ARIZONA MUNICIPALS FUND INC. 

DEAR SHAREHOLDER: 

We are pleased to provide you with the annual report and portfolio of in- 
vestments for Smith Barney Arizona Municipals Fund Inc. for the fiscal 
year ended May 31, 1995. Although bond prices declined precipitously 
during the first part of the Fund's fiscal year, the municipal market im- 
proved substantially in late 1994 and into 1995, allowing the Fund to pro- 
vide investors in Class A shares with a total return of 9.38% and Class B 
shares with a total return of 8.78% for the twelve month period ended May 
31, 1995. Investors in Class C shares, a newly-available class of shares, 
earned a total return of 12.10% for the period between December 8, 1994 
and May 31, 1995. Additional performance data for each class of shares 
during this and previous reporting periods is available in the "Historical 
Performance" section of this report. 

ECONOMIC AND MARKET UPDATE 

After implementing tighter monetary policy by raising the Federal funds 
rate 300 basis points (three percentage points) over a 13-month period be- 
ginning in February 1994, the Federal Reserve Board has succeeded in slow- 
ing the rate of economic growth. Growth continued to slow during the sec- 
ond quarter of 1995 with the decline in consumption expenditures intensi- 
fying. The retail sector of the economy appears even softer and most 
retail chains seem to have little pricing power. Even the automobile in- 
dustry, which enjoyed a very strong 1994, has encountered weaker sales in 
1995. Individuals financed a large portion of their purchases with debt 
throughout 1994 and as a result individuals' debt levels are becoming a 
source of concern. This is acting as a drag on consumption expenditures 
and could continue to hamper consumption trends for the rest of 1995 as 
consumers try to bring their debt levels down to more manageable levels. 
The industrial side of the economy has benefited from strong overseas de- 
mand but this also appears to be moderating based upon recent economic 
statistics on industrial production. Although unemployment rates are rela- 
tively low, the corporate sector continues to trim costs and cut payrolls 
which could further reduce consumer spending. In summary, while we do not 
anticipate a recession, we believe an economic slowdown exists that will 
present more of a challenge to corporate profitability, especially in 
those sectors of the economy that depend on the consumer. 

                   D I V I D E N D  P O L I C Y 

Although not explicitly stated in the Prospectus, the Fund's policy is to 
pay a level monthly dividend based on the income generated by the Fund's 
portfolio holdings, our expectations regarding the municipal bond market 
and the general direction of interest rates. The Fund's investment deci- 
sions are guided by market conditions, and are not made with the intent of 
maintaining artificially high dividends. We continually monitor both the 
market and the Fund's income stream to ensure that our dividends approxi- 
mate the actual earnings of the Fund. 

After initially rising for most of 1994 as the Federal Reserve raised 
short-term interest rates, longer-term interest rates have declined since 
November as it has become apparent that the Federal Reserve is 
successfully slowing the rate of economic growth and keeping inflation 
under control. The municipal market had a spectacular rally during the 
first five months of 1995 -- clearly evident in the strong performance of 
the Fund's Class C shares. New bond issuance was at remarkably low levels 
nationally. A defining moment for the municipal market occurred when Or- 
ange County, California filed for bankruptcy in December of 1994 and cast 
a pall on the entire market. Its impact on the broader market since then 
has been minimal, but has strongly impacted the securities of the County 
itself. 

Arizona's economy continues to be strong as evidenced by the turnaround of 
Maricopa County. As you will recall, just one year ago Maricopa County 
suffered from a $67 million budget deficit. Through improved tax collec- 
tion and reduced spending, that deficit has been replaced by a small sur- 
plus. Bond issuance in Arizona has been extremely low and at some points 
during the past twelve months has been virtually nonexistent, contributing 
to increases in prices for the State's tax-exempt securities. 

Some uncertainties surround the market, however. Among these are the many 
flat tax proposals being championed by members of both political parties. 
Management believes real legislative action is several years away and must 
be revenue neutral to make any economic sense -- a very difficult balanc- 
ing act to accomplish. These discussions have caused periodic weakness in 
the municipal market during the past months and will no doubt continue to 
cause periodic weakness over the next few years, which may create some at- 
tractive investment opportunities. 

PORTFOLIO STRATEGY 

At the end of this fiscal year, approximately 96% of the Fund's portfolio 
was rated investment grade (BBB/Baa and higher), by either Standard & 
Poor's Corporation or Moody's Investors Service, Inc. The Fund invested 
its assets primarily in education, general obligation, housing, and indus- 
trial revenue bonds. This investment allocation is very similar to the one 
we reported to you in the Fund's semiannual report. The average maturity 
of the Fund was 19 years. 

