1,192 of 1,192 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out.

Reader’s notes

p. 145. The crop ends mid-table: the body is cut off after "Chemical Manufacturing" (the manufacturing section has no subtotal line yet and the table clearly continues on the following page). No footnote texts appear within the crop, although footnote markers are printed in the caption (Fiscal Year 2003^1) and on the stub heading (Industrial Group^2); the corresponding notes must be elsewhere on the page or on a later page. Column structure: 17 columns. The three right-hand columns carry a tall two-part heading, the descriptive name above a rule and the case-type code (UD, AC, UC) below it, so they are given as a third heading level; the stub, "All cases", and the sub-columns of the two spanner groups span down into that level and are repeated there. The indented rows (Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing, and Hunting; Mining; Construction; 31-Manufacturing) are sector subtotal lines set off by heavy rules; "Utilities" is a single-line sector of its own. "31-Manufacturing" is transcribed exactly as printed, with the leading sector number. All figures were cross-checked: in every row CA+CB+CC+CD+CE+CG+CP equals "All C cases", RC+RM+RD equals "All R cases", and All C + All R + UD + AC + UC equals "All cases"; each subtotal line also equals the sum of its component rows. No arithmetic discrepancies were found, and no cell was illegible.

p. 146. The crop is a continuation page: the table body begins mid-list (no "Total" line) and is cut off at the bottom after "General Merchandise Stores" — further industry rows and any footnote block continue on the following page, so `footnotes` is empty even though markers 1 (in the caption) and 2 (on "Industrial Group") are printed here. 17 printed columns. The headings occupy three bands: a top band with the spanner rules ("Unfair labor practice cases" over All C/CA/CB/CC/CD/CE/CG/CP, "Representation cases" over All R/RC/RM/RD), a middle band with the individual case-type labels, and a lower band holding UD, AC and UC. "Industrial Group", "All cases", "Union deauthorization cases", "Amendment of certification cases" and "Unit clarification cases" are tall single headings spanning the bands they sit in and are repeated accordingly. Wrapped/hyphenated headings were rejoined: "Union deauthor-ization cases", "Amend-ment of certifica-tion cases", "Unit clari-fication cases". Row labels wrapping to two printed lines were joined into one row: "Electrical Equipment, Appliance and Component Manufacturing" and "Building Material and Garden Equipment and Supplies Dealers". The rows "32-Manufacturing", "33-Manufacturing", "Wholesale Trade" and "44-Retail Trade" are indented subtotal lines set off by rules; indentation is not reproduced in the cell text. No illegible or doubtful cells. Every data row and every subtotal row cross-foots exactly (CA+CB+CC+CD+CE+CG+CP = All C; RC+RM+RD = All R; All C+All R+UD+AC+UC = All cases), and the four subtotal rows equal the sum of their component rows in all 16 numeric columns, so no misprints are suspected.

p. 147. The crop is a continuation page: it begins mid-table (the first two rows are the tail of the retail-trade block, whose section subtotal "45-Retail Trade" follows them) and is cut off at the bottom, immediately after "Securities, Commodity Contracts and Other Intermediation and Related Activities"; the finance section and its subtotal continue on the next page. No footnote text is printed on this page, although the caption carries a raised 1 and the stub heading a raised 2, whose texts appear elsewhere in the report. 17 printed columns: stub, "All cases", eight columns under "Unfair labor practice cases" (All C cases, CA, CB, CC, CD, CE, CG, CP), four under "Representation cases" (All R cases, RC, RM, RD), and three single columns whose two-line codes UD, AC and UC sit on the lower heading level. Possible misprint in the stub: the second transportation subtotal is printed "49-Transportation", identical in wording to "48-Transportation" above it; under NAICS, sector 49 (Postal Service, Couriers and Messengers, Warehousing and Storage) is normally labelled warehousing. Transcribed exactly as printed. Likewise the subtotal row for the information block is printed simply as "Information", with no NAICS number prefix, unlike the numbered subtotals above it. All row and column sums were checked against the printed subtotals (45-Retail Trade, 48-Transportation, 49-Transportation, Information) and every row's "All cases", "All C cases" and "All R cases" totals; all are internally consistent, so no numeric misprints are suspected. No cell was illegible.

p. 148. 17 columns: stub, "All cases", eight unfair-labor-practice columns (All C cases, CA, CB, CC, CD, CE, CG, CP), four representation columns (All R cases, RC, RM, RD), then UD, AC and UC. The three spanner headings over the last three columns ("Union deauthorization cases", "Amendment of certification cases", "Unit clarification cases") sit in the top band with their case-type codes (UD, AC, UC) printed in a third band below, so they are repeated across the header levels as instructed. This is a "—Continued" page, so the table's earlier rows and any footnotes are on preceding/following pages; none are printed on this crop. Consequently the indented subtotal row "Finance and Insurance" (137) is larger than the sum of the two detail rows shown above it (49 + 17), because the rest of that sector's detail rows fall on the previous page. All other indented subtotal rows on this page (Real Estate and Rental and Leasing; Administrative and Support, Waste Management and Remediation Services; Health Care and Social Assistance; Arts, Entertainment and Recreation) sum exactly across the detail rows printed above them, and every row's components add to its "All C cases" and "All cases" figures, which supports the column assignment. Indentation of row labels (detail vs. subtotal) is not preserved in the grid; subtotal rows are the indented ones listed above. All cells were legible; no doubtful digits. The row label "Amusement, Gambling and Recreation Industries" ends with a two-dot leader run that was dropped along with the other leader dots.

p. 149. TYPESETTING DISPLACEMENT IN ROW 1 (Accommodation) — the single judgment call in this transcription. On the page, two of the Accommodation row's values are physically printed inside the header box, above the rule that separates the headings from the body: "584" sits in the header band beneath the "All cases" heading, and "0" sits in the header band beneath the "CD" heading. The Accommodation line itself therefore shows visible gaps in its "All cases" and "CD" cells. I have placed both values in the Accommodation row under their printed columns rather than leaving the row's cells empty or writing stray digits into header_rows, because the arithmetic identifies them unambiguously: the "Accommodation and Foodservices" subtotal of 1,034 less Foodservices 450 = 584, and the subtotal CD of 0 less Foodservices CD of 0 = 0. No digits were altered; only their row placement was resolved. A reader wanting strict ink-position fidelity should know these two cells are the exception. Column count: 17 (stub + All cases + 8 unfair-labor-practice columns + 4 representation columns + UD + AC + UC). The three rightmost headings are printed hyphenated across lines ("deauthor- ization", "Amend- ment of certifica- tion cases", "Unit clari- fication cases") and have been rejoined. The page is a "—Continued" sheet, so the industrial groups begin mid-list; the sector blocks shown are Accommodation and Foodservices, Other Services (except Public Administration), and Public Administration, each closed by its own indented subtotal line, followed by Unclassified Establishments and the grand total. ARITHMETIC CONSISTENCY: every row and every subtotal on this page was checked and all cross-foot and down-foot correctly, including the grand total (21,747+6,206+464+186+38+23+100 = 28,764; 3,712+130+803 = 4,645; 28,764+4,645+107+11+162 = 33,689). No misprints were found. This internal consistency is the main basis for the confidence given. No cells were illegible; the scan is a clean vector render.
