Date: 06/20/2000 9:40 AM Subject: SEC's_Concept_Release File_#S7-24 Dear SEC; Please stop OTCBB Market Makers shorting stocks by approving SEC's Concept Release 34-42037, File #S7-24-99. I have been witnessing Market Maker manipulation in stocks I am invested in (INVT and TDCM). In INVT's case, the shorting is blatant and fraudulent to the point of not honoring the foreign Market Makers request trades (certificates). It is obvious they do not have shares certificates available to satisfy their request. What is an investor to do? We do not have the power, organization nor expertise to deal with such powerful and illusive companies. I, together with many shareholders ask you for your help stopping these costly unfair and illegal Market Makers activities. Let the market be a free environment where our hard earned investment moneys are fairly protected by our government bodies. Sincerely, William Henning
