The early Easter, merchants hope, will start the ball rolling. The contagion of optimism could alleviate, if not cure, some of the economic ills that have worried the experts in (he uncertain months of winter. Such hope apparently is what Ctmmcrce Secretary Luther H. Hodges has in mind when he says he thinks the economy is now in position to start to move upward. "I think there's a better spirit and a general feeling Uiat things are going our way and are going to get better soon," the secretary says.

Fairly normal weather in the latter part of Februaiy helped increase department slore sales volume and sales of new cars. The Morgan Guaranty Trust, New Ycrk, notes in its March survey: 'This upswing trade helped lo dispel earlier concern that consumers might be succumbing to 'recession psychology. 1 Many merchants are firmly convinced that consumer psychology feeds on itself. Uncertainty about the future of the economy, they hold, cuts retail sales. And as these fall, consumers gel more nervous and either hold onto their cash in fear of an upcoming day.

Erskine Jnhnsnn Hollywood Today Movies--Television--Kadio THE EVENING STANDARD, TUESDAY. MARCH 14, HOLLYWOOD (NBA) Movies may be getting longer and wider every day but the "compact" restaurant is here to stay, we've just been assured.

Two of reasons for 'the shrinking size of automobiles are also behind the popularity of the little bislrp, claims George Dolenz, who is half actor and half restaurateur. They are, says he. "the public's demand for more quality for the dollar and Ihe jel age spreading international styling." "People want quality and they also want some favorite dish they discovered last week in Paris or Hong Kong or Home. The little restaurant can provide both." Dolenz has always been an ac- lor who knows where his next meal is coming from "because," he chuckles, "I've always mixed acting wild being a headwailer or owning my own restaurant." Today he is half-owner of a swank lillle cafe, The Marquis, on Hollywood's Sunset Strip where the menu reflects that world travel is doing to U. S.

Except for (hree years when he was under contract lo Howard Hughes al Ihe old RKO s(u- dio, Dolenz always has combined slicing ham at both ends of town.
