1,288 of 1,298 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out.
p. 130. 15 columns: stub, "Total elections", four columns under "Number of elections in which representation rights were won by unions", "Number of elections in which no representative was chosen", "Number of employees eligible to vote", "Total valid votes cast", four columns under "Valid votes cast for unions", "Total votes for no union", and "Eligible employees in units choosing representation". The caption reads "Page 1 of 5", and the crop ends at "Printing and Related Support Activities"; the table continues on the following page. No footnote text is printed under the table on this page, although the stub heading carries a superscript 1 marker (its text presumably appears at the end of the 5-page table). Indented rows that are group subtotals ("Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing, and Hunting"; "Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction"; "Utilities"; "Construction"; "31-Manufacturing") are transcribed in the stub exactly as printed, without the indentation; heavier rules set them off in the image. "Utilities" is both a sector line and its own single-industry total. Possible misprint as printed: for "Oil and Gas Extraction" the "Total valid votes cast" (144) exceeds "Number of employees eligible to vote" (142); transcribed as printed. Every other row and every subtotal checks out internally (union total = AFL-CIO + other national + other local; total valid votes = votes for unions + votes for no union; subtotals = sums of their component rows). The heading "AFL-CIO" is printed with an en dash and broken across lines as "AFL-/CIO"; it is joined with a plain hyphen here.
p. 131. 15 columns, two heading levels. The stub heading carries a raised "1" ("Industrial Group^1"), but no footnote text is printed on this page (the table runs "Page 2 of 5"), so `footnotes` is empty. Typesetting quirk: in the "Plastics and Rubber Products Manufacturing" row the last column's value, 516, is set one line higher than the rest of that row's figures (level with the label's first line, in the blank space above the Nonmetallic row's 282). It is the only unassigned value in that column and belongs to the Plastics and Rubber Products row; I have placed it there. The crop is a continuation page: it begins mid-section (no "Manufacturing" group header above the first row) and ends at "Food and Beverage Stores" with the table continuing onto the next page. Consequently the "32-Manufacturing" subtotal (109; 7,063 eligible) exceeds the sum of the four 32- rows printed here (75 elections; 5,973 eligible) because the earlier NAICS 32 industries (paper, printing, etc.) appear on the previous page. This is expected, not a misprint. The "33-Manufacturing" and "Wholesale Trade" subtotals do foot to the rows printed above them. Thin double rules separate each subtotal from the next section; they carry no text. Subtotal labels are printed indented ("32-Manufacturing", "33-Manufacturing", "Wholesale Trade"); indentation is not preserved in the cell text.
p. 132. The crop is page 3 of 5 of a table continued from earlier and later pages, so it begins and ends mid-list; the first rows (Health and Personal Care Stores, Gasoline Stations, Clothing and Clothing Accessories Stores) belong to the 44-Retail Trade group whose earlier members are on the preceding page, and the Information-sector rows at the bottom have no subtotal line on this crop. The stub heading carries a superscript 1, but no footnote text is printed within the crop, so `footnotes` is empty. Typesetting quirk: in the "Motion Picture and Sound Recording Industries" row the last column's value, 19, is printed one line higher (level with the first line of the two-line row label) than the rest of that row's figures; it is transcribed as that row's value for "Eligible employees in units choosing representation". Apparent oddities, transcribed exactly as printed and not corrected: "Rail Transportation" shows 20 employees eligible to vote but 30 total valid votes cast; "Sporting Goods, Hobby, Book, and Music Stores" shows 5 eligible but 7 valid votes cast. In both rows the internal vote splits do add to the printed totals (6+5=11, 11+19=30; 3+2=5, 5+2=7), so the discrepancy is between the eligible-to-vote column and the votes-cast columns. Two consecutive subtotal rows are both labelled "Retail Trade" (44- and 45-) and two more are both labelled "Transportation and Warehousing" (48- and 49-); this is as printed (NAICS sector codes). All four subtotals, and all column cross-sums within rows, check out arithmetically against the rows shown, which supports the column assignment. The AFL-CIO heading is printed with an en dash broken across lines ("AFL-" / "CIO") and is joined here as "AFL-CIO unions".
p. 133. The crop ends immediately below the "Museums, Historical Sites, and Similar Institutions" row, so the table continues past the bottom of this image and no footnote text is visible; the stub heading carries a raised "1" marker whose footnote is not printed on this crop. Column 0 heading "Industrial Group^1" and the tall single headings ("Total elections", "Number of elections in which no representative was chosen", "Number of employees eligible to vote", "Total valid votes cast", "Total votes for no union", "Eligible employees in units choosing representation") span both heading levels and are repeated in each. The last column heading is printed hyphenated across lines as "Eligible employ-ees in units choos-ing rep-resentati on"; it is joined here as "Eligible employees in units choosing representation". The row label "Monetary Authorities– Central Bank" is printed with an en dash followed by a space, as transcribed. Indentation distinguishes subtotal lines (Finance and Insurance; Real Estate and Rental and Leasing; Administrative and Support and Waste Management and Remediation Services; Health Care and Social Assistance) from their component industries; indentation is not preserved in the cell text. All internal arithmetic checks (union component columns summing to the union total, union total plus no-union votes equalling total valid votes cast, and subtotals equalling their components) are consistent as transcribed.
p. 134. 15 columns: stub plus 14 numeric columns. All cells are legible; no blank or doubtful cells. Structure: indented rows ("Arts, Entertainment, and Recreation", "Accommodation and Food Services", "Other Services (except Public Administration)", "Public Administration") are sector subtotals printed after their component industry rows; indentation is not represented in the grid. "Arts, Entertainment, and Recreation" (34 elections) exceeds the single component row shown here (21), because this is page 5 of 5 and that sector's earlier component rows are on the preceding page. The stub heading carries footnote marker 1 ("Industrial Group^1"), but no footnote text is printed on this crop — it presumably appears on an earlier page of the table. Printed oddity transcribed as-is: "Administration of Economic Programs" shows 1 election won by a union (Other national unions = 1) with Total valid votes cast = 0 and all vote columns = 0, while Number of employees eligible to vote = 10 and Eligible employees in units choosing representation = 10. Arithmetic checks pass throughout (component columns sum to their "Total" columns, sector rows sum from their components, and the grand-total row is consistent), which supports the column assignments. The dash in the "AFL-CIO unions" headings is set as an en dash in the original; written here with a plain hyphen. The last column heading is hyphen-broken across lines as "Eligible employ-ees in units choos-ing rep-resentati on" and has been rejoined to "Eligible employees in units choosing representation".
