Government payrolls shrank by 18,000 during January, the first decline in six months, after rising 28,000 in December.

``This time it was government jobs that pulled down the total,'' said David Resler, chief U.S. economist at Nomura Securities International Inc. in New York.

The drop was led by a decrease in state education jobs, indicating less employment at schools.
