Fluid milk, the product which pays taxes and the feed bill for Maine dairy farmers, may soon have a more active competitor with a new “Fresh Process” evaporated milk process recently perfected by Foremost Diaries Inc.

The Androscoggin Comprehensive Training (ACT) Program is taking “affirmative action” to correct some of the existing imbalances in employment opportunities in Androscoggin County.

In keeping with directives from the U.S. Department of Labor to all deliveries of funds authorized by the Comprehensive Employment Training Act (CETA) for fiscal year 1981, a conscious effort is being made to enhance the job opportunities of minority populations and to eliminate sex stereotyping in employment.

Populations which have traditionally been discriminated against, such as the handicapped, veterans, older workers and youths, will be among those ACT will focus on in helping them find jobs.
