James Francis "Frank" Murphy (12 March 189318 January 1949) was a senior Australian public servant, best known for his role as Secretary of the Department of Commerce (later Department of Commerce and Agriculture) in the 1930s and 1940s. ==Life and career== Frank Murphy was born in Carlton, Melbourne on 12 March 1893. In 1910, he joined the Commonwealth Public Service in the Department of External Affairs.〔 In 1933, Murphy was appointed as Assistant Secretary to the Department of Commerce—his promotion at the time was challenged by several other public servants who believed that they should win the role on the grounds that they had served for longer. From December 1934 when he was appointed to the position, until December 1942 when the Department was abolished, Murphy was Secretary of the Department of Commerce. He then was appointed Secretary of the Department of Commerce and Agriculture, between 1942 and 1945. Murphy died on 18 January 1949 in Balwyn, Melbourne.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Frank Murphy (public servant)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
