Reader’s notes

p. 181. 15 columns. The table is a single panel; the caption line is cut off at the top of the crop and is not transcribed. Crop boundary: the last transcribed row, "3,000 to 9,999", sits on the bottom edge of the image; the page certainly continues below (at minimum a larger size class and section "B."), so rows beyond this point are cut off. Section A nevertheless appears complete here: every numeric column I transcribed sums exactly to its printed "Total RC and RM elections" value (185,556 eligible; 2,993 elections; 921 AFL-CIO; 411 Teamsters; 60 other national; 100 other local; 1,501 no representative), and "Percent of total" accumulates exactly to the printed cumulative column. Faint/absent decimal points (scan artifact, resolved from column context and confirmed arithmetically): - "50 to 59", Cumulative percent of total: printed as "74 2"; transcribed 74.2, which is exactly 69.1 + 5.1 and matches the running cumulative chain. - "400 to 499", Other national unions / Percent by size class: printed as "1 7"; transcribed 1.7, matching the 1/60 = 1.7 value printed identically for the "80 to 89" and "800 to 999" rows. Other readings: - "Total RC and RM elections", Cumulative percent of total, holds a dash rule and is given as "". - Every em-dash rule in the percent-by-size-class columns (zero counts) is given as "". - Row label "1000 to 1,999" is printed without a comma in the first figure; transcribed as printed. - The "Other local unions" sub-heading reads "Percent of size class" on this page, where the three companion columns read "Percent by size class"; transcribed as printed. - A stray ink speck appears to the left of the "80 to 89" Teamsters figure and to the left of the "200 to 299" no-representative figure; both are page dirt, not footnote markers, and are not transcribed. No footnotes are printed within the crop.

p. 182. 15 columns. The crop is a continuation page: the caption line is cut off at the top and the only footnote line is clipped at the very bottom edge, so "1 See Glossary of terms for definitions." is read from a partially cut line (the marker is a small raised 1 and the final period is below the crop edge). Column span reading of the header: the four columns "Number eligible to vote", "Total elections", "Percent of total" and "Cumulative percent of total" are tall single-level boxes spanning all three heading levels, so each is repeated in all three rows; "Elections in which no representative was chosen" spans the top two levels over its two columns. Heading wording as printed: the sub-head over the "Other local unions" percent column reads "Percent of size class", whereas the matching sub-heads under AFL-CIO unions, Teamsters, Other national unions and "no representative was chosen" all read "Percent by size class". Transcribed as printed; the "of" is most likely a typesetting slip. Doubtful cells: in the "Total RD elections" row the AFL-CIO "Percent by size class" cell prints as "100 0" with the decimal point not inked; transcribed as "100.0" to match the four other 100.0 totals on that line. In the "120 to 129" row the AFL-CIO "Number" cell is overprinted by scan speckle and reads ambiguously (it looks like a struck "T"); transcribed as 1, which is what the printed 0.8 percent and the column total require. All dash rules ("------") in the cumulative-percent and the various percent columns are rendered as "", including the cumulative-percent cell on the "Total RD elections" row. Arithmetic cross-checks (all consistent as printed, nothing altered): the 22 size-class rows sum to 34,174 eligible, 606 total elections, 127 AFL-CIO, 45 Teamsters, 1 other national, 8 other local and 425 no-representative, matching every printed total; the "Percent of total" column accumulates exactly to the printed "Cumulative percent of total" column at every row, ending at 100.0.
