Reader’s notes

p. 153. The crop is cut off at the bottom: the body ends mid-table at "National v. National v. National", so the 3-union subtotal line, any later sections (the table caption's "A. All representation elections" implies at least a section B), and the footnote texts are not on this image. Footnote markers are visible but their texts are not: a raised 1 on the caption and a raised 2 on the "Total elections" column heading (kept as "Total elections^2"); footnotes is therefore empty. Throughout the body the printer uses a short double-dash filler ("--") for not-applicable cells, distinct from a printed "0". Following the dash-rule convention these dash cells are transcribed as empty strings, while every printed 0 is kept as "0". Readers who need the distinction should note that the empty cells in the numeric columns all held a printed dash, not whitespace. The table has 14 printed columns. The three heading levels are: the spanner row ("Elections won by unions" over 5 columns; "Employees eligible to vote" over 5 columns), the "In units won by" spanner over the last three "Employees eligible to vote" columns, and the individual column labels. The tall headings "Participating unions", "Total elections^2", "Elections in which no representative chosen" and "In elections where no representative chosen" are repeated down all three levels; end-of-line hyphenation ("Elec- tions ... rep- resenta- tive") has been repaired. The row "AFL-CIO v. AFL-CIO v. National v. Local" wraps onto two printed lines and is joined into one label. All values were legible; no doubtful cells.

p. 154. Continuation page: no footnote texts are printed on this crop, although markers are referenced (a raised 1 on the caption and a raised 2 on the stub-side heading "Total elections", transcribed as "Total elections^2"). The crop carries no part-A section heading because the first three body rows finish the preceding section (part A) continued from the previous page; the section line "B. Elections in RC cases" is printed centred across the body with no values. Dash cells: many value cells hold a short double-hyphen rule ("--") rather than a number. Per the stated convention these are transcribed as "" (empty), while printed zeros are kept as "0". The distinction matters in several rows that contain both, e.g. "National v. National v. Local" (AFL-CIO unions "--" vs Other local unions "0") and "National v. Local v. Local" (Other national unions "0", Other local unions "47", AFL-CIO unions "--"). The table is cut off at the bottom of the crop: "National v. Local v. Local" sits on the last printed line visible, and the 3-or-more-union block of part B plus any part-B totals continue below. Row labels joined from wrapped lines: "National v. National v. National v. National" (printed over two lines). The first body row is set with extra inter-word space ("National v. National"); normalised to single spaces. Arithmetic checks pass on every internal total I could verify (1-union, 2-union and 3-or-more-union subtotals, and the won/eligible component columns), so no suspected misprints. "Total representation elections" could not be checked against this crop alone. All values appeared clearly legible.

p. 155. This is a continuation page: the body opens mid-way through section B (RC cases) — the earlier rows of the "3 (or more)-union elections" group and all preceding RC groups are on the previous page — and the crop is cut off part-way through section D (RD cases), so section D is incomplete and no "Total RD elections" row appears. Footnote markers are printed (superscript 1 on the caption year, superscript 2 on the "Total elections" heading) but no footnote text is printed on this crop, so `footnotes` is empty. Dash-rule cells ("--") throughout have been transcribed as "", as instructed; printed zeros are kept as 0. Two row labels wrap onto a second printed line and have been joined: "AFL-CIO v. AFL-CIO v. National v. Local" and "National v. National v. National v. National". The section lines "C. Elections in RM cases" and "D. Elections in RD cases" are centered across the full table width and carry no values. All printed internal sums check out (e.g., Total RC elections 1,063 + 683 = 1,746; 24,842 + 34,523 + 8,201 = 67,566); no misprints detected. Note the coincidence that the "Total" employees figure for the section C "AFL-CIO" row (1,510) equals the "In elections where no representative chosen" figure for the following "Other national unions" row (1,510); both were read carefully and are as printed.

p. 156. The crop is a continuation page ("— Continued"): the body begins mid-section with the "AFL-CIO" line of the 1-union elections block, so the rows above it (the section head and the other participating-union lines) are on the preceding page and are not in this image. No footnote text is printed below the table on this crop, although a superscript 1 appears on the caption and a superscript 2 on the "Total elections" heading; the footnote texts must be elsewhere. Short double-hyphen dashes ("--") are used throughout as a data value distinct from a printed "0" (both occur, sometimes in the same row, e.g. "National v. Local"), so they are transcribed as printed rather than treated as empty cells or dash rules. Row labels "1-union elections", "2-union elections" and "Total RD elections" are indented subtotal/total lines; a double rule separates the 1-union block from the 2-union block and precedes the total line. All cross-checks are consistent with the transcription as read: AFL-CIO 3,965+43=4,008; 1-union 3,965+7,631+699=12,295; 2-union 42+677+2,531=3,250 and 627+50+36+42+2,531=3,286; Total RD 4,007+8,308+3,230=15,545, 353+7=360 and 111+6=117. No doubtful or illegible cells.
