I am writing to voice my objections to the SEC's new proposed rules (S7-25-97). 
If adopted, these rules will all but destroy the rights of American 
shareholders.
     
Please stop these proposed rules from going forward. Either let the existing 
rules stand or develop new rules that better protect shareholders. American 
shareholders are counting on you to safeguard our rights. Don't let these 
proposed rules be another set of regulations from Washington that favor big 
business.
     
The process as it stands today is an important tool for protecting my financial 
interests as a stock owner. It is also an important marketplace mechanism for 
promoting corporate accountability and corporate responsibility.
     
Please protect American shareholders by stopping the proposed rules from going 
forward.
     
Sincerely,
David S. Ehle
