File No. S7-51-02 The proposed quarterly disclosures of investment company holdings serves the best interest of the investors so that investment decisions can be based upon timely disclosure of the portfolio holdings and will curtail the annual window dressing turnover of some holdings to include the current high performing stocks. The regulation of the mutual fund industry is a Federal Government function. The performance of self-regulating organizations is dismal-ie The self-regulation of the accounting industry is a good example of this. Hans Lange 116 Laurel Ct.
