares of all series shall vote as a single class
("SINGLE CLASS VOTING"); provided, however, that (i) as to any matter
with respect to which a separate vote of any series is required by the
Investment Company Act or by the Maryland General Corporation Law, such
requirement as to a separate vote by that series shall apply in lieu of
Single Class Voting; (ii) in the event that the separate vote
requirement referred to in (i) above applies with respect to one or more
series, then, subject to (iii) below, the shares of all other series
shall vote as a single class; and (iii) as to any matter which does not
affect the interest of a particular series, including liquidation of
another series as described in subsection (7) below, only the holders of
shares of the one or more affected series shall be entitled to vote.

(5)
REDEMPTION BY SHAREHOLDERS. Each holder of shares of a particular series
shall have the right at such times as may be permitted by the
Corporation to require the Corporation to redeem all or any part of his
shares of that series, at a redemption price per share equal to the net
asset value per share of that series next determined after the shares
are properly tendered for redemption, less such redemption fee or sales
charge, if any, as may be established by the Board of Directors in its
sole discretion and disclosed in the current Prospectus or Statement of
Additional Information for the Corporation. Payment of the redemption
price shall be in cash; provided, however, that if the Board of
Directors determines, which determination shall be conclusive, that
conditions exist which make payment wholly in cash unwise or
undesirable, the Corporation may, to the extent and in the manner
permitted by the Investment Company Act, make payment wholly or partly
in securities or other assets belonging to the series of which the
shares being redeemed are a part, at the value of such securities or
assets used in such determination of net asset value. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Corporation may postpone payment of the redemption
price and may suspend the right of the holders of shares of any series
to require the Corporation to redeem shares of that series during any
period or at any time when and to the extent permissible under the
Investment Company Act.

(6)REDEMPTION BY CORPORATION. The Board of Directors may cause the
Corporation to redeem at net asset value the shares of any series from a
holder (i) if the Board of Directors of the Corporation determines in
its sole discretion that failure to so redeem such shares may have
materially adverse consequences
to the holders of shares of the Corporation or any series, or (ii) upon
such other conditions with respect to the maintenance of shareholder
accounts of a minimum amount as may from time to time be established by
the Board of Directors in its sole discretion and disclosed in the
Prospectus or Statement of Additional Information for the Corporation.

(7)
LIQUIDATION. In the event of the liquidation of a particular series, the
shareholders of the series that is being liquidated shall be entitled to
receive, as a class, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, the
excess of the assets belonging to that series over the liabilities of
that series. The holders of shares of any particular series shall not be
entitled thereby to any distribution upon liquidation of any other
series. The assets so distributable to the shareholders of any
particular series shall be distributed among such shareholders in
proportion to the number of shares of that series held by them and
recorded on the books of the Corporation. The liquidation of any
particular series in which there are shares then outstanding may be
authorized by vote of a majority of the Board of Directors then in
office, subject to the approval of a majority of the outstanding voting
securities of that series, as defined in the Investment Company Act, and
without the vote of the holders of shares of any other series. The
liquidation of a particular series may be accomplished, in whole or in
part, by the transfer of assets of such series to another series or by
the exchange of shares of such series for the shares of another series.

(8)
NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE. The net asset value per share of any series
shall be the quotient obtained by dividing the value of the net assets
of that series (being the value of the assets belonging to that series
less the liabilities of that series) by the total number of shares of
that series outstanding, all as determined by or under the direction of
the Board of Directors in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles and the Investment Company Act. Subject to the applicable
provisions of the Investment Company Act, the Board of Directors, in its
sole discretion, may prescribe and shall set forth in the By-Laws of the
Corporation or in a duly adopted resolution of the Board of Directors
such bases and times for determining the value of the assets belonging
to, and the net asset value per share of outstanding shares of, each
series, or the net income attributable to such shares, as the Board of
Directors deems necessary or desirable. The Board of Directors shall
have full discretion, to the extent not inconsistent with the Maryland
General Corporation Law and the Investment Company Act, to determine
which items shall be treated as income and which items as capital and
whether any item of expense shall be charged to income or capital. Each
such determination and allocation shall be conclusive and binding for
all purposes.

