Who helped which side?

The United Nations is asking its members to help South KoreaWhat should the US do?What is a letter to the editor?A letter to the editor is a letter sent to a publication (newspaper, magazine, etc.) about issues of concern from its readers. While every letter may not be published, editors pay attention to well-written letters, especially when there are many about one topic. Your letter can be positive, negative or informative in tone. It can also be emotional or objective. It should reflect your true opinions.

An example letterDear Editor,The big jump in the cost of heating a house has me concerned. I just got my utility bill in the mail, and I was shocked. Even though the weather has been mild, this bill was as high as any I have seen. Im worried that some of my friends wont be able to pay their bills when it gets really cold. If Im not lucky, I may not be able to pay my bill. I want to praise our elected officials for having the courage to try to do something about this problem when other cities and the state government wont because theyre afraid of politics. The life-line utility program is a good idea whose time has come. Its getting cold now. We cant afford to wait for every legal opinion in the state. I believe the city should act before its too late.Sincerely,Tom Seekins1400 New YorkAnytown, USA 04521
