    Metals Hearing
    Precious metals position limits, hedging exemptions, and concentration in silver
    futures
    Dear Sir;
    Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the issue of position limits
    for precious metals. Please do the right thing to protect the public
    interest by establishing 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 extreme levels
    of concentration in COMEX silver futures that have been experienced over
    the past few years on the short side of the market. I am a disabled
    veteran who believes my and others savings would be best served by a
    truly free and open metals market. It is time to level the playing field.
    Sincerely,
    James Young
