Biography

During the war period David Murray worked as a Public Relations Officer initially for the Iron and Steel Federation many of whose functions were absorbed by the Iron and Steel Control of the Ministry of Supply. Following a transfer from London to Glasgow in 1940 he was concerned in organising campaigns for the salvage of railings, and scrap iron and steel. He left the ISC in the autumn of 1941 following policy disagreements with its management, but was soon re-employed by the Ministry of Supply as a Works Relations Officer in Scotland.
