Likewise, the association may waive the appointment of a conservator for a beneficiary deemed mentally incompetent or otherwise unable by reason of age or illness to act without assistance, and may, from time to time, authorize and approve such payments to the person or institution having care of such beneficiary. The receipt of the person or institution so receiving such payments shall be a complete release and acquittance under this retirement plan with respect to such payments in all respects as if such payments had been made to a duly constituted guardian or conservator.
