From: mike@layerz.com Sent: Monday, November 11, 2002 12:02 AM To: rule-comments@sec.gov Subject: File No. S7-36-02 Dear SEC Secretary, I support the SEC's proposed rule to require mutual fund companies to disclose how they vote on corporate proxy resolutions. Mutual funds are nothing more than the custodians of their shareholders' funds. As such, they should be required to divulge how they vote on behalf of their shareholders.
