Arnow ordered the Escambia school system desegregated in 1969. In 1978 he drew up a special district to assure that the county commission would have at least one black member. In 1981 he sealed a settlement in a discrimination case, requiring the Air Force to establish a $2 million fund and Eglin Air Force Base to hire 100 black workers for its civilian labor force and promote others already on the payroll.
