ISSUES DENIAL
ON GAS CO.
CONTROL
By HARRY GUSACK
Financial Editor

Denial that he was attempting to
buy control of the Washington Gas
Light Company for outside interests
was made today by D. A. Pearson,
New York financier.
Mr.. Pearson took issue with off.
cials of the gas light company who
expressed the opinion that control OF
the local company was sought by
midwestern for speculative purposes.
His statement follows:
Several months ago as the repre-
sentative of a small group of 1nves'
tors, of which / am one, ! undertook
to buy block of Washington Gas
Light Company stock, which was
then selling in the neighborheod OF
$50 a share.
''It was not our intention to buy
control, nor have we made any at.
tempt to do so. Mr.. Harley Clarke,
whose name has been mentioned, is
not one of my group, nor am con-
nected with Messrs. Pynchon q
Co.
Furthermore, would have it
distinctly understood that / have
not purchased this stock on behalf
of any holding company. Ny inter-
est in the management of the
corporation is merely that which
might be expected Of any other
stockhoIder. namely, that the com
pany should be managed with the
highest possible efficiency.
81 may add that my friends and
I, after careful investigation, placed
q certain valuation on Washington
Gas Light Company stock and set
that as the limit of the average
price we were willing to pay. The
fact that we accumulated most of
our stock at lower prices enabled
us to pay higher prices for certain
large blocks. The stock We now
own has already reached the aver
age valuation set by our experts.
We are investors and not specu-
iators,''

during September, reaching the
exact position they held one year
ago, according to statistics just
compiled by the Associated General
Contractors of America. The rise
Contractors of America. The rise
was the third in four months and
placed the average costs for the
first nine months OF this year
slightly above that recorded for
the corresponding period of 1927.
The most recent increase is at
tributed to higher prices com.
Inanded by basic construction ma
teriaIs and to an increase in the
average wages. The average OF
material prices assumed the highest
position it has occupied since the
early months of 1925. reaching a
plane in strong contrast to the
comparatively low one it held
earlier this year.
The increase in the average OF
wages was the first to be noted
since February of last year. Only
four other increases and four de
creases have been registered since
midsummer of 1924, the indication
being that a remarkable stability
has prevailed.
The average of the combined costs
of construction materials and wages
opened the current year on a plane
virtually twice as high as that
which it occupied Is years ago. II
dropped slightly during March, hold
ing the lower level until June, wher
the first of a succession of small
increases appeared.

Of combined construction costs fo
