                                 INTRODUCTION

   This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of
proxies on behalf of the respective Boards of Directors of AllianceBernstein
Income Fund, Inc. ("ABIF"), AllianceBernstein Global High Income Fund, Inc.
("AGHIF"), ACM Managed Dollar Income Fund, Inc. ("ACM VIII"), AllianceBernstein
National Municipal Income Fund, Inc. ("ANMIF"), Alliance California Municipal
Income Fund, Inc. ("ACMIF") and Alliance New York Municipal Income Fund, Inc.
("ANYMIF"), each of which is a Maryland corporation (individually, a "Fund" and
collectively, the "Funds"), to be voted at a Joint Annual Meeting of
Stockholders of the Funds (the "Meeting"), to be held at the offices of the
Funds, 1345 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10105, on March 28, 2008
at 3:30 p.m., Eastern Time. The solicitation will be by mail and the cost for
each Fund will be borne by that Fund. The Notice of Meeting, Proxy Statement
and Proxy Card are being mailed to stockholders on or about February 21, 2008.

   Any stockholder who owned shares of ABIF, AGHIF, ACM VIII, ANMIF, ACMIF and
ANYMIF on February 8, 2008 (the "Record Date") is entitled to notice of, and to
vote at, the Meeting and any postponement or adjournment thereof. Each share is
entitled to one vote.

                                      1



                                 PROPOSAL ONE
                             ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

   At the Meeting, four Directors of each Fund will be elected to serve for
terms of either one or three years and, in each case, until his successor is
elected and qualifies. The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by
a Fund's stockholders is required to elect a Director. It is the intention of
the persons named in the enclosed proxy to nominate and vote in favor of the
election of each of the nominees.

   At the Meeting, the holders of each series of preferred stock of ANMIF,
ACMIF and ANYMIF (the "Preferred Stockholders") will have equal voting rights
with the holders of the common stock of ANMIF, ACMIF and ANYMIF (i.e., one vote
per share), respectively, and will vote together with the holders of the common
stock as a single class on proposals that may be properly presented at the
Meeting applicable to their respective Funds, as described below. The Preferred
Stockholders, voting separately as a class, have the right to elect two
Directors of their Fund ("Preferred Directors"). The Preferred Directors are
John H. Dobkin and Michael J. Downey and each are members of Class One. While
the Preferred Stockholders have the right to elect the Preferred Directors,
they are not standing for election at the Meeting because the terms of the
Class One Directors do not expire until 2010.

   Under the Funds' respective Charters and Bylaws, the Board of Directors of
each Fund has been divided into three classes. For all of the Funds, the terms
of Class Two Directors will expire as of the Meeting, the terms of Class Three
Directors will expire as of the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in
2009 and the terms of Class One Directors will expire as of the annual meeting
of stockholders to be held in 2010. Upon expiration of the terms of the
Directors of each class as set forth above, the terms of their successors in
that class will continue until the end of their terms and until their
successors are duly elected and qualify.

   Under this classified Board structure, only those Directors in a single
class are required to be elected at the annual meeting of stockholders. It
would require two years of annual meeting elections to change a majority of the
Board of Directors of a Fund, although Maryland law provides that stockholders
may remove Directors under certain circumstances even if they are not then
standing for re-election. This classified Board structure, which may be
regarded as an "anti-takeover" provision, may make it more difficult for a
Fund's stockholders to change the majority of Directors of the Fund and, thus,
have the effect of maintaining the continuity of management.

   Effective February 1, 2008, the Board of Directors of each Fund elected
Garry L. Moody in Class Three of each Fund. Mr. Moody will stand for election
at the Meeting for each of the Funds.

   At the Meeting, William H. Foulk and D. James Guzy are standing for election
in Class Two of each Fund; David H. Dievler is standing for election in Class

                                      2



Two of ABIF, ANMIF, ACMIF and ANYMIF; John H. Dobkin is standing for election
in Class Two of AGHIF and ACM VIII; and Mr. Moody is standing for election in
Class Three of each Fund. Each nominee has consented to serve as a Director.
The Boards of Directors know of no reason why any of the nominees for the
Boards of Directors will be unable to serve, but in the event any nominee is
unable to serve or for good cause will not serve, the proxies received
indicating a vote in favor of such nominee will be voted for such substitute
nominees as the Boards of Directors may recommend.

