New York Sets Million-Dollar Relief for Italy

Benefit performances are scheduled at the Metropolitan and Manhattan opera houses next Saturday and the following week, with church appeals expected to boost donations. Insurance leaders caution that major U.S. and British firms will not face heavy losses due to the disaster.
