1931, W.A. Harriman & Company merged with the British-American banking house Brown Brothers which included Percy Rockefeller (Skull and Bones) and Robert A. Lovett (S&B 1918), Secretary of Defense under President Harry S. Truman (Freemason). Prescott Bush [S&B1917], along with W. Averell Harriman (S&B 1913), E. Roland Harriman (S&B 1917)and George Herbert Walker, became managing partners in the new company, Brown Brothers Harriman. This was to develop into the most important private banking house in America.

Fritz Thyssen was also one of the leading backers of the Nazi Party. [2]

1931, Thyseen recruited Hjalmar Schacht to the cause and in November, 1932, the two men joined with other industrialists in signing the letter that urged Paul von Hindenburg to appoint Adolf Hitler as chancellor. This was successful and on 20th February, 1933, they arranged a meeting of the Association of German Industrialists that raised 3 million marks for the Nazi Party in the forthcoming election.[2] Prescott Bush [S&B 1917] was appointed as a director of the Harriman Fifteen Corporation. This in turn controlled the Consolidated Silesian Steel Corporation, that owned one-third of a complex of steel-making, coal-mining and zinc-mining activities in Germany and Poland. Friedrich Flick owned the other two-thirds of the operation. Flick was a leading financial supporter of the Nazi Party and in the 1930s donated over seven million marks to the party. A close friend of Heinrich Himmler, Flick also gave the Schutz Staffeinel (SS) 10,000 marks a year.[2]

1928, Thyssen formed United Steelworks, a company that controlled more that 75 per cent of Germany’s ore reserves and employed 200,000 people. Thyssen started a joint-venture with Harriman [S&B 1913] called the Union Banking Corporation. This was used to transfer funds between the United States and Germany. [2]

1927, the company was criticized for its support of totalitarian governments in Italy and the Soviet Union. George Herbert Walker wrote to W. Averell Harriman [S&B1913] pointing out that “the suggestion… that we withdraw from Russia smacks some what of the impertinent.. I think that we have drawn our line and should hew to it” (11th August, 1927).[2]

1926, Harriman [S&B1913] and Clarence Dillon [classmates of three Rockefellers] of Dillon Read Company helped Thyssen and Friedrich Flick to establish the German Steel Trust. According to Anton Chaitkin: “The Flick-Harriman partnership was directly supervised by Prescott Bush [S&B1917]“. Dillon Read provided two representatives to the board of the German Steel Trust and took responsibility for its corporate banking.[2]

1926, Prescott Bush [S&B 1917] became vice president of W. A. Harriman & Company. Soon afterwards the company expanded into the Soviet Union. After negotiations with Leon Trotsky and Felix Dzerzhinsky, Harriman obtained a contract to mine manganese. [2]
