39 of 66 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out.
p. 88. The stub column has no printed heading; cell 0 of both header levels is therefore empty. Ten columns: stub plus three year columns under each of the three case-type headings. Cells left empty in the image are printed as dash rules (------), which are transcribed as "" per instruction; they occur in the unfair-labor-practice block (rows "Notice of Hearing issued", "Elections directed", "Certifications or dismissals after stipulated elections", "Certification or dismissal on the record") and in the representation block (rows "Complaints issued", "Intermediate Reports or proposed findings issued", "Decisions and Orders", "Decisions and Consent Orders"). The last five rows ("Decisions and Orders" through "Certification or dismissal on the record") are printed indented beneath the double-ruled "Decisions issued^2" line as its components; the indentation is not reproduced in the labels. Doubtful glyphs: "Intermediate Reports or proposed findings issued", All cases 1943, reads 252 but carries an ink smudge on the final digit (confirmed by the matching 252 in the unfair labor practice 1943 column). "Decisions and Consent Orders", unfair labor practice 1943, has a small stray ink speck to the left of 141 that is a printing artifact, not a footnote marker. The footnote marker on "Decisions issued" and on footnote 2 is a raised 2 that prints like a small superscript 3 in this scan; read as 2 from the footnote sequence. No arithmetic was altered; the printed All cases figures equal the sum of the two case-type blocks in every row checked.
