123 of 146 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out. 1 cell breaks a sum: 'Decisions and orders by the Bo', column 12: prints 30, rows 'Upon consent of part' to 'Backpay decisions' add to 32.
Reader’s notes
p. 171. Column count is 14: stub + "Cases in which formal actions taken" + 12 columns under the spanner "Formal actions taken by type of case" (Total formal actions taken; CA; CB; CC; CD split into "Jurisdictional disputes" and "Unfair labor practices"; CE; CG; CP; CA combined with CB; C combined with representation cases; Other C combinations). Dash rules (em-dash/"----") are transcribed as empty cells. They occur in the CA/CB/CC/CD-ULP/CE/CG/CP/CA-with-CB/C-with-rep/Other-C columns of the "10(k) notices of hearings issued" row, and in the "Jurisdictional disputes" column of every row that shows a rule there (Complaints issued; Backpay specifications issued; Backpay hearings; Other hearings; Decisions by administrative law judges, total; Initial ULP decisions, Backpay decisions and Supplemental decisions under it; Initial decisions and Supplemental decisions under "Upon consent of parties"; Initial ULP decisions and Backpay decisions under "Adopting..."; Decisions based on stipulated record; Supplemental ULP decisions; Backpay decisions under "Contested"). Scan specks: in the "Complaints issued" row small comma- or apostrophe-like marks sit just after 72 (CC), 6 (CD unfair labor practices), 9 (CE) and 15 (CP), and in the "Backpay specifications issued" row after 0 (CC), 0 (CD unfair labor practices) and 0 (CP). These read as dirt/typesetting artifacts rather than footnote markers (the table carries only footnote 1), so they are not transcribed. The CE value in "Complaints issued" is read as 9. The footnote marker 1 is not visibly attached to any heading or row label on this crop; it presumably attaches to the caption, which is outside the crop. The caption and page number were excluded as instructed. Row labels wrapped in print and joined here: "Adopting administrative law judges' decisions (no excep-tions filed):" → "Adopting administrative law judges' decisions (no exceptions filed):". Headings joined: "CA com-bined with CB", "C combined with rep-resentation cases", "Other C combina-tions". No printed totals appear internally inconsistent in a way worth flagging beyond the above.
