Dear Commission:
As a private citizen and individual investor, I am writing to
ask you to govern for the people by:
i) establishing a speculative position limit in COMEX silver of
no more than 1500 contracts;
2) restricting any hedging exemptions from those limits to
legitimate hedgers; and
3) stopping the levels of concentration in COMEX silver futures
on the short side of the market.
From what I read, you must be in particular, as CFTC Chair,
under enormous pressure to retain the status quo. But, as you
well know, to do nothing is to continue to distort the real
nature of the silver market. Please resist the forces of the
big commercial interests by doing the right and responsible
thing.
Thank you for offering your time and energy in service to the
CFTC and our country.
Aloha from Hawaii,
