This document is dubious. The font is not a 1933 font, the signature does not appear to be that of Secretary Ogden, the Se. Of Treasury at the time, and the underscoring of "not" for emphasis, and referring to local banks for further explanation, are not typical of the time of government communication in the Depression wra.

This is a fake document.
