Description

Note a change in terminology in the Chinese newspaper Shenbao from "kuailun" (快輪) - a term that placed the emphasis on the speed of this rather new means of transportation in 1924 - to "lunchuan" (輪船) - a more neutral term, which suggests that other means of transportation have emerged in the meantime and eventually surpassed steamship in 1934).
