He is a British solicitor from York that served as the National President of the British Chambers of Commerce from 1964-1965.  Seehttps://www.jciuk.org.uk/about-us/history-of-jci/jci-uks-past-national-presidents/.

See also, "Appointments and Board Changes," The Guardian (London, England), July 6, 1964, p. 17 (reporting his election). https://www.newspapers.com/image/259611261/?terms=raymond%20burn&match=1

He probably made a visit to South Africa on behalf of the organization.
