Letters To Thank you, To the editor: We are writing this letter to express our appreciation to the voters of Umatilla and Morrow counties for the continued support of the college. The margin of victory was very narrow and we realize that we owe our successful budget election to the many volunteers who helped tell our story to the voters. Many residents of the college district donated both time and money to assist in the election campaign. With out their help we would not have been successful in pas sing the college levy. We are especially apprecia tive of the positive vote in Morrow County. We realize that due to the distance involved. Morrow County resi dents are not able to take advantage of the many oppor tunities the college provides. We can assure you that the college will make every effort to provide classes locally when it is economically feas ible to do so. The close vote on the college budget and the defeat of other area budgets is a clear indication that voters expect education, and other local taxing districts, to reduce Support Densmore To the editor: All Densmore. mayor of Medford. is a Democrat candi date for U.S. Congress from the Second District.

Approval of the college budget does not alter the fact that the college, like other taxing districts, needs to review all budget items and make an effort to reduce existing costs where ever possible. The college understands the message the voters gave us on March 30 and we are starting now to again review the entire budget to see if some addition al savings can be realized in the budget that has already received voter approval for 1982-83. We already know that we must reduce expenditures by another $23,515 to match the most recent reduction in state funding. Again, we want to thank the Morrow County residents for their show of support.