The Board of Directors may determine to maintain the net asset value per
share of any series at a designated constant dollar amount and in
connection therewith may adopt procedures not inconsistent with the
Investment Company Act for the continuing declaration of income
attributable to that series as dividends and for the handling of any
losses attributable to that series. Such procedures may provide that in
the event of any loss, each shareholder shall be deemed to have
contributed to the capital of the Corporation attributable to that
series his pro rata portion of the total number of shares required to be
canceled in order to permit the net asset value per share of that series
to be maintained, after reflecting such loss, at the designated constant
dollar amount. Each shareholder of the Corporation shall be deemed to
have agreed, by his investment in any series with respect to which the
Board of Directors shall have adopted any such procedure, to make the
contribution referred to in the preceding sentence in the event of any
such loss.

(9)CONVERSION OR EXCHANGE RIGHTS. Subject to compliance with the
requirements of the Investment Company Act, the Board of Directors shall
have the authority to provide that holders of shares of any series shall
have the right to convert or exchange said shares into shares of one or
more other classes or series of shares in accordance with such
requirements and procedures as may be established by the Board of
Directors and as disclosed in the Corporation's current Prospectus or
Statement of Additional Information.

(c)
The shares of Common Stock of the Corporation, or of any series of Common Stock
of the Corporation to the extent such Common Stock is divided into series, may
be further subdivided into classes (which may, for convenience of reference, be
referred by a term other than "class"). Unless otherwise provided in the
Articles Supplementary establishing such classes, all such shares, or all shares
of a series of Common Stock in a series, shall have identical voting, dividend,
and liquidation rights. Shares of the classes shall also be subject to such
front-end sales loads, contingent deferred sales charges, expenses (including,
without limitation, distribution expenses under a Rule 12b-1 plan and
administrative expenses under an administration or service agreement, plan or
other arrangement, however designated), conversion rights, and class voting
rights as shall be consistent with Maryland law, the Investment Company Act of
1940, and the rules and regulations of the National Association of Securities
Dealers and shall be contained in Articles Supplementary establishing such
classes.

(d)For the purposes hereof and of any articles supplementary to the charter
providing for the classification or reclassification of any shares of capital
stock or of any other charter document of the Corporation (unless otherwise
provided in any such articles or document), any class or series of stock of the
Corporation shall be deemed to rank:

(1)prior to another class or series either as to dividends or upon
liquidation, if the holders of such class or series shall be entitled to
the receipt of dividends or of amounts distributable on liquidation,
dissolution or winding up, as the case may be, in preference or priority
to holders of such other class or series;

(2)
on a parity with another class or series either as to dividends or upon
liquidation, whether or not the dividend rates, dividend payment dates
or redemption or liquidation price per share thereof be different from
those of such others, if the holders of such class or series of stock
shall be entitled to receipt of dividends or amounts distributable upon
liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as the case may be, in
proportion to their respective dividend rates or redemption or
liquidation prices, without preference or priority over the holders of
such other class or series; and

(3)junior to another class or series either as to dividends or upon
liquidation, if the rights of the holders of such class or series shall
be subject or subordinate to the rights of the holders of such other
class or series in respect of the receipt of dividends or the amounts
distributable upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as the case
may be.

(e)
Unless otherwise prohibited by law, so long as the Corporation is registered as
an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act, the
Board of Directors shall have the power and authority, without the approval of
the holders of any outstanding shares, to increase or decrease the number of
shares of capital stock or the number of shares of capital stock of any class or
series that the Corporation has authority to issue.

(f)
The Corporation may issue and sell fractions of shares of capital stock having
pro rata all the rights of full shares, including, without limitation, the right
to vote and to receive dividends, and wherever the words "share" or "shares" are
used in the charter or By-Laws of the Corporation, they shall be deemed to
include fractions of shares, where the context does not clearly indicate that
only full shares are intended.

(g)
The Corporation shall not be obligated to issue certificates representing shares
of any class or series of capital stock. At the time of issue or transfer of
shares without certificates, the Corporation shall provide the shareholder with
such information as may be required under the Maryland General Corporation Law.

