## Opinion text

DISSENTING OPINION
JONES, Circuit Judge.
So far as I am aware, no serious contention has been made that Petroleum Carrier Corporation is unwilling or unable to furnish adequate service under its certificate of public convenience and necessity. The fact that one or more shippers would prefer to have more carriers qualified is not, in my opinion, adequate justification for a determination that certificates should be granted to other lines.
