Municipal High Income Fund Inc.
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to provide the semi-annual report for the Municipal High
Income Fund Inc. for the period ended April 30, 1997. Over the six-month period
covered by this report, the Fund paid dividends totaling $0.311 per share and
posted a total return of 3.17% on net asset value (NAV). This compares favorably
with its Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. peer group average of 2.95% for the
same period. (Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. is an independent fund tracking
organization.) In addition, the Fund generated a total return of 6.25% based on
its market value. The table below shows the annualized distribution rates based
on the Fund's April 30, 1997 NAV and its New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) closing
price.

Market and Economic Overview
During the past six months, the U.S. economy has continued to grow
steadily. Although the U.S. unemployment rate is near a thirty-year low and
consumer confidence is the highest it has been in over twenty years, there has
not been a substantial increase in inflationary pressures. Nevertheless, a
steady stream of strong economic reports prompted the Federal Reserve Board
("Fed") to raise the federal funds rate by 25 basis points, or 0.25%, in late
March of this year. (The federal funds rate is the interest rate banks charge
each other for overnight loans and a closely watched indicator of the direction
of interest rates.) The Fed has indicated that it prefers to head off any
possible increase in inflation with a preemptive action rather than wait for any
inflationary pressures to build.
While the Fed action was widely anticipated, the likelihood of a rise in
interest rates added to the significant market volatility that occurred during
this reporting period. The potential tightening of Fed monetary policy raised
investor concerns over the U.S. equity market's ability to sustain the now
seven-year bull market. In our opinion, higher equity market volatility, along
with continued speculation on Fed monetary policy, led many investors to
gravitate toward the relative safety of the bond market.
Traditionally, the tax-exempt bond market has been heavily influenced by
institutional investors such as property and casualty insurance companies. These
investors have tended to buy high-grade, intermediate-maturity bonds. Recently,
the municipal bond market has become
1
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<PAGE>
- ----------------------------------- [STAR] -----------------------------------
increasingly driven by individual investors who either purchase the bonds
directly or through managed products such as mutual funds. Individual investors
have tended to seek out the longer-maturity, higher-yielding bonds such as the
ones in which the Municipal High Income Fund normally invests. We believe this
shift in tax-exempt investor emphasis has particularly benefited the high-yield
municipal bond market.
Investment Strategy
The Municipal High Income Fund's investment objective is to provide high
levels of tax-exempt current income as consistent with prudent management. In
pursuit of this objective, the Fund continues to focus on higher coupon bonds in
order to maintain an attractive level of dividend income. In addition, we expect
to modestly extend the Fund's call protection during the remainder of 1997.
During the past six months, we have maintained a broad diversification
across a number of investment sectors that we believe offer high yield potential
as well as relative price stability. Going forward, we plan on favoring the
housing sector because we believe it provides attractive yield potential without
significant risk of prepayment given the current interest rate levels. Moreover,
we also favor the airline sector which we believe will benefit from the
continued growth in the U.S. economy. As of April 30, 1997, the majority of the
Fund's assets were allocated among the following sectors: industrial revenue
bonds (25.3%), pollution control bonds (15.6%) and hospital bonds (11.8%).
Municipal Bond Outlook
We expect the U.S. economy to continue along its present path of strong
growth with relatively low inflation. However, the Fed has indicated that they
are prepared to raise interest rates further should the U.S. economy begin to
grow too rapidly. In our view, with little movement on the federal budget before
Congress and no imminent action to adjust the consumer price index (CPI), we
expect that the benchmark 30 year U.S. Treasury bond should remain in its
current trading range of 6.80% to 7.00% in the coming months. Consequently, the
other sectors of the fixed income market should remain range-bound as well.
Moreover, new bond issuance has been down approximately 10% so far this year and
we expect more municipal debt to be retired later this summer. In our opinion,
our expectations for increased demand for tax-exempt bonds combined with light
supply, should help to support municipal bond prices.

