Reader’s notes
p. 171. Nine columns: stub, All cases, and the seven case-type columns under the two spanner headings (CA/CB/CC/CD under "Unfair labor practice cases"; RC/RM/RD under "Representation cases"). Arithmetic verification: every state row's seven case-type cells sum to its "All cases" figure; every division row equals the sum of its member states; and the ten division subtotals sum to the printed Total of 14,041. No discrepancies found, which gives strong independent support for the digits as transcribed. Minor scan artifacts, none affecting the values read: a stray speck precedes the Indiana "All cases" figure (422), the Georgia "All cases" figure (200), the Pacific CC figure (45), the Montana RM figure (5), the Idaho CC figure (0), and the Washington RD figure (11); these are printing/scanning marks, not footnote markers or digits. Several stub labels carry faint marginal specks in the left margin (e.g. beside New Hampshire, Indiana, Kansas, Arizona), also not part of the labels. Footnote markers: the heading "Division and State" carries a raised 1, and each of the seven case-type column headings carries a raised 2.
