    Metals Hearing
    Precious Metals Trading
    Dear Sir;
    Thank for the opportunity to comment on the issue of position limits for precious metals. I
    endorse these recommendations by Ted Butler:
    "Please establish a speculative position limit in COMEX silver of no more than 1500 contracts.
    Please restrict any hedging exemptions from those limits to legitimate hedgers. Please stop the
    levels of concentration in COMEX silver futures that have been experienced over the past few years
    on the short side of the market."
    Otherwise I request the CFTC to maintain free markets in al commodities.
    Sincerely,
    George Hoashi
