  1. 1 The States are grouped according to the method used by the Bureau of the Census, U.S. Department of Commerce.
  2. 2 Due to technical difficulties, data discrepancies exceed 2 percent but are less than 3 percent in case totals for Tables 11, 15B, 15C, and 16.

608 of 608 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out.

Reader’s notes

p. 180. The crop is a partial page: the table ends mid-way, after the "Mountain" division subtotal, and continues on the rest of the page/following page (other census divisions and the grand total are not shown). Footnote markers 1 (on "Division and State") and 2 (on "Total elections") are printed in the headings, but the footnote texts themselves are not on this crop, so `footnotes` is empty. Column structure: 15 columns — stub, "Total elections", four columns under "Number of elections in which representation rights were won by unions" (Total, AFL-CIO unions, Other national unions, Other local unions), then three tall single-level columns (no representative chosen / employees eligible to vote / total valid votes cast), four columns under "Valid votes cast for unions" (same four sub-headings), then "Total votes for no union" and "Eligible employees in units choosing representation". The last heading is typeset as "Eligible employ- ees in units choos- ing rep- resentati on"; hyphenated line breaks were repaired and the final broken word joined to "representation". All division subtotal rows (East North Central, East South Central, Middle Atlantic, Mountain) add up exactly to their constituent state rows in every column, which supports the digit reading. Nothing illegible; no values were computed or corrected.

p. 181. The crop is a continuation page ("—Continued") and is cut off at the bottom: the row after "District Of Columbia" (and the remaining divisions, the grand total and the footnote texts for markers 1 and 2) fall on the following page. No footnote text is printed on this image, so `footnotes` is empty even though the stub heading carries marker 1 and "Total elections" carries marker 2. The three division subtotal rows ("New England", "Outlying Areas", "Pacific") are printed indented and set off by double rules; they are transcribed as ordinary rows with their printed values. "District Of Columbia" is transcribed with the capital "O" as printed. The heading of the last column is broken across lines as "Eligible employ-/ees in units choos-/ing rep-/resentati/on"; it is joined as "Eligible employees in units choosing representation". All cells were legible; the three subtotal rows cross-foot correctly against their member states in every numeric column, which supports the column assignments.

p. 182. The crop is a continuation page: the table begins on earlier pages, so the South Atlantic division's first states (e.g. Delaware, District of Columbia) are not on this image and the South Atlantic subtotal row therefore exceeds the sum of the state rows shown here. The West North Central and West South Central divisions are complete on this image and their subtotals do add up. In the "West South Central" row, the "Number of employees eligible to vote" cell is printed as 1798 with no digit-grouping comma (every other four-digit value in that column carries one); transcribed as printed. The division's four state values do sum to 1,798. Column headings are heavily hyphenated in the original and were rejoined: "Total elec-tions" -> "Total elections"; "Number of elec-tions in which no rep-resenta-tive was chosen"; "Number of em-ployees eligible to vote"; and the last column "Eligible employ-ees in units choos-ing rep-resentati on" -> "Eligible employees in units choosing representation" (the original breaks "representation" oddly, ending with a line reading just "on"). The superscript 1 on the stub heading "Division and State" and the superscript 2 on "Total elections" are footnote markers, recorded with carets.
