25 Broadway, Cunard Building shown center on postcard reproduction below. Shadow on right is 26 Broadway, Standard Oil headquarters. During WWI this building housed the Executive Committee running day-to-day operations of Remington Arms under Rockefeller-man Samuel F. Pryor. Remington formally moved it's corporate offices here before 1921. Not shown, just off the bend to the right behind Standard Oil's evil shadow was 39 Broadway, where Prescott Bush was co-director with Samuel Pryor on multiple Nazi business boards of directors.

Her sinking with the loss of almost 1,200 lives caused such outrage that it propelled the U.S. into the First World War. But now divers have revealed a dark secret about the cargo carried by the Lusitania on its final journey in May 1915.Munitions they found in the hold suggest that the Germans had been right all along in claiming the ship was carrying war materials and was a legitimate military target...

Remington Arms in Cunard Lusitania cargo hold.
...The diving team estimates that around four million rounds of U.S.-manufactured Remington .303 bullets lie in the Lusitania's hold at a depth of 300ft...
...
Gregg Bemis, an American businessman who owns the rights to the wreck and is funding its exploration, said: 'Those four million rounds of .303s were not just some private hunter's stash.
'Now that we've found it, the British can't deny any more that there was ammunition on board. That raises the question of what else was on board.
'There were literally tons and tons of stuff stored in unrefrigerated cargo holds that were dubiously marked cheese, butter and oysters.
'I've always felt there were some significant high explosives in the holds - shells, powder, gun cotton - that were set off by the torpedo and the inflow of water. That's what sank the ship.'
Mr Bemis is planning to commission further dives next year in a full-scale forensic examination of the wreck off County Cork.
Samuel F. Pryor, Jr., Chairman of Executive Committee of Remington Arms during the Rockefeller-takeover period.
This man followed the Percy Rockefeller orders that filled Cunard S.S. Lusitania with Remington Arms, at least 4,000 rounds of UMC Remington .303 rounds have been located in the Lusitania wreck. Remington Directors at times included: Percy Rockefeller, Samuel Pryor, Matthew Brush.
Pryor was director of W. A. HARRIMAN AND COMPANY (ALSO W. A HARRIMAN SECURITIES CORPORATION) which included these other directors: Percy Rockefeller, W. Averril Harriman, E. Roland Harriman, George Herbert Walker, Matthew Brush.
Samuel Pryor was Director of UNION BANKING CORPORATION, Fritz Thyssen Nazi-owned NYC bank along with directors George Herbert Walker, Prescott Bush. Both Walker and Bush gave their names to two future US presidents.
Additionally, Samuel F. Pryor, Jr., was director of AMERICAN SHIP AND COMMERCE CORPORATION (SHIPPING, HAMBURG-AMERIKA), with W. Averill Harriman, George Herbert Walker. The Hamburg-Amerika line made regular trips with contingents of Adolph Hitler's personal bodyguards on board escorting high-value gold bullion shipments and bringing into the US "world without end" tons of nazi propaganda for US distribution.
China used by Hitler's bodyguard for sale
A china dinner set used by Hitler's bodyguard on transatlantic crossings in the 1930s is expected to fetch up to £1,000 at auction. The plates carry the letters LAH, for Leibstand arte-SS Adolf Hitler, Hitler's most trusted bodyguard unit. The guards would travel incognito on the Hamburg-America Line.
[Hitler never visited America, never traveled on the Hamburg-America shipping line directed by two Bush elders, so some other exceptional high-value objects were transported regularly enough that dinnerware was kept for Hitler's bodyguard's regular use.]
Sam Pryor was at the center of it, involved in Arms, involved in Hitler shipping, involved in Hitler financier Fritz Thyssen's NYC bank, involved in importing nazi propaganda and sinking the Lusitania.
Across the street was Percy Rockefeller at 26 Broadway, and just down the block at 1 Wall Street was George Herbert Walker, while next door 39 Broadway was Averell Harriman and Prescott Bush.
