The American Federation of Labor national convention here, in a resolution, called on the United States Government to be “unsparing” in its efforts to bring about peace between Israel and the Arab states on a basis of mutual recognition of each other’s existence.
The resolution also urged the U. S. to reject every move to organize the Middle East’s defense without taking into account every country in the area. It demanded that before arms are granted to any country in the Middle East it “must demonstrate its earnest desire” to live in peace with its neighbors. Further, the AFL resolution called for free and undisturbed use of the Suez Canal as an international waterway.