Bond Ratings
================================================================================
All ratings are by Standard & Poor's Rating Service ("Standard & Poor's"),
except that those identified by an asterisk (*) are rated by Moody's Investors
Service, Inc. ("Moody's"). The definitions of the applicable rating symbols are
set forth below:
Standard & Poor's -- Ratings from "AA" to "CCC" may be modified by the addition
of a plus (+) or a minus (-) sign to show relative standings within the major
rating categories.
AAA -- Bonds rated "AAA" have the highest rating assigned by Standard &
Poor's. Capacity to pay interest and repay principal is extremely
strong.
AA -- Bonds rated "AA" have a very strong capacity to pay interest and
repay principal and differs from the highest rated issue only in a
small degree.
A -- Bonds rated "A" have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay
principal although it is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse
effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than
debt in higher rated categories.
BBB -- Bonds rated "BBB" are regarded as having an adequate capacity to
pay interest and repay principal. Whereas they normally exhibit
adequate protection parameters, adverse economic conditions or
changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened
capacity to pay interest and repay principal for debt in this
category than in higher rated categories.
BB, B -- Bonds rated "BB" and "B" are regarded, on balance, as
and CCC predominantly and CCC speculative with respect to capacity to pay
interest and repay principal in accordance with the terms of the
obligation. "BB" represents a lower degree of speculation than "B,"
and "CCC" the highest degree of speculation. While such bonds will
likely have some quality and protective characteristics, these are
outweighted by large uncertainties or major risk exposure to
adverse conditions.

<PAGE>
Municipal High Income Fund Inc.
[STAR] Bond Ratings (continued)
================================================================================
Moody's -- Numerical modifiers 1, 2 and 3 may be applied to each generic
rating from "Aa" to "Ba," where 1 is the highest and 3 the lowest
rating within its generic category.
Aaa -- Bonds that are rated "Aaa" are judged to be of the best quality.
They carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally
referred to as "gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a
large or by an exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure.
While the various protective elements are likely to change, such
changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to impair the
fundamentally strong position of such issues.
Aa -- Bonds that are rated "Aa" are judged to be of high quality by
all standards. Together with the "Aaa" group they comprise what are
generally known as high grade bonds. They are rated lower than the
best bonds because margins of protection may not be as large in
"Aaa" securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be of
greater amplitude or there may be other elements present which make
the long-term risks appear somewhat larger than in "Aaa"
securities.
A -- Bonds that are rated "A" possess many favorable investment
attributes and are to be considered as upper medium grade
obligations. Factors giving security to principal and interest are
considered adequate but elements may be present which suggest a
susceptibility to impairment some time in the future.
Baa -- Bonds that are rated "Baa" are considered as medium grade
obligations, i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly
secured. Interest payments and principal security appear adequate
for the present but certain protective elements may be lacking or
may be characteristically unreliable over any great length of time.
Such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in fact
have speculative characteristics as well.
Ba -- Bonds that are rated "Ba" are judged to have speculative
elements; their future cannot be considered as well assured. Often
the protection of interest and principal payments may be very
moderate thereby not well safeguarded during both good and bad
times over the future. Uncertainty of position characterizes bonds
in this class.
NR -- Indicates that the bond is not rated by Standard & Poor's or
Moody's.

===============================================================================
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Municipal High Income Fund Inc. ("Fund"), a Maryland corporation, is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a
diversified, closed-end management investment company.
The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund are:
(a) security transactions are accounted for on trade date; (b) securities are
valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices provided by an independent
pricing service; (c) securities maturing within 60 days are valued at cost plus
accreted discount, or minus amortized premium, which approximates value; (d)
gains or losses on the sale of securities are calculated by using the specific
identification method; (e) interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium
and accretion of original issue discount, is recorded on an accrual basis; (f)
dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend
date; (g) the Fund intends to comply with the applicable provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, pertaining to regulated investment
companies and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it
from substantially all Federal income and excise taxes; and (h) estimates and
assumptions are required to be made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in
net assets resulting from operations when financial statements are prepared.
Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters
used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ.
2. Exempt-Interest Dividends and Other Distributions
The Fund intends to satisfy conditions that will enable interest from
municipal securities, which is exempt from Federal income tax and from
designated state income taxes, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed
to the shareholders of the Fund.
Capital gains distributions, if any, are taxable to shareholders, and are
declared and paid at least annually.
3. Investment Advisory Agreement, Administration Agreement and Other
Transactions
Smith Barney Mutual Funds Management Inc. ("SBMFM"), a subsidiary of Smith
Barney Holdings Inc. ("SBH"), through its Greenwich Street Advisors division,
acts as investment adviser to the Fund. The Fund pays SBMFM an advisory fee
calculated at an annual rate of 0.40% of the average daily net assets. SBMFM
also acts as the administrator of the Fund for which it receives a fee
calculated at an annual rate of 0.20% of the average daily net assets. These
fees are calculated daily and paid monthly.

