SUPREME COURT
It may be true, as claimed, that respondent has no certificate of public convenience exclusively for the line Vigan-Manila alone. However, there is no disputing the fact that respondent has a certificate for the line Aparri-Manila via Claveria and Vigan, and protection of this should extend to all of its parts, Respondent's right to protection as an established operator on the lines applied for is not to be defeated by mere priority in the filing of the application of the newcomer.Petitioner is not necessarily entitled to preference just because, as he alleges, it was his evidence, rather than respondent's, that established the fact that there was still need for additional service. Whose evidence it was that proved such need is not important. What is important is whose operation would best subserve the public interests. On that score we find no sufficient justification for not respecting the opinion of the Commission that the additional service in this case could best be operated by the respondent.
