Size of Units in Collective-Bargaining and Decertification Elections, Fiscal Year 1953

p. 120. Eleven columns: stub, Number of elections, Percent of total, three two-column union groups under "Elections in which representation rights were won by—", and two columns under "Elections in which no representative was chosen". Structure: the page holds two stacked panels, A (collective-bargaining elections) and B (decertification elections), that share a single set of column headings printed once at the top. The panel label "A. COLLECTIVE-BARGAINING ELECTIONS" is printed above the column headings (between the caption and the table rules) and "B. DECERTIFICATION ELECTIONS" between the two bodies; both are transcribed as label-only section rows in reading order, so row 1 of the grid sits above the heading rows on the page. Decimal points: this scan prints many decimal points faintly or not at all, so numerous percent cells read as a digit gap (e.g. Total/Unaffiliated unions Percent prints as "100 0"; row 1-9 Percent of total as "22 6"; A.F.L. Percent in rows 30-39, 50-59, 80-89, 100-149, 150-199, 1,000-1,999 similarly). Every value in these columns is a one-decimal percentage and all ten percent columns sum exactly to their printed totals, so the gaps are faded periods and I have written the decimal point in each case. Two cells show only "0" with no visible leading period in the Percent column that follows the Unaffiliated unions / C. I. O counts: panel B row 10-19 (Unaffiliated unions Percent) and panel B row 90-99 (C. I. O Percent). I transcribed both as ".0" to match every other zero-percent cell in those columns; the column totals confirm the value is zero either way. The A.F.L. Percent cells for panel A rows 5,000-9,999 and 10,000-15,000 hold a parenthesized superscript 1 in place of a value (the "less than one-tenth of 1 percent" footnote); transcribed as "(^1)". Verification: in both panels all five count columns and all five percent columns add exactly to the printed totals (panel A: 6,050 / 2,750 / 1,114 / 486 / 1,700, and each percent column to 100.0; panel B: 141 / 23 / 18 / 3 / 97, each percent column to 100.0). No internal inconsistencies or suspected misprints found. The group heading over the C. I. O columns is printed "C. I. O affiliates" with no period after the O; transcribed as printed. A stray ink mark precedes the A.F.L. "Percent" heading and the "17.7" in panel B row 10-19; both are scan artifacts, not characters.
