    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 as well 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.
    Thank you for all you efforts to improve the integrity of our markets.
    Best Regards,
    ALAN TASHMAN
