Reader’s notes
p. 159. Eleven columns: stub plus Number/Percent pairs for All R, RC, RM, RD and UD cases. The footnote line at the very bottom of the crop is clipped by the lower edge (the descenders of "definitions." are partly cut), but the text is legible; no other footnote text appears below it. The row "After:" is a section label with no values. All internal sums check out (e.g. 3,005 + 1,789 + 314 = 5,108 for All R cases, and each section's components sum to its total in every column), so no apparent misprints. The apostrophes in "Regional Director's" are typographic right single quotes in the original; transcribed as plain apostrophes.
