    Metals Hearing
    position limits- my request
    To the CFTC
    Dear Sir/Madam,
    I followed the discussions on the levels of concentration in the Comex
    futures market on the short side with great interest, and as a participant
    in these markets I agree that something does not seem right.
    I therefore would like to request you to make sure that these levels of
    concentration are stopped, and that there are speculative position limits
    established in the Comex silver market of 1000 to 1500 contracts whereby you
    should restrict hedging exemptions to legitimate hedgers. I assume that it
    is in your power to do so.
    I hope all these hours of discussions and public hearings will lead to more
    fair and transparent markets.
    Regards,
    C.J. Herderschee
