Debate will begin Wednesday on an anti-Israel resolution presented by the Arab delegates to the International Labor Organization (ILO) meeting here despite intense efforts by the Secretariate and Israel’s friends to postpone it.

It calls for implementation of a 1974 resolution which charged Israel with discriminating against Palestinians.
