    Metals Hearing
    Speculative Limits
    Dear Sir;
    Thank 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.
    As an 80 year old small scale silver investor, I urge you to take action now to prevent more
    damage to our already weakened economy. We small investors need protection from the
    actions of the speculators.
    Thank you,
    Raymond H. E\lliott