We look forward to reporting to you in the Fund's next report to inves- 
tors. Should you have any questions about your investment in the Fund or 
how other Smith Barney mutual funds may be useful in helping you reach 
your financial goals, please speak with your Smith Barney Financial Con- 
sultant.

   ** All average annual total return figures shown reflect reinvestment

      menced operations on June 1, 1987. The Fund waived fees and/or reim- 
      bursed expenses from June 1, 1987 to May 31, 1995. A shareholder's 
      actual return for a given class for periods during which waivers 
      and/or reimbursements were in effect would be the greater of the two 
      numbers shown. 
  *** Average annual total return figures assume the deduction of the max- 
      imum 4.0% sales charge. 

      NOTE: On November 6, 1992, existing shares of the Fund were desig- 
      nated Class A shares. Class A shares are subject to a maximum 4.0% 
      front-end sales charge and a service fee of 0.15% of the value of 
      the average daily net assets attributable to that class. The Fund's 
      annual rates of return would have been lower had service fees been 
      in effect prior to November 6, 1992.

  LEHMAN MUNICIPAL BOND INDEX -- The Lehman Municipal Bond Index is an un- 
  managed, broad-based index which includes about 8,000 tax-free bonds and 
  reflects approximately $300 billion of market capitalization. 

  Index information is available at month-end only; therefore, the closest 
  month-end to inception date of the class has been used.

                       NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

Smith Barney Arizona Municipals Fund Inc. (formerly known as "Smith Barney 
Shearson Arizona Municipals Fund Inc.") (the "Fund") was incorporated 
under the laws of the State of Maryland on May 4, 1987. The Fund is a di- 
versified, open-end management investment company registered with the Se- 
curities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940, 
as amended (the "1940 Act"). Effective November 7, 1994, the Fund began 
offering Class C and Class Y shares and continued to offer Class A and 
Class B shares. As of May 31, 1995, no Class Y shares have been sold. 
Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales charge. Class B and Class C 
shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") upon 
redemption. Class B shares will convert automatically to Class A shares 
eight years after the date of original purchase. Class Y shares are avail- 
able to investors making an initial investment of at least $5 million and 
are not subject to any sales charges, service or distribution fees. All 
classes of shares have identical rights and privileges except with respect 
to the effect of the respective sales charges to each class, the distribu- 
tion and/or service fees borne by each class, expenses allocable exclu- 
sively to each class, voting rights on matters affecting a single class, 
the exchange privilege of each class and the conversion feature of Class B 
shares. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies con- 
sistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial state- 
ments. 

Portfolio valuation: Securities are valued by The Boston Company 
Advisors, Inc. ("Boston Advisors"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of 
Mellon Bank Corporation ("Mellon"), after consultation with an independent 
pricing service (the "Service") approved by the Fund's Board of Directors. 
Valuations furnished by the Service are based upon a computerized matrix 
system and/or appraisals based in each case upon such factors as yields or 
prices of municipal bonds of comparable quality, type or issue, coupon 
rate, maturity and rating, indications as to value from dealers, and gen- 
eral market conditions and quotations from recognized municipal securities 
dealers. The Fund's officers, under the general supervision of its Board 
of Directors, regularly review procedures used and valuations provided by 
the Service. Securities for which market quotations are readily available 
are valued at market value, which is the last reported sale price or, if 
no sales are reported on that day, at the mean between the latest avail- 
able bid and asked prices. Securities having 60 days or less remaining to 
maturity at the time of purchase are valued at their amortized cost, which 
approximates market value. 

Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions 
are recorded as of the trade date. Interest income is recorded on the ac- 
crual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded 
on the identified cost basis. Investment income and realized and unreal- 
ized gains and losses are allocated based upon relative net assets of each 
class. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery 
basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date. Interest income 
is not accrued until settlement date. 

Dividends and distributions to shareholders: It is the policy of the Fund 
to declare dividends from net investment income determined on a class 
level, daily, and to pay such dividends monthly. Distributions from net 
realized capital gains determined on a Fund basis are declared and paid 
annually, after the end of the fiscal year in which earned. In addition, 
in order to avoid the application of a 4.00% nondeductible excise tax on 
certain undistributed amounts of ordinary income and capital gains, the 
Fund may make an additional distribution shortly before December 31st of 
each year of undistributed ordinary income or capital gains and expects to 
make any other distributions as are necessary to avoid this tax. To the 
extent that net realized capital gains can be offset by capital loss car- 
ryovers, it is the policy of the Fund not to distribute such gains. Income 
distributions and capital gain distributions on a Fund level are deter- 
mined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from gen- 
erally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due 
to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securi- 
ties held by the Fund, timing differences and differing characterization 
of distributions made by the Fund as a whole. Permanent differences in- 
curred during the Fund's fiscal year resulting from distributions in ex- 
cess of net investment income and capital gains have been reclassified to 
paid-in-capital at year end. 

Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the Fund to qualify as a regu- 
lated investment company, which distributes exempt-interest dividends, by 
complying with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to 
regulated investment companies and by making all required distributions to 
its shareholders. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is required. 

2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE, ADMINISTRATION FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS 

The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory 
Agreement") with Smith Barney Mutual Funds Management Inc. ("SBMFM") (for- 
merly known as "Smith, Barney Advisers, Inc."). Under the Advisory Agree- 
ment, the Fund pays a monthly fee at the following annual rates: 0.35% of 
the value of the Fund's average daily net assets up to $500 million and 
0.32% of the value of the Fund's average daily net assets in excess of 
$500 million. 

The Fund has also entered into an administration agreement (the 
"Administration Agreement") with SBMFM. Under the Administration Agree- 
ment, the Fund pays SBMFM a monthly fee at the following annual rates: 
0.20% of the value of the Fund's average daily net assets up to $500 mil- 
lion and 0.18% of the value of the Fund's average daily net assets in 
excess of $500 million. 

The Fund and SBMFM have also entered into a sub-administration agreement 
(the "Sub-Administration Agreement") with Boston Advisors. Under the 
Sub-Administration Agreement, SBMFM pays Boston Advisors a portion of its 
administration fee at a rate agreed upon from time to time between SBMFM 
and Boston Advisors. 

From time to time, SBMFM may voluntarily waive a portion or all of the 
fees otherwise payable to it. For the year ended May 31, 1995, SBMFM vol- 
untarily waived advisory fees of $73,668 and administrative fees of 
$42,095. 

Smith Barney, Inc. ("Smith Barney") acts as exclusive distributor of the 
Fund's shares. For the year ended May 31, 1995, Smith Barney received from 
investors $50,874 representing commissions (sales charges) on sales of 
Class A shares. 

A CDSC is generally payable by a shareholder in connection with the re- 
demption of certain Class A, Class B and Class C shares. In circumstances 
in which the CDSC is imposed, the amount of the charge will vary depending 
on the number of years since the date of purchase. For the year ended May 
31, 1995, Smith Barney received from shareholders $99 and $29,071 in CDSC 
on the redemption of Class A and Class B shares, respectively. 

No officer, director or employee of Smith Barney or any of its affiliates 
receives any compensation from the Fund for serving as a Director or 
officer of the Fund. The Fund pays each Director who is not an officer, 
director, or employee of Smith Barney or any of its affiliates $1,000 per 
annum plus $100 per meeting attended and each Director emeritus who is not 
an officer, director or employee of Smith Barney or any of its affiliates 
$500 per annum plus $50 per meeting attended. The Fund reimburses each Di- 
rector for travel and out-of-pocket expenses incurred to attend such meet- 
ings. 

Boston Safe Deposit and Trust Company, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary 
of Mellon, serves as the Fund's custodian. The Shareholder Services Group, 
Inc., a subsidiary of First Data Corporation, serves as the Fund's trans- 
fer agent. 

3. DISTRIBUTION PLAN 

Smith Barney acts as distributor of the Fund's shares pursuant to a dis- 
tribution agreement with the Fund, and sells shares of the Fund through 
Smith Barney or its affiliates. 

Pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted a services 
and distribution plan (the "Plan"). Under this Plan, the Fund compensates

* The Fund commenced selling Class C shares on December 8, 1994. 
</TABLE>

As of May 31, 1995, no Class Y shares had been sold. 

7. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT 

The Fund primarily invests in debt obligations issued by the State of 
Arizona and its political subdivisions, agencies and public authorities to 
obtain funds for various public purposes. The Fund is more susceptible to 
factors adversely affecting issuers of Arizona municipal securities than 
is a municipal bond fund that is not concentrated in these issuers to the 
same extent. 

8. NOTES PAYABLE 

The Fund and several affiliated entities participate in a $50 million line 
of credit provided by Bank of America, N.A. (formerly known as Continental 
Bank N.A.) under an Amended and Restated Line of Credit Agreement (the 
"Agreement") dated April 30, 1992 and renewed effective May 31, 1994, pri- 
marily for temporary or emergency purposes, including the meeting of re- 
demption requests that otherwise might require the untimely disposition of 
securities. Under this Agreement the Fund may borrow up to the lesser of 
$25 million or 25% of its net assets. However, pursuant to the Fund's pro- 
spectus, the Fund may only borrow up to 10% of its total net assets. Under 
the terms of the Agreement, as amended, the Fund and the other affiliated 
entities are charged an aggregate commitment fee of $100,000 which is al- 
located equally among each of the participants. The Agreement requires, 
among other provisions, each participating fund to maintain a ratio of net 
assets (not including funds borrowed pursuant to the Agreement) to aggre- 
gate amount of indebtedness pursuant to the Agreement of no less than 5 to 
1. At May 31, 1995, the Fund had outstanding borrowings of $297,327 under 
this Agreement. During the year ended May 31, 1995, the Fund had an aver- 
age outstanding daily balance of $44,658 with interest rates ranging from 
5.125% to 6.625%. Interest expense totalled $2,728 for the year ended May 
31, 1995 and is offset against interest income on the Fund's Statement of 
Operations. 

