President Hoover pressed the button which lighted Washington's community Christmas tree just before he began his brief "Merry Christmas" radio address to Americans from coast to coast. Mrs. Hoover accompanied the President to the impressive Christmas program, which included music by the U.S. Marine band. 12/24/30
