- Information found: (in obituary dated "today": Anthony Downs, an economist whose wide-ranging studies of politics and urban affairs offered a rationale for why citizens would not vote in elections and explained why expanding the highway system would lead to more traffic jams, died Oct. 2 in Bethesda, Md. He was 90. Dr. Downs, the rare economist who was not an academic, spent most of his career working at two organizations: his father's real estate research firm in Chicago and the Brookings Institution think tank in Washington. James Anthony Downs was born Nov. 21, 1930, in Evanston, Ill. His father was a consultant and entrepreneur who established the Real Estate Research Corp. Dr. Downs graduated in 1953 from Carleton College in Northfield, Minn., then over the next three years received a master's degree and a doctorate in economics, both from Stanford University. He began working at his father's research company in 1959 and also taught at the University of Chicago from 1959 to 1962. He moved from Chicago to Washington in 1977, when he joined Brookings. He was a resident of McLean, Va.)
