    Metals Heating
    Exceptions to postition limits
    Dear Sir;
    fohank for the opportunity to comment on the issue of posit!on limits
    r precious metals. Please establish a speculative position limit in
    COMEX silver of no more than 2500 co~ntract.s either long o.r short.
    .Please restrict any hedging.exemptions trom those position li.rnits to
    legitimate hedgers, andto the extent exemptions are permitecl to
    those limits by varifiable "legitimate hedgers" the shorts amon~ them
    should be required to show warehouse receipts and the longs 100%
    cash for purchase.
    Please stop the levels of conc.entratio~n in COMEX silver futures that
    hav.e been .ex.perienced over the past tew years on the short si~d.e of the
    mar.ket and
    that
    I believe have been part of a manipulation ot- the
    .
    market effectively robbing those who invest in the silver market and
    related shares.
    Sincerely,
    Jim Stowell
