Economy split as experts debate future despite optimism
Cyril Magnin of Jos. Magnin Women's Wear notes confidence in a steadier economy. Eugene Zorn of Republic National Bank says conditions are on a firmer footing, while R G Follis of Standard Oil California warns against perpetual vigor.

Others predict a strong upsurge driven by postwar baby boom and rising minority incomes, plus freer trade under the 1962 Act and the European Market.
