From: TFinn4184@aol.com Sent: Tuesday, October 29, 2002 2:13 PM To: rule-comments@sec.gov Subject: Comment on S7-36-02 Mr. Katz: As a longtime investor in mutual funds, I endorse the Agency's proposal (S7-36002) making mutual fund's proxy voting public, or at the very least more easily disclosed to their own investors. However, the SEC should also require that mutual fund's disclose possible conflicts of interest. Mutual Fund companies should not be able to hide from their investors how they vote on corporate proxies. T.D. Finnigan, 9501 Mt. Vernon Landing, Alexandria, VA 22309
