From: Ralph Haneke [rhaneke@cpcis.net] Sent: Monday, June 24, 2002 4:34 PM To: rule-comments@sec.gov Subject: File No. S7-25-99 I have been opposed to subject rule since proposed. The public deserves your protection from sales people posing as investment advisors without proper training and credentials. Please withdraw the Proposed Rule. It serves no useful purpose for the public. Sincerely, Ralph A. Haneke Registered Representative
