When Sir Ted Lewis was facing bankruptcy in the 30s, he sold off his US Decca subsidiary in order to stay afloat. He kept the UK Decca company and label, but obviously could no longer use the Decca name in the US.
In the 50s, US Decca issued many Deutsche Gramophone recordings. That stopped when DG started importing its German pressings on the familiar yellow label in 1960.
