Reader’s notes

p. 225. Decimal points: the scan has lost the decimal point in a number of percent cells, which print as a gap (e.g. "100 0", "6 8", "11 7", "16 6", "0 5"). Every percent in this table is printed to one decimal place, and the restored values reconcile with their column totals, so these are transcribed with the point: RC Percent of "Total, all" (100.0); RD Percent of "After hearing closed, before decision" under Consent election (0.0); RM and RD Percent of "Regional Director-directed election" (6.8, 7.1); RC Percent of "Board-directed election" (0.0); RD Percent of "By withdrawal, total" (11.7); RC, RM and RD Percent of the first "Before notice of hearing" under By withdrawal (1.6, 1.2, 1.6); All R Percent of "After Regional Director's decision and direction of election" (1.7); All R Percent of "Before notice of hearing" under By dismissal (16.6); UD Percent of "After notice of hearing, before hearing closed" under By dismissal (0.5); RM, RD and UD Percent of "After hearing closed, before decision" under By dismissal (0.4, 0.1, 0.5); RD and UD Percent of "By Regional Director's decision" (1.6, 0.0); UD Percent of "By Board decision" (0.5). Arithmetic check (not applied to the cells, only used to confirm the readings): in all five case groups the three component totals sum exactly to "Total, all", and the detail lines sum exactly to each of the three totals, in both Number and Percent. "After:" is a section line with a label and no values. The indented stage lines ("Before notice of hearing", etc.) repeat under Consent election, Stipulated election, By withdrawal and By dismissal; they are transcribed in printed order and their wording is not disambiguated. A faint partial line of text is cut off at the very bottom edge of the crop, below the last rule. It is almost certainly a footnote, but too little of it is visible to read, so footnotes is left empty rather than reconstructed.
