      W. H. Thornburn, chairman of the Toronto Stock Exchange board of governors, sees a small revival of confidence by Canadian investors, but much less than I had expected by this time.

Thornburn thinks there could be new speculation in oil and gas stocks when results of winter drilling become available.
