Reader’s notes
p. 297. Six printed columns: stub, "All cases", three columns under the spanner "Unfair labor practice cases" ("All C cases", "CA cases 1", "Other C cases 1"), and "Representation cases". Footnote markers are printed as raised digits to the LEFT of their values in the body (raised "2 3" before 328, raised "4" before 80, raised "5" before each 400); per the convention requested they are written after the value. Cells shown as dash rules in the image are transcribed as "". The last five body rows are indented under "Decisions issued, total" in the original; the indentation is not represented in the grid. Footnote 2 reads "Includes one N. L. R. A case" with a wide gap and no terminal period — the final period after "A" and the sentence period are either absent or lost in the scan; footnote 4 likewise ends without a period. In footnote 5 the scan runs "Regional" and "director" together after a sentence break with no printed period ("...stipulated elections Regional director certifications..."); transcribed with a space and no inserted period. All printed totals are internally consistent (rows sum across and the five detail rows sum to the "Decisions issued, total" line).
