    comment on metals hearing
    Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the issue of position limits. 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. The
    takedown talked about by Mr. Maquire in Oct. 2008 at the hearing affected me personally as I held
    silver options in the DBS powershares at the time. Thank you again for the opportunity.
    Sincerely
    Bill Duffy