   Certain information concerning the Funds' Directors is set forth below.

of AGHIF, 11 times; of ACM VIII, 14 times; of ANMIF, 13 times; of ACMIF,
12 times and of ANYMIF, 12 times. The Funds do not have a policy that requires
a Director to attend annual meetings of stockholders.

                                      8



   Each Fund's Board has four standing committees: an Audit Committee, a
Governance and Nominating Committee, an Independent Directors Committee, and a
Fair Value Pricing Committee. The members of the Committees are identified
above in the table listing the Directors. The function of the Audit Committee
of each Fund is to assist the Board in its oversight of a Fund's financial
reporting process. The members of the Audit Committee are "independent" as
required by applicable listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange
("NYSE"). During the Funds' fiscal year ended in 2007, the Audit Committee of
ABIF met 7 times; of AGHIF, 9 times; of ACM VIII, 9 times; of ANMIF, 6 times;
of ACMIF, 6 times; and of ANYMIF, 6 times. During the Funds' fiscal year ended
in 2007, the Governance and Nominating Committee of ABIF met 6 times; of AGHIF,
7 times; of ACM VIII, 6 times; of ANMIF, 6 times; of ACMIF, 6 times; and of
ANYMIF, 6 times.

   Each Fund's Board of Directors has adopted a charter for its Governance and
Nominating Committee, a copy of which may be found on the Adviser's website,
http://www.alliancebernstein.com (click on US Investors & Financial
Advisors/Investment Products/Mutual Funds/Closed-End). Pursuant to the charter
of the Governance and Nominating Committee, the Governance and Nominating
Committee assists each Board in carrying out its responsibilities with respect
to governance of a Fund and identifies, evaluates and selects and nominates
candidates for that Board. The Committee also may set standards or
qualifications for Directors. The Committee may consider candidates as
Directors submitted by a Fund's current Board members, officers, the Adviser,
stockholders and other appropriate sources.

   The Governance and Nominating Committee will consider candidates submitted
by a stockholder or group of stockholders who have owned at least 5% of the
Fund's outstanding common stock for at least two years at the time of
submission and who timely provide specified information about the candidates
and the nominating stockholder or group. To be timely for consideration by the
Committee, the submission, including all required information, must be
submitted in writing to the attention of the Secretary at the principal
executive offices of a Fund not less than 120 days before the date of the proxy
statement for the previous year's annual meeting of stockholders. The Committee
will consider only one candidate submitted by such a stockholder or group for
nomination for election at an annual meeting of stockholders. The Committee
will not consider self-nominated candidates.

   The Governance and Nominating Committee will consider and evaluate
candidates submitted by stockholders on the basis of the same criteria as those
used to consider and evaluate candidates submitted from other sources. These
criteria include the candidate's relevant knowledge, experience, and expertise,
the candidate's ability to carry out his or her duties in the best interests of
the Fund and the candidate's ability to qualify as a disinterested Director.

                                      9



   The function of each Fund's Fair Value Pricing Committee is to consider, in
advance if possible, any fair valuation decision of the Adviser's Valuation
Committee relating to a security held by a Fund made under unique or highly
unusual circumstances not previously addressed by the Valuation Committee that
would result in a change in the Fund's net asset value ("NAV") by more than
$0.01 per share. The Fair Value Pricing Committee did not meet during any
Fund's most recently completed fiscal year.

   The function of each Fund's Independent Directors Committee is to consider
and take action on matters that the Board or Committee believes should be
addressed in executive session of the disinterested Directors, such as review
and approval of the Advisory and Stockholder Inquiry Agency Agreements. During
the Funds' fiscal year ended in 2007, the Independent Directors Committee of
ABIF met 6 times; of AGHIF, 7 times; of ACM VIII, 6 times; of ANMIF, 7 times;
of ACMIF, 7 times; and of ANYMIF, 7 times.

   Each Board has adopted a process for stockholders to send communications to
the Board of their Fund. To communicate with a Board or an individual Director
of a Fund, a stockholder must send a written communication to that Fund's
principal office at the address listed in the Notice of Joint Annual Meeting of
Stockholders accompanying this Proxy Statement, addressed to the Board of that
Fund or the individual Director. All stockholder communications received in
accordance with this process will be forwarded to the Board or the individual
Director to whom or to which the communication is addressed.

