From: Bartnaylor@aol.com Sent: Thursday, November 21, 2002 2:48 PM To: rule-comments@sec.gov Subject: File No. S7-38-02; Nov. 21, 2002 Re: File Numbers S7-36-02 and S7-38-02 Mr. Jonathan G. Katz, Secretary Securities and Exchange Commission 450 Fifth Street NW, Washington, DC 20549-060 9 Dear Secretary Katz: I enthusiastically SUPPORT the Securities and Exchange Commission's recently proposed rule regarding Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Proxy Voting Records by Registered Management Investment Companies (File No. S7-36-02). This important disclosure will serve to police the exclusive obligation mutual fund managers owe to their investor clients. The SEC's supporting document details the many reasons for this important reform, which have since be augmented by the thoughtful letters of Timothy Smith, Ami Domini and others. Sincerely, Bartlett Naylor Capital Strategies Consulting, Inc.