SEVENTH: (a) The following provisions are hereby adopted for the purpose of
defining, limiting, and regulating the powers of the Corporation and of the
directors and shareholders:

(1)
The Board of Directors is hereby empowered to authorize the issuance
from time to time of shares of its stock of any class or series, whether
now or hereafter authorized, or securities convertible into shares of
its stock of any class or series, whether
now or hereafter authorized, for such consideration as may be deemed
advisable by the Board of Directors and without any action by the
shareholders.

(2)
No holder of any stock or any other securities of the Corporation,
whether now or hereafter authorized, shall have any preemptive right to
subscribe for or purchase any stock or any other securities of the
Corporation other than such, if any, as the Board of Directors, in its
sole discretion, may determine and at such price or prices and upon such
other terms as the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may fix;
and any stock or other securities which the Board of Directors may
determine to offer for subscription may, as the Board of Directors in
its sole discretion shall determine, be offered to the holders of any
class, series or type of stock or other securities at the time
outstanding to the exclusion of the holders of any or all other classes,
series or types of stock or other securities at the time outstanding.

(3)The Board of Directors of the Corporation shall, consistent with
applicable law, have power in its sole discretion to determine from time
to time in accordance with sound accounting practice or other reasonable
valuation methods what constitutes annual or other net profits,
earnings, surplus, or net assets in excess of capital; to determine that
retained earnings or surplus shall remain in the hands of the
Corporation; to set apart out of any funds of the Corporation such
reserve or reserves in such amount or amounts and for such proper
purpose or purposes as it shall determine and to abolish any such
reserve or any part thereof; to distribute and pay distributions or
dividends in stock, cash or other securities or property, out of surplus
or any other funds or amounts legally available therefor, at such times
and to the shareholders of record on such dates as it may, from time to
time, determine; and to determine whether and to what extent and at what
times and places and under what conditions and regulations the books,
accounts and documents of the Corporation, or any of them, shall be open
to the inspection of shareholders, except as otherwise provided by
statute or by the By-Laws, and, except as so provided, no shareholder
shall have any right to inspect any book, account or document of the
Corporation unless authorized so to do by resolution of the Board of
Directors.

(4)
Notwithstanding any provision of law requiring the authorization of any
action by a greater proportion than a majority of the total number of
shares of all classes and series of capital stock or of the total number
of shares of any class or series of capital stock entitled to vote as a
separate class, such action shall be valid and effective if authorized
by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the total number
of shares of all classes and series outstanding and entitled to vote
thereon, or of the class or series entitled to vote thereon as a
separate class, as the case may be, except as otherwise provided in the
charter of the Corporation.

(5)The Corporation reserves the right from time to time to make any
amendments of its charter which may now or hereafter be authorized by
law, including any amendments changing the terms or contract rights, as
expressly set forth in its charter, of any of its outstanding stock by
classification, reclassification or otherwise.

(b)
The enumeration and definition of particular powers of the Board of Directors
included in the foregoing shall in no way be limited or restricted by reference
to or inference from the terms of any other clause of this or any other Article
of the charter of the Corporation, or construed as or deemed by inference or
otherwise in any manner to exclude or limit any powers conferred upon the Board
of Directors under the General Laws of the State of Maryland now or hereafter in
force.

------
Corporation or the aggregate par value thereof.

THIRD: The Board of Directors of the Corporation declared these Articles to
-----
be advisable and adopted them at a meeting of the Board of Directors held on
July 22, 1998. The Board of Directors then recommended that these Amendments to

Proxy Information

This proxy material concerns the following T. Rowe Price Funds

Florida Insured Intermediate Tax-Free Fund
Tax-Free Insured Intermediate Bond Fund

Dear Shareholder:

We cordially invite you to attend the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the T.
Rowe Price Fixed Income Funds on Thursday, October 15, 1998. Several important
issues affecting your funds will be on the agenda, and we ask you to read the
enclosed information carefully and register your vote.

