LEWIS, Circuit Judge
(dissenting).
I must dissent. The impact of the majority decision is a remand to the Federal Power Commission for the purpose of ordering El Paso to refurid to Phillips some $26,000. But El Paso is not a party to our action and our review is of an order of the Commission. To me, the reasoning of the majority is self-denying for it both assumes and denies that the order of the Commission is the factor that authorizes, effectuates and determines the amount of the refund. I agree with the analysis set forth in the Commission Order of June 10, 1964 and quoted in my Brother Seth’s opinion.
