Date: 4/6/99 1:17 PM Subject: RE: File No. S7-30-98 In reference to the above proposal of the SEC to shorten the filing deadlines for 10-K and 10-Q reporting, please be advised that I feel this would place an undue burden on companies, particularly small companies with limited resources such as our company. Our accounting staff is quite strained now during the 45 day time frame they have now to prepare the 10-Q. Shorten this time frame can only result in increasing the potential for reporting errors and inaccuracies. I trust that you will consider my comments and leave the current time frame for reporting intact. Thank you. Richard C. Laubach President/CEO Security of Pennsylvania Financial Corp.
