Exhibit "A" One Dead Man. As a warning to evil doers, the policemen of Albania, exhibit all the dead men they bring in from the mountain raids. "Thieve's Stone" the official name of the slab on which these bodies are laid, is directly across the street from an American Red Cross relief station from which astonished Americans for the first time viewed this unusual custom. Standing behind the dead man is the policeman who did the fatal shooting. The dead man, it is all-aged, had committed a series of daring robberies in the mountains
