BOSTON. April 15.-ApproXi-
mately 5000 operators of the New
England Telephone and Telegraph

at O'Clock this morning TO en-
force their demands for increased
wages.
Hospitals and institutions or every
description where telephones are de-
pended upon in emergencies were
without service Practically the en-
tire telephone system of New Eng
land was paralyZed. Nearly 1900
other telephone employees will join
the strike of the operators today ac-
cording to union leaders.
The strike went into effect with
out disorder. The night operators
left the exchanges sharply at Z
O'Clock and at that hour members
Of the day force. instead of entering
the company's building, placed
pickets about them.

The union places the blame for
the situation upon Postmaster Gen.

Hospitals, newspapers, hotels

service as result of which there
was some confusion in the early
