This article is a comparative study of university teachers' salary structure before the Second Sino-Japanese War. Teachers emerged as a major occupational group during the Republican period because of their growth in numbers. Their salary differentiations can be used as an indicator of the relative importance of education in the society. In the first section, the author presents a history of development of salary structures for university teachers. After an analysis of differentiating factors and special characteristics, the author concludes that the levels of salary for teachers depended heavily on sources of revenue in the universities. Their level of education and qualification were not major determining factors.
