Re:  Rule 24f-2 Notice for Fiscal Year
     Ended July 31, 1997
     SEC File No. 811-8576  33-80630
 
 
Ladies and Gentlemen:
 
     You have asked us to render an opinion to American High-Income Municipal
Bond Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") as to the matters described in Rule 24f-2(b)(1)
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act"), which opinion you are
required to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission")
together with a Rule 24f-2 Notice for the fiscal year ended July 31, 1997 (the
"Notice").
 
     With respect to factual matters in this opinion, we have relied upon the
accuracy of the representations made to us by the Secretary and Treasurer of
the Fund in certificates executed by each of them and have not independently
verified the accuracy of such factual information.  We have also examined
originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction as
being true copies, of those records of the Fund, certificates of public
officials, and other documents and matters as we have deemed necessary for the
purpose of this opinion.  We have assumed without independent investigation or
verification the authenticity of the documents submitted to us as originals and
the conformity to the original documents of all documents submitted to us as
copies.
 
     Upon the basis of the foregoing and in reliance thereon, and in reliance
upon such other matters as we deem relevant under the circumstances, it is our
opinion that the shares of common stock of the Fund issued during the Fund's
fiscal year ended July 31, 1997, the registration of which shares the Notice
makes definite in number, are legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
 
     We have not verified, are not passing upon and do not assume any
responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the statements contained in
the Notice, or for the propriety of the filing of the Notice with the
Commission.  Our opinion is limited to the Act and the laws of the State of
Maryland, and we express no opinion as to the applicability or effect of the
laws of any other jurisdiction.
 
     This letter is furnished to you pursuant to your request and to the
requirements imposed upon you by Rule 24f-2(b)(1) under the Act and is intended
solely for your benefit for the purpose of completing the filing of the Notice
with the Commission.  This letter may not be used for any other purpose or
furnished to or relied upon by any other persons, or including in any filing
made with any other regulatory authority, without our prior written consent.
 
                   Very truly yours,
                   s/ PAUL, HASTINGS, JANOFSKY & WALKER LLP
