(No. 604) <p>No details yet.</p> http://www.oyez.org/cases/1901-1939/1934/1934_604/ Humphrey's Executor v. United States (No. 667) <p>President Hoover appointed, and the Senate confirmed, Humphrey as a commissioner of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). In 1933, President Roosevelt asked for Humphrey's resignation since the latter was a conservative and had jurisdiction over many of Roosevelt's New Deal policies. When Humphrey refused to resign, Roosevelt fired him because of his policy positions. However, the FTC Act only allowed a president to remove a commissioner for "inefficiency, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office." Since Humphrey died shortly after being dismissed, his executor sued to recover Humphrey's lost salary.</p> http://www.oyez.org/cases/1901-1939/1934/1934_667/ Panama Refining Co. v.