The directors and management of the Tax-Free Insured Intermediate Bond and
Florida Insured Intermediate Tax-Free Funds recommend a change in each fund's
investment objective, specifically, removing the requirement that each fund seek
to minimize credit risk by investing primarily (at least 65% of assets) in
insured bonds.

About 50% of new municipal bonds coming to market today carry bond insurance,
compared with about 30% earlier in the decade when your funds began. As a
result, even if the proposed change is approved, the funds are likely to
continue holding a large number of insured bonds. Nevertheless, we believe you
will be better served over time if your fund managers have more flexibility in
selecting bonds, while seeking to still maintain high overall credit quality,
for the following reasons:

. REDUCED VOLATILITY. As you no doubt know, diversification of assets
typically reduces the volatility of a portfolio while increasing
opportunities to enhance returns. Volatility is reduced because different
types of bonds may respond differently to changes in interest rates and
economic conditions, smoothing out the impact of such changes on a portfolio.
Therefore, greater diversification in credit quality could reduce the
portfolios' overall risk and may increase their long-term return potential.

. INCREASED OPPORTUNITIES. A portfolio consisting primarily of insured bonds
inhibits a manager's ability to capitalize on diversification opportunities
for two main reasons. First, insured bonds are generally more sensitive than
uninsured bonds to interest rate changes, thereby increasing the portfolio's
overall volatility. Second, by essentially eliminating differences in credit
quality, insurance limits our efforts to take full advantage of T. Rowe
Price's extensive research resources -- for example, identifying bonds whose
credit ratings are likely to improve or that seem undervalued by the market.

If you approve this change in the funds' investment programs, the directors will
remove the reference to insurance in their names to reflect their broader
diversification. Their names would become the Tax-Free Intermediate Bond Fund
and the Florida Intermediate Tax-Free Fund.

Shareholders of both funds will also be voting on the selection of independent
accountants, and shareholders of the Tax-Free Insured Intermediate Bond Fund
will be voting on the election of directors. Your vote is important on all
proposals, which are explained in detail in the following pages.

Instructions on how to vote by mail, by telephone, or through the Internet are
contained on the enclosed card. If you have any questions, please call us at
1-800-225-5132. YOUR VOTE IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT.

Dear Shareholder:

You are cordially invited to attend the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the T.
Rowe Price Fixed Income Funds on Thursday, October 15, 1998. Several important
issues affecting your funds will be on the agenda, and we ask you to read the
enclosed information carefully and register your vote.

The funds are holding shareholder meetings in 1998 to elect directors and
trustees, and to ratify the selection of independent accountants. In addition,
the directors of the New Income and Tax-Exempt Money Funds recommend conforming
their charters to those of other T. Rowe Price funds by changing their charters
to permit the creation of series and classes of shares for those funds. These
provisions would enable us to provide additional services for investors who want
them, and to allocate expenses accordingly.

For example: A new class of shares in Tax-Exempt Money Fund could allow the fund
to offer cash management services, including a debit card and checkwriting
privileges, with additional expenses paid by shareholders who use those services
rather than by existing shareholders.

Your fund's managers and directors believe you will be better served over time
by voting for these amendments. Since most of the proposals are common to all of
the funds, we have combined our discussion into a single proxy statement to
reduce fund expenses. If you own more than one fund, the combined proxy will
also save you the time of reading more than one document. Please note, however,
that if you own more than one fund, you must vote on a separate card for each
fund.

We realize that it may be difficult for you to attend the meeting and vote your
shares in person. HOWEVER, WE DO NEED YOUR VOTE. YOU CAN VOTE BY MAIL,
TELEPHONE, OR THROUGH THE INTERNET, AS EXPLAINED ON THE ENCLOSED PROXY CARD. By
voting promptly, you help the funds avoid the expense of additional mailings. If
you later decide to attend the meeting, you may revoke your proxy and vote your
shares in person if you wish.

If you would like additional information concerning the matters proposed for
action at the meeting, please call us at 1-800-225-5132. Remember, this is your
opportunity to voice your opinion on matters affecting the funds. YOUR
PARTICIPATION IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT.
