Subject: support new rules for mutual fund proxy vote disclosure (s7-36-02)

I support a requirement that Mutual Funds disclose to share holders how they 
vote their proxy's. With so much 401K, and IRA  money invested in mutual funds, 
the fund managers control large blocks of corporate stock, hence as a group 
they can control enough proxy votes to influence corporate management.  
Investors need to know how they are voting! We need to bring an end to the 
corporate mismanagement allowed by the Fund managers and investment advisors.  
 
Until investors can be confident of accurate financial disclosure and corporate 
management accountability - we will continue to withdraw investing from the 
stock market.
