    Dear Sir,
    Thank you for giving me the opportunity to comment on the issue of position limits for
    precious metals.
    I am writing you to request that you please establish a speculative position limit in
    COMEX silver of no more than 1500 contracts, and please also restrict any hedging
    exemptions from those limits as well to legitimate hedgers. In addition, 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.
    Thank you for all of your efforts to improve the integrity of our markets.
    Sincerely,
    Ed Leary
    President
