Mr. Jonathan G. Katz, Secretary
Securities and Exchange Commission
450 Fifth Street NW,
Washington, DC 20549-0609
Dear Secretary Katz:
I'd like to submit comments pertaining to File Numbers S7-36-02 and S7-38-02.
I'm writing to support the new proposed rules which would force mutual funds
to disclose their proxy votes.
Like millions of Americans I have the bulk of my retirement money invested in
mutual funds. Openness and transparency are good things. Especially now - in
light of the ongoing disclosures of billions of dollars worth of corporate
scandal, fraud and malfeasance. I trust my mutual funds - I think. But as the
headlines of the past year remind me, I'd just like to make sure.
Sincerely,
Peter Henry
