    1) The position limitin silver should br no more than 1500 contracts tbe in line with all other comodities.
    2) The current proposal falls way short of stopping manipulation due to concentration.
    3) The continuing chaos in the silver market is 100% due to the poor enforcement of commodit law by the CFTC.
    4) The delay in the investigation in illegal trading in gold and silver and enforcement of commodity law has made investors lose all faith in the CFTC.
    5) No special higher limits to contracts held should be given to banking or any financial institutions for hedging as they are not legiitimate users ur supliers of the commodity of silver.
    6) Anything other than strict enforcement of position limits will be nothing more than a capitulation by the CFTC to the manipulators of silver therefore will be deemed by the public as the CFTC being as criminal as the manipulators themselves.


    It is completely ludicrous that one or two banks continue to "sell" silver that simply do not have to sell. It is increasingly clear that the CFTC is basically allowing concentration in silver (and gold) that would be considered criminal with other commodities.