                                      10



   None of the Funds pays any fees to, or reimburses expenses of, any Director
during a time when the Director is considered an "interested person" of the
Fund. The aggregate compensation paid by the Funds to the Directors during the
Funds' respective fiscal years ended in 2007, the aggregate compensation paid
to the Directors during calendar year 2007 by all of the investment companies
in the AllianceBernstein Fund Complex, and the total number of investment
companies in the AllianceBernstein Fund Complex as to which the Directors are a
director or trustee and the number of investment portfolios as to which the
Directors are directors or trustees, are set forth below. Neither the Funds nor
any other investment company in the AllianceBernstein Fund Complex provides
compensation in the form of pension or retirement benefits to any of its
directors or trustees.

*  Mr. Moody became a Director of each Fund effective February 1, 2008.

                                      12



   Each Board unanimously recommends that the stockholders vote FOR each of the
nominees to serve as a Director of the applicable Fund. Approval of Proposal
One with respect to each Fund requires the affirmative vote of a majority of
the votes entitled to be cast.

                     PROXY VOTING and STOCKHOLDER MEETING

   All properly executed and timely received proxies will be voted at the
Meeting in accordance with the instructions marked thereon or as otherwise
provided therein. Accordingly, unless instructions to the contrary are marked,
proxies from the holders of the common stock will be voted for the election of
four Directors of each Fund. Any stockholder may revoke that stockholder's
proxy at any time prior to exercise thereof by giving written notice to the
Secretary of the Funds at 1345 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York
10105, by signing and delivering to the Secretary another proxy of a later date
or by voting in person at the Meeting.

   Properly executed proxies may be returned with instructions to abstain from
voting or to withhold authority to vote (an "abstention"). The approval of the
Proposal with respect to each Fund requires an affirmative vote of the holders
of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast. An abstention will be
considered present for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum but
will have the effect of a vote against the Proposal. If any proposal, other
than Proposal One, properly comes before the Meeting, shares represented by
proxies will be voted on all such proposals in the discretion of the person or
persons holding the proxies.

   The Meeting is scheduled as a joint meeting of the stockholders of the Funds
because the stockholders of all the Funds are to consider and vote on the
election of Directors. Stockholders of each Fund will vote separately on the
election of Directors for that Fund and on any other matter that may properly
come before the Meeting for a Fund. An unfavorable vote by the stockholders of
one Fund will not affect the vote on the election of Directors or any other
matter by the stockholders of another Fund.

   A quorum for each Fund for the Meeting will consist of the presence in
person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the total outstanding shares
of common stock, and preferred stock, if any, of the particular Fund. In the
event that a quorum is not present at the Meeting for a Fund or, even if a
quorum is so present, in the event that sufficient votes in favor of the
positions recommended by the Board of Directors on the proposal described in
the Proxy Statement with respect to a Fund are not timely received, the persons
named as proxies may propose and vote for one or more adjournments of the
Meeting with respect to that Fund, with no other notice than announcement at
the Meeting, in order to permit further solicitation of proxies. Shares
represented by proxies indicating a vote contrary to the position recommended
by the Board of Directors on any proposal as to which the Meeting is proposed
to be adjourned will be voted against adjournment of the Meeting.

                                      13



   Each Fund has engaged The Altman Group, 60 East 42nd Street, Suite 405, New
York, NY 10165, to assist in soliciting proxies for the Meeting. The Altman
Group will receive a total fee of approximately $5,400 for its services, to be
paid by the Funds as follows: ABIF--$900, AGHIF--$900, ACM VIII--$900,
ANMIF--$900, ACMIF--$900 and ANYMIF--$900, plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket
expenses.

Audit Committee Report

   The following Audit Committee Report was adopted by the Audit Committee of
each Fund.

