From: AShipster@aol.com Sent: Thursday, December 05, 2002 11:23 AM To: rule-comments@sec.gov Subject: File No. S7-36-02 File No. S7-38-02 Greetings I am a socially concerned investor and I am writing to support these two measures: “Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Proxy Voting Records by Registered Management Investment Companies,” and “Proxy Voting by Investment Advisers” (File No. S7-36-02 and File No. S7-38-02). I believe that shareholder's voting should indeed be public information. In this time of corporate irresponsibility and downright immoral and illegal behavior, this is one step that can help us, the average citizen. Please pass these measures. Thank you. Sincerely, Amy Yarnall Wilmington, DE
