SMITH BARNEY INCOME FUNDS
Smith Barney Diversified Strategic Income Fund
Smith Barney High Income Fund  

Supplement dated July 8, 1998 to 
Prospectuses dated November 28, 1997


The following information supplements the information in the 
Prospectus under "Investment Objectives and Management Policies."

	Real Estate Investment Trusts.  The Fund may purchase Real 
Estate Investment Trusts ("REITs").  REITs are investment 
vehicles that invest primarily in either real estate or real 
estate loans.  The value of a REIT is affected by changes in the 
value of the properties owned by the REIT or securing mortgage 
loans held by the REIT.  REITs are dependent upon cash flow from 
their investments to repay financing costs and the ability of the 
REIT's manager.  REITs are also subject to risks generally 
associated with investments in real estate.

	Asset-Backed Securities.  The Fund may invest in Asset 
Backed Securities ("ABSs"). An ABS security represents an 
interest in a pool of assets such as receivables from credit card 
loans, automobile loans and other trade receivables.  Changes in 
the market's perception of the asset backing the security, the 
creditworthiness of the servicing agent for the loan pool, the 
originator of the loans, or the financial institution providing 
any credit enhancement will all affect the value of the ABS, as 
will the exhaustion of any credit enhancement.  The risks of 
investing in ABSs ultimately will depend upon the payment of the 
consumer loans by the individual borrowers.  In its capacity as 
purchaser of the ABS, the Fund will generally have no recourse to 
the entity that originated the loans in the event of default by 
the borrower.  In addition, the loans underlying the ABSs are 
subject to prepayments, which may shorten the weighted average 
life of such securities and may lower their return.
