PER CURIAM.


1
Petitioner applied for a radio frequency for a one-way coded message paging service.  After a comparative hearing, the trial examiner recommended an award of the frequency to the petitioner.  In so doing he relied upon petitioner's lower rates and the increased competition which would result from his selection. The Commission rejected the examiner's recommendation and awarded the frequency to the intervenor, who offers transmission of literal rather than coded messages.  In the Commission's view the advantages of the type of service proposed by intervenor outweighed the other considerations.  'The choice between the applicants had to be and was made after comparison of all pertinent factors * * *.  We cannot find that the Commission's decision was arbitrary, capricious or unsupported by substantial evidence.'  McClatchy Broadcasting Co. v. F.C.C., 1956, 99 U.S.App.D.C. 195, 199, 239 F.2d 15, 19, certiorari denied Sacramento Telecasters, Inc., v. McClatchy Broadcasting Co., 1957, 353 U.S. 918, 77 S.Ct. 662, 1 L.Ed.2d 665.
