    Dear Sir;
    Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the issue of position limits for precious metals.
    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.
    And the same applies to gold.
    Yours sincerely,
    Christo Smit
