Reader’s notes
p. 180. Two-panel table: the left panel (section A through the 8(b) subsection list) is transcribed first, then the right panel (the 8(b) Recapitulation through section D), using one set of column headings. The stub column carries no printed heading in either panel. The scan loses thin marks: decimal points in the percent column print as gaps ("100 0", "17 2") and the periods in section labels ("A Charges filed ... under sec 8(a)") are faint. I have written them as decimal points and as "A." / "sec." / "B1." / "B2." respectively, since the spacing and the sense require them; no digits or words were otherwise altered. "Subsections of sec. 8(a)" and "Subsections of sec. 8(b)" are label-only lines; the figures on the following line sit opposite the indented "Total cases", so each is transcribed as a separate row. The recapitulation row "8(a)(1)^2" carries a raised 2. Footnote 2 itself is not visible: the crop cuts the footnote block off in mid-sentence after "...the total", so footnote 1 is incomplete and footnote 2 (and any further note) is missing. Arithmetic checks pass as transcribed: the 8(a) subsection detail sums to 28,995, the 8(b) subsection detail sums to 11,526, and the 8(b)(4) and 8(b)(7) recapitulation figures equal the corresponding sums of the detail lines. No suspected misprints.
