...prohibit all private cars from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. and from 5 p.m. until 9 p.m. from the 35-block, 25-acre heart of the city's shopping center (see map). Shoppers would thus have an "isola pedonale"-a pedestrian island-all to themselves during peak hours save for buses and taxis.

...employers responded to a fall-off in demand by slicing wages and dumping workers, said Keynes, that would only reduce incomes and demand, and plunge production still deeper. If bankers responded to a fall-off in sayings by raising interest rates, that would not tempt penniless people to save more?but it would move hard-pressed industrialists to borrow less for capital investment.
