'.. 1 Republicans considering airing freeze COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) ? The new lepublican majority in South Caroliia's House considers a government liring freeze and the merger of some itate colleges part of the debate about low to cut spending. House Ways and Means Chairman ienry Brown, R-Hanahan, said everything is on the table in talking about low to cut the state budget 5 percent, i top GOP goal in the House this year. Some two-year schools and technical :olleges could be eliminated, Brown laid, but he would not elaborate. Cutting the number of state emiloyees is also a goal, Brown and oth;r GOP leaders said. The number of itate employees has risen from 60,005 o 67,757 during the past eight years. "We can't cut back spending and ncrease the number of employees at he same time and have any long-term eduction," House Speaker David Wilkins said. Hie Legislature last year endorsed Tiring 747 more full-time employees ior the fiscal year that ends June 30. Hie prison system got the bulk of those, 184 employees. Lawmakers have had a hard time ^educing the state payroll, despite several attempts. Hie restructuring passed two years ago was supposed to make state govarnment more efficient, but Comptroller General Earle Morris said it added 1,750 new jobs. An earlv retirement incentive that was supposed to lure more employees off the state payroll has saved $4 million annually. But it will take years for the incentive to pay off because it cost $21.6 million to pay for the bonuses. About 90 percent of the 2,447 state employees who received the bonuses last year have been replaced, the State Retirement System reports. The new employees are being paid 85 percent of the retired employee's salary. The retirement system said 163 positions were eliminated. "Generally, there was no wholesale elimination of positions," the report said. In the decade since 1984, prisons, health and education areas acr 85 percent of the growth in the state's work force.
