Industrial Distribution of Representation Elections Held in Cases Closed, Fiscal Year 1979

p. 321. The crop is cut off at the bottom: the table continues past "Crude petroleum and natural gas production" (the remaining mining, construction, transportation, trade, service and non-manufacturing rows and the grand total are on the continuation). The stub heading carries footnote marker 1 ("Industrial group^1"), but the footnote text itself falls below the crop, so `footnotes` is empty. All values were cross-checked and reconcile exactly: in every data row the union-win breakdown (AFL-CIO + Teamsters + other national + other local) equals the "Total" won column, total elections equals wins plus no-representative elections, the union vote breakdown equals total union votes, and union votes plus no-union votes equals total valid votes cast. Every one of the 16 numeric columns also sums down the 22 industry rows to the printed "Manufacturing" subtotal. No misprints detected. One doubtful area: in the "Tobacco manufacturers" row the digits under "Other national unions" and "Other local unions" are faint and sit close to the "3" printed in the row below; both are read as 0, which is confirmed by the column sums (other national = 146, other local = 87 for Manufacturing) and by the row's own total of 1 win.

p. 322. Continuation page: no column headings are printed on this crop, so header_rows is empty. The grid has 17 columns (stub + 16 figure columns), counted from the column rules and confirmed by the rule positions in every band. MISSING LINE OF FIGURES. In the band after "Retail trade" the stub carries two labels, "Finance, insurance, and real estate" (wrapped over two lines, with leader dashes on the "estate" line) and "U.S. Postal Service", but only ONE line of figures is printed in that band. That line sits on the "U.S. Postal Service" baseline, so it is transcribed there and "Finance, insurance, and real estate" is left with empty cells. There is also about one extra line of blank vertical space inside that band, consistent with a figure line dropped in the source. A reader who needs the finance or Postal Service figures should check the original page: if the whole figure stack in this band slipped one line, the 139/9,827 row would belong to "Finance, insurance, and real estate" instead. SUBTOTAL THAT DOES NOT ADD. The division line "Transportation, communication, and other utilities" is short of the sum of the seven sub-rows printed above it, in every one of the 16 columns, by exactly the amounts on the "Local and suburban transit and interurban highway passenger transportation" line (col 1: components 1,034 vs printed 1,030; col 2: 536 vs 532; col 3: 214 vs 210; col 8: 38,914 vs 38,602; col 9: 33,121 vs 32,852; col 10: 18,161 vs 17,930; col 16: 20,042 vs 19,730). Transcribed as printed, uncorrected. This, together with the missing line above, suggests a one-line offset between stub and figures somewhere in the middle of the page; I have kept every value on the line it is physically printed on. CHECKS THAT PASSED. Every other row is internally consistent, which supports the column assignment: cols 3+4+5+6 = col 2 and col 2 + col 7 = col 1; cols 11+12+13+14 = col 10 and col 10 + col 15 = col 9. This holds for all 32 rows including the "Services", "Public administration" and "Total, all industrial groups" lines, and the 14 Services sub-rows sum exactly to the printed "Services" line in every column. Minor points: the periods in "U.S. Postal Service" are not resolvable at this resolution (it reads as "U S Postal Service"); the label is given in its standard form. A small ink speck sits just above the 12 in column 11 of the "Museums, art galleries, botanical and zoological gardens" row; it is dirt, not a footnote marker. A partially cut line of print appears below the bottom rule at the foot of the crop; it is illegible and is almost certainly the running foot or page number, so it is not transcribed. No footnotes are printed on this part of the table.
