Reader’s notes

p. 13. Six columns: stub plus three under "Number of cases" and two under "Percent of total". The stub heading "Fiscal year" and the first-level span headings occupy two heading levels, so the stub label is repeated in both. The first body row is the 1936–45 cumulative total (printed with an en dash, as in the caption) and is indented/offset from the single-year rows below it. Scan quality is good but the halftone makes some digits slightly ragged: the year labels 1936 and 1937 read as "1036"/"1037" at pixel level and the 1938 "All cases" value's leading "10" is faint; all were resolved by shape and by arithmetic. All internal arithmetic checks out as printed (each year's unfair + representation equals all cases; the ten yearly figures sum to the 1936–45 totals 77,231 / 37,306 / 39,925), so no misprints are suspected. Typesetting leaves a space after the grouping comma throughout ("77, 231"); those spaces were removed per instruction. No footnotes are printed under the table.
