		By the late 1930s, Brown Brothers Harriman, which claimed to be the world's largest private investment bank, and UBC had bought and shipped millions of dollars of gold, fuel, steel, coal and US treasury bonds to Germany, both feeding and financing Hitler's build-up to war.

		Harriman had chosen to build his ski area smack in the middle of one of the truely great trout-fishing regions God had ever created.
		No doubt Harriman had been apprised of the fabulous fishing sometime during the acquisition and construction period in 1936, but there is no indication that the fishing had any bearing at all on the final decision to put the resort where he did.

	Words and Deeds in American History - Diplomacy and Foreign Policy - (American Memory from the Library of Congress)
		The Harriman Papers comprise one of the richest collections of primary source material on modern American foreign policy.
		Harriman served as director of Lend-Lease in Great Britain (1941-43), ambassador to the Soviet Union (1943-46), coordinator of the Marshall Plan (1948-50), United States negotiator for the Test Ban Treaty (1963), and American representative at the Paris peace talks with North Vietnam (1968-69).
		There is no better place to understand the development of the Cold War than in Harriman's papers, where one can follow the shift in his opinion from an initial view that American and Soviet goals were compatible to his 1945 warning that "we must find ways to arrest the Soviet domineering policy."1

		At the same time Bush and the Harrimans were profiting from their Nazi partnerships, W. Averell Harriman was serving as President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's personal emissary to the United Kingdom during the toughest years of the war.

		Brown Brothers Harriman, where Prescott Bush and the Harrimans were partners, attempted to convince government investigators that the baroness had been a victim of Nazi persecution and therefore should be allowed to maintain her assets.

	[R-G] The Indiscreet Charm of the Bush-Nazi Web Conspiranoids
		As described by Isaacson and Thomas, the directors of Harriman Bank (Prescott Bush included) were less crypto- Nazi ideologues than characters out of The Great Gatsby, '20s wild kids thumbing their noses at such fuddy- duddy traditions as national borders and political moralism.
		It's clear Harriman, Bush, Dulles and legions of the financial elite share a degree of (largely unacknowledged) responsibility for providing Hitler and the Nazis the wherewithal to launch World War Two and the Holocaust.
		However, it's an untenable leap to conclude that this banking elite exerted some sort of secret nefarious control over events of the 1930s, or that the rise of Nazism was not an unintended consequence of their own far shorter-sighted intentions.
