Reader’s notes

p. 179. The image is a full page showing two tables; this transcription covers only the first one (Table 4, Remedial Action Taken in Unfair Labor Practice Cases Closed), matching the t0 index in the filename. Below it the page begins Table 5 (Industrial Distribution of Unfair Labor Practice and Representation Cases Received), which is not transcribed here, together with its "See footnotes at end of table." line. Structure: the column headings (Total / By agreement of all parties / By Board or court order) are printed once, over panel A; panel B repeats no headings but uses the same three columns. The stub column has no printed heading (only a stray ink speck). The section lines "A BY EMPLOYERS 1", "B. BY UNIONS 4", and the four "Cases" / "Workers" sub-section lines are value-less section rows; note that "Cases" and "Workers" are actually printed centered across the three numeric columns rather than in the stub, but they are placed in the stub cell here so the grid stays rectangular. "A BY EMPLOYERS" is transcribed without a period after the "A" because none is visible in the scan; given the parallel "B. BY UNIONS" a faint period may have dropped out. Likewise, footnote 1 and footnote 3 show no terminal period, and footnote 4 shows a wide gap (no visible period) between "in 43 cases" and "This included"; all are transcribed as printed. In the "Workers receiving back pay" row of panel A, the raised 2 before 635 and the raised 3 before 1,320 are footnote markers, moved behind a caret; the values are 635 and 1,320. No arithmetic was corrected, and every column of both panels adds across to its printed total.