   The Audit Committee operates pursuant to a written charter, a copy of which
may be found on the Adviser's website, http//www.alliancebernstein.com (click on

                                      16



US Investors & Financial Advisors/Investment Products/Mutual Funds/Closed-End).
The purposes of the Audit Committee are to (1) assist the Board of Directors in
its oversight of (i) the integrity of the Fund's financial statements and the
independent audit thereof; (ii) the Fund's compliance with legal and regulatory
requirements; (iii) the independent registered public accounting firm's
independence, qualifications and performance; and (iv) the Fund's compliance
with applicable laws by receiving reports from counsel who believe they have
credible evidence of a material violation of law by the Fund or by someone
owing a fiduciary or other duty to the Fund; and (2) to prepare this report. As
set forth in the Audit Committee Charter, management of the Fund is responsible
for the preparation, presentation and integrity of the Fund's financial
statements, the Fund's accounting and financial reporting principles and
internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting
standards and applicable laws and regulations. The independent registered
public accounting firm is responsible for auditing the Fund's financial
statements and expressing an opinion as to their conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

   In the performance of its oversight function, the Audit Committee has
considered and discussed the audited financial statements with management and
the independent registered public accounting firm of the Fund. The Audit
Committee has also discussed with the independent registered public accounting
firm the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards
No. 61, Communication with Audit Committees, as currently in effect. The Audit
Committee has also considered whether the provision of any non-audit services
not pre-approved by the Audit Committee provided by the Fund's independent
registered public accounting firm to the Adviser and to any entity controlling,
controlled by or under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing
services to the Fund is compatible with maintaining the independent registered
public accounting firm's independence. Finally, the Audit Committee has
received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered
public accounting firm required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1,
Independence Discussions with Audit Committees, as currently in effect, and has
discussed the independent registered public accounting firm's independence with
such firm.

   The members of the Fund's Audit Committee are not full-time employees of the
Fund and are not performing the functions of auditors or accountants. As such,
it is not the duty or responsibility of the Audit Committee or its members to
conduct "field work" or other types of auditing or accounting reviews or
procedures or to set auditor independence standards. Members of the Audit
Committee necessarily rely on the information provided to them by management
and the independent registered public accounting firm. Accordingly, the Audit
Committee's considerations and discussions referred to above do not assure that
the audit of the Fund's financial statements has been carried out in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards, that the financial statements are
presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or that
the Fund's independent registered public accounting firm is in fact
"independent".

                                      17



   Based upon the reports and discussions described in this report, and subject
to the limitations on the role and responsibilities of the Audit Committee
referred to above and in the Audit Committee Charter, the Audit Committee
recommended to the Board of Directors of the Fund that the audited financial
statements of the Fund be included in the Fund's annual report to stockholders
for the most recent fiscal year.

   Submitted by the Audit Committee of each Fund's Board of Directors:

              David H. Dievler          Nancy P. Jacklin
              John H. Dobkin            Garry L. Moody*
              Michael J. Downey         Marshall C. Turner, Jr.
              William H. Foulk, Jr.     Earl D. Weiner
              D. James Guzy
--------
*  In respect of ABIF only, as Mr. Moody was not a member of the Audit
   Committees of AGHIF, ACM VIII, ANMIF, ACMIF or ANYMIF at the time such Audit
   Committees recommended the inclusion of the Fund's annual financial
   statements in the stockholders reports for the most recent fiscal years.

Approval of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firms by Boards

   The Audit Committee of each Fund is responsible for the appointment,
compensation, retention and oversight of the work of the Fund's independent
registered public accounting firm. In addition, the Board of each Fund approved
the independent registered public accounting firm of each Fund as required by
the Act on the date specified below. The Boards of Directors of each of the
Funds at meetings held on July 31, 2007-August 2, 2007 (ACM VIII), February
6-8, 2007 (AGHIF), October 30, 2007-November 1, 2007 (ABIF, ANMIF, ACMIF and
ANYMIF), respectively, approved by the vote, cast in person, of a majority of
the Directors of each Fund, including a majority of the Directors who are not
"interested persons" of each Fund, Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered
public accounting firm to audit the accounts of AGHIF (for the fiscal year
ending March 31, 2008), ACM VIII (September 30, 2008), ANMIF (October 31,
2008), ACMIF (October 31, 2008), ANYMIF (October 31, 2008) and ABIF (December
31, 2008).

   Ernst & Young LLP has audited the accounts of ABIF, AGHIF, ACM VIII, ANMIF,
ACMIF and ANYMIF since the respective dates of the commencement of each of the
Fund's operations, and has represented that it does not have any direct
financial interest or any material indirect financial interest in any of the
Funds. Representatives of Ernst & Young LLP are expected to attend the Meeting,
to have the opportunity to make a statement and to respond to appropriate
questions from the stockholders.

