PER CURIAM.

Appellant, a motor carrier competing with the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, sought an injunction to restrain the Postmaster General from issuing a postage stamp .in commemoration of the 125th anniversary of the Railroad’s incorporation. The District Court rightly dismissed the complaint. “It is by now clear that neither damage nor loss of income in consequence of the action of Government, which is not an invasion of recognized legal rights, is in itself a source of legal rights in the absence of constitutional legislation recognizing it as such.” Perkins v. Lukens Steel Co., 310 U.S. 113, 125, 60 S.Ct. 869, 875, 84 L.Ed. 1108.

Affirmed.
