    Metals Heating
    COMEX Silver Hearing in March, 2010
    Dear Sir:
    Thank you for holding the recent public hearing on the issue of position limits for precious metals and the
    opportunity to comment on this issue. Please establish a speculative position limit in COMEX silver of no more
    than 1500 contracts, restrict any hedging exemptions from those limits to legitimate hedgers, and stop the levels
    of concentration in silver futures that have been evidenced over that past several years on the short side of the
    market. Similar comments would apply to gold contracts, particularly with respect to the short side
    concentration issue.
    Sincerely,
    Dr. Paul J. Cahill
