Reader’s notes
p. 143. Nine columns: stub plus four Number/Percent-by-type pairs (Total, By employer, By union, By both parties). The stub has no printed heading, so cell 0 of both heading levels is empty. Percent cells printed as a short dash rule (em-dash) are transcribed as "" — these occur wherever the corresponding Number is 0: RM cases (By union, By both parties), RD cases (By both parties), and all four percent columns of the Consent, Expedited and Board-directed election rows. A small stray scan mark (resembling a tilde) sits just above and left of the word "Number" in the "By both parties" group heading cell; it is page noise, not a footnote marker, and is not transcribed. Minor print artifacts, all legible: "RM cases" By-employer Number shows a leading ink speck ("·1"), read as 1; the same row's By-employer percent reads 100.0 with a faint period. "RD cases" By-union Number shows a similar speck, read as 15. Printed arithmetic is internally consistent (253 = 91+159+3; 232 = 85+144+3; 188 = 71+115+2; 65 = 20+44+1); no suspected misprints.