have all distributions reinvested automatically by the First Data Investor
Services Group, Inc. ("First Data") as agent under the Plan, unless the
shareholder elects to receive cash. Distributions with respect to shares
registered in the name of a broker-dealer or other nominee (that is, in "street
name") will be reinvested by the broker or nominee in additional Common Stock
under the Plan, but only if the service is provided by the broker or nominee,
and the broker or nominee makes an election on behalf of the shareholder to
participate in the Plan. Distributions with respect to Common Stock registered
in the name of Smith Barney will automatically be reinvested by Smith Barney in
additional shares under the Plan unless the shareholder elects to receive
distributions in cash. A shareholder who holds Common Stock registered in the
name of a broker or other nominee may not be able to transfer the Common Stock
to another broker or nominee and continue to participate in the Plan. Investors
who own Common Stock registered in street name should consult their broker or
nominee for details regarding reinvestment.
The number of shares of Common Stock distributed to participants in the
Plan in lieu of a cash dividend is determined in the following manner. Whenever
the market price of the Fund's Common Stock is equal to or exceeds 98% of net
asset value per share at the time shares are valued for determining the number
of shares equivalent to the cash dividend or capital gains distribution,
participants will be issued shares of Common Stock valued at the greater of (i)
98% of net asset value per share or (ii) 95% of the then current market price.
If 98% of the net asset value per share of Common Stock at the time of valuation
exceeds the market price of the Common Stock, First Data will buy shares of the
Fund's Common Stock on the open market, on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. or
elsewhere, as soon as practicable after the record date of the dividend or
distribution, until it has expended for such purchases all of the cash that
would otherwise be payable to the participants. The number of purchased shares
that will then be credited to the participants' accounts will be based on the
average per share purchase price of the shares so purchased, including brokerage
commissions. If First Data commences purchases in the open market and the market
price of the shares subsequently exceeds 98% of their net asset value before the
completion of the purchases, First Data will attempt to terminate purchases in
the open market and cause the Fund to issue the remaining dividend or
distribution in shares at 98% of the net asset value per share. In this case,
the number of shares of Common Stock received by the participant will be based
on the weighted average of prices paid for shares purchased in the open market
and the price at which the Fund issues the remaining shares.
Plan participants are not subject to any charge for reinvesting dividends
or capital gains distributions. Each participant will, however, bear a
proportionate share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to First
Data's open market purchases of shares of Common Stock in connection with the
reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions.

Municipal High Income Fund Inc.
[STAR] Dividend Reinvestment Plan (unaudited) (continued)
================================================================================
The automatic reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions
will not relieve Plan participants of any income tax that may be payable on the
dividends or capital gains distributions. A participant in the Plan will be
treated for federal income tax purposes as having received, on the dividend
payment date, a dividend or distribution in an amount equal to the cash that the
participant could have received instead of shares of Common Stock.
A shareholder may terminate participation in the Plan at any time by
notifying First Data in writing. A termination will be effective immediately if
notice is received by First Data not less than 10 days before any dividend or
distribution record date. Otherwise, the termination will be effective, and only
with respect to any subsequent dividends or distributions, on the first trading
day after the dividend or distribution has been credited to the participant's
account in additional shares of Common Stock of the Fund. Upon termination
according to a participant's instructions, First Data will either (a) issue
certificates for the whole shares credited to a Plan account and a check
representing any fractional shares or (b) sell the shares in the market. There
will be a $5.00 fee assessed for liquidation service, plus brokerage
commissions, and First Data is authorized to sell a sufficient number of a
participant's shares to cover such amounts.
A current prospectus may be obtained by contacting a Smith Barney Financial
Consultant. Information concerning the Plan may be obtained from First Data at
(800) 331-1710.
