The Treasury says starting next month beneficiaries with bank accounts may receive benefits via electronic transfer even if they still want checks by mail. About 61 percent of 43 million recipients already use direct deposit, while those without banks will keep paper checks for now. The move aims to save about $500 million over five years and reduce check theft and forgery by about 100,000 annually. Senior groups praise the measure highlighting increased convenience and security. The program will expand to all federal payments by 1999.