9. CAPITAL LOSS CARRYFORWARD 

As of May 31, 1995, the Fund had available for Federal income tax purposes 
an unused capital loss carryforward of $103,472 expiring in the year 2003. 
In accordance with tax law, the Fund has elected to defer the recognition 
of losses occurring between October 31, 1994 and May 31, 1995 until the 
first day of the following fiscal year. The amount of such deferral is 
$142,711 of capital losses. These losses for tax purposes will be deemed 
to occur on June 1, 1995. 
 
                            INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT 

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS 
SMITH BARNEY ARIZONA MUNICIPALS FUND INC. 

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, in- 
cluding the portfolio of investments of Smith Barney Arizona Municipals 
Fund Inc. (formerly Smith Barney Shearson Arizona Municipals Fund Inc.) as 
of May 31, 1995, and the related statement of operations, statement of 
changes in net assets and financial highlights for Class A and Class B 
shares for the year then ended and the financial highlights for Class C 
shares for the period from December 8, 1994 to May 31, 1995. These finan- 
cial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the 
Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audit. The 
statement of changes in net assets for the year ended May 31, 1994 and the 
financial highlights for each of the years or periods in the eight-year 
period ended May 31, 1994 were audited by other auditors whose report 
thereon, dated July 13, 1994, expressed an unqualified opinion on that 
statement and those financial highlights. 

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and fi- 
nancial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes 
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclo- 
sures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of 
securities owned as of May 31, 1995 by correspondence with the custodian 
and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles 
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating 
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit 
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. 

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred 
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position 
of Smith Barney Arizona Municipals Fund Inc. as of May 31, 1995, and the 
results of its operations, changes in its net assets and financial high- 
lights for the year or period then ended as specified in the first para- 
graph above, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                GLOSSARY OF COMMONLY USED MUTUAL FUND TERMS 

CAPITAL GAIN (OR LOSS) This is the increase (or decrease) in the market 
value (price) of a security in your portfolio. If a stock or bond appreci- 
ates in price, there is a capital gain; if it depreciates, there is a cap- 
ital loss. A capital gain or loss is "realized" upon the sale of a secu- 
rity; if net capital gains exceed net capital losses, there may be a capi- 
tal gain distribution to shareholders. 

CDSC (CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE) One kind of back-end load, a CDSC 
is imposed if shares are redeemed during the first few years of ownership. 
The CDSC may be expressed as a percentage of either the original purchase 
price or the redemption proceeds. Most CDSCs decline over time, and some 
will not be charged if shares are redeemed after a certain period of time. 

DIVIDEND This is income generated by securities in a portfolio and dis- 
tributed after expenses to shareholders. 

FRONT-END SALES CHARGE This is the sales charge applied to an investment 
at the time of initial purchase. 

NET ASSET VALUE (NAV) Net Asset Value is the total market value of all 
securities held by a fund, minus any liabilities, divided by the number of 
shares outstanding. It is the value of a single share of a mutual fund on 
a given day. The total value of your investment would be the NAV multi- 
plied by the number of shares you own. 

DISTRIBUTION RATE This is the rate at which a mutual fund pays out (or 
distributes) interest, dividends and realized capital gains to sharehold- 
ers. A fund's distribution rate is usually expressed as an annualized per- 
cent of the fund's offering price. 

SEC YIELD This standardized calculation of a mutual fund's yield is based 
on a formula developed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to 
allow funds to be compared on an equal basis. It is an annualized yield 
based on the portfolio's potential earnings from dividends, interest and 
yield to maturity of its holdings, and it reflects the payments of all 
portfolio expenses for the most recent 30-day period. Mutual funds are re- 
quired to use this figure when stating yield. 

TOTAL RETURN Total return measures a fund's performance, taking into ac- 
count the combination of dividends paid and the gain or loss in the value 
of the securities held in the portfolio. It may be expressed on an average 
annual basis or cumulative basis (total change over a given period). In 
addition, total return may be expressed with or without the effects of 
sales charges or the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. 

Whenever a fund reports any type of performance, it must also report the 
average annual total return according to the standardized calculation de- 
veloped by the SEC. The SEC average annual total return calculation in- 
cludes the effects of all fees and sales charges and assumes the reinvest- 
ment of all dividends and capital gains.