   Beginning with audit and non-audit service contracts entered into on or
after May 6, 2003, the Funds' Audit Committee policies and procedures require
the pre-approval of all audit and non-audit services provided to a Fund by the
Fund's independent registered public accounting firm. A Fund's Audit Committee
policies and procedures also require pre-approval of all audit and non-audit
services provided to the Adviser and Service Affiliates to the extent that
these services are directly related to the operations or financial reporting of
the Fund. Accordingly, all of the amounts in the table for Audit Fees,
Audit-Related Fees and Tax Fees for 2007 are for services pre-approved by each
Fund's Audit Committee. The amounts of the Fees for Non-Audit Services provided
to the Fund, the Adviser and Service Affiliates in the table for each Fund that
were subject to pre-approval by the Audit Committee for 2007 were ABIF,
$181,283 (comprising $161,408 of audit related fees and $19,875 of tax fees);
AGHIF, $158,704 (comprising $138,754 of audit related fees and $19,950 of tax
fees); ACM VIII, $25,835 (comprising $5,960 of audit related fees and $19,875
of tax fees); ANMIF, $149,165 (comprising $136,290 of audit related fees and
$12,875 of tax fees); ACMIF, $148,156 (comprising $135,281 of audit related
fees and $12,875 of tax fees); and ANYMIF, $148,156 (comprising $135,281 of
audit related fees and $12,875 of tax fees). The Audit Committee of each Fund
has considered whether the provision of any non-audit services not pre-approved
by the Audit Committee provided by the Fund's independent registered public
accounting firm to the Adviser and Service Affiliates is compatible with
maintaining the independent registered public accounting firm's independence.

                   INFORMATION AS TO THE INVESTMENT ADVISER
                      AND THE ADMINISTRATORS OF THE FUNDS

   Each Fund's investment adviser is AllianceBernstein L.P., 1345 Avenue of the
Americas, New York, New York 10105. The administrator for each of ACM VIII,
ABIF, AGHIF, ANMIF, ACMIF and ANYMIF is the Adviser.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

   Section 30(h) of the Act and the rules under Section 16 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 require that the Directors and officers of each Fund,
among others, file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC")
initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of shares of
the Funds. During the fiscal year ended 2007 for ABIF, ACM VIII, ANMIF, ACMIF
and ANYMIF, a statement of initial beneficial ownership of securities on Form 3
was inadvertently filed late by the Adviser on behalf of Earl D. Weiner, a
director of ABIF, AGHIF, ACM VIII, ANMIF, ACMIF and ANYMIF. For ABIF, ACM VIII,
ANMIF and ACMIF, the reports related to the election of Mr. Weiner as a
director for each fund. For ANYMIF, the report related to beneficial ownership
of 347 shares of common stock, beneficially owned by Mr. Weiner.

                                      20

   Proposals of stockholders intended to be presented at the next annual
meeting of stockholders of a Fund must be received by the Fund by October 24,
2008 for inclusion in the Fund's proxy statement and proxy card relating to
that meeting. The submission by a stockholder of a proposal for inclusion in
the proxy statement does not guarantee that it will be included. In addition,
stockholder proposals are subject to certain requirements under the federal
securities laws and the Maryland General Corporation Law and must be submitted
in accordance with each Fund's Bylaws. To be presented at the 2009 Annual
Meeting of Stockholders, a stockholder proposal that is not otherwise
includable in the Proxy Statement for the 2009 Annual Meeting must be delivered
by a stockholder of record to the Fund no sooner than September 24, 2008 and no
later than October 24, 2008.

   The persons named as proxies for the 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders
will, with respect to the proxies in effect at the meeting, have discretionary
authority to vote on any matter presented by a stockholder for action at that
meeting unless the Fund receives notice of the matter no sooner than September
24, 2008 and no later than October 24, 2008. If a Fund receives such timely
notice, these persons will not have this authority except as provided in the
applicable rules of the SEC.

                                      21

one name appears, a majority must sign. If a corporation, the signature should
be that of an authorized officer who should state his or her title.
