标 题: 再问：中国第一艘远洋万吨轮是何时建造？
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Mon Oct 20 09:16:31 2014, 美东)
是1920年，江南造船厂的前身——江南造船所，就造出了中国第一艘万吨轮，而且还不
只是一艘，而是美国政府订造的四艘：“官府”号（Mandarin）于1920年6月3日下水；
“天朝”号（Celestial）于1920年8月3日下水；“东方”号（Oriental）于1921年2月
23日下水；“震旦”号（Cathay）于1921年5月26日下水，四艘船的规格均为载重量
10000吨、排水量14750吨。据《江南造船所纪要》称：“船壳、锅炉、烟箱等由富有经
验之匠目甘（火肃）初、李庆祥等包工承造，木作工程由何祖康、庆瑶等包工承造，机
器、轮轴等件由本所机器厂制造。”这四艘船完工后均开赴美国交付，直至二战时仍在
美欧航线上使用。
1958年，全部由苏联设计提供设备的跃进号过去一直号称是中国第一艘万吨轮，文革中
更是称中国过去连火柴都不会
造如今能造万吨轮，以证明毛主席多伟大，如今学乖了，只是说是“新中国”第一艘万
吨轮

In 1918 the U. S. Government contracted with the Chinese Government to have
four 10,000 ton ships built by the Kiangnan Dock & Engineering Works, in
Shanghai. All the material used in these ships was purchased in the United
States and shipped to China. Mr. Corbaley was employed by the Robert
Dollar Company in their New York Office; his job being to secure this
material and supervise its shipment to China.
The sterling character of Captain Robert Dollar, and the high regard with
which he was held in China, was brought to Corbaley’s attention by an
incident which happened at that time. While the contract for these four
ships was being negotiated, Honorable Wellington Koo, Chinese Ambassador to
the United States, called on Edward N. Hurley, President of the United
States Shipping Board, and saidto him: “You can turn the money over to
Captain Dollar as our depositary, When we complete the contracts, he will
then turn the money over to the Chinese Government.” “Very well,” replied
Mr. Hurley, “but thirty million dollars – how about Captain Dollar’s
bond?” “Bond! exclaimed Ambassador Koo, “he doesn’t need any bond or
agreement so far as the Government of China is concerned. I have a cable
from the President of China instructing me to take neither bond or contract
” That cable was attached to the contract and Captain Dollar handled the
thirty million dollars without a bond being required by either Government.
Early in 1919 Mr. Corbaley was sent to China to supervise the completion of
the four ships. They were named: CATHAY, CELESTIAL, ORIENTAL and MANDARIN.
A few years after WWI, in 1922, The Robert Dollar Co. bought these four
ships from the US Shipping Board and renamed them the Dianna Dollar,
Margaret Dollar, Melville Dollar and Stuart Dollar.
The Dianna Dollar was the first American freighter of the Dollar Line to be
placed in the Around-the-World service. In fact the Diana Dollar was the
first privately owned United States freighter to ever engage in around the
world service. | x*****g
