      <description><![CDATA[&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;WASHINGTON _ The Federal Reserve escalated its war on the nation's credit crisis Wednesday, announcing that it would more than double the amount of money it will spend in the coming year in an aggressive effort to force down interest rates on mortgages _ perhaps by as much as 1 percentage point _ as well as other business and consumer loans.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The move, which cheered the markets, is designed to keep money flowing through the economy's clogged credit arteries to foster economic recovery.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;David M.
