From "Reagan's War," pg 11:

"By taking the assignement, Reagan was stepping foresquare into the middle of a testy labor dispute.....After one take at a beach scene, Regan was summoned to the telephone. When he picked up the receiver, a voice he didn't recognize threatened to see to it thathe never made films again. If he continued to oppose the CSU strike, the caller said, "a squad" would disfigure his face with acid."

"The communist party had been active in Hollywood since 1935, when a secret directive was issued by CPUSA (Communist Party of the U.S.A) headquarters in New YOurk calling for the capture of Hollywood's labor unions. The party believed that by doing this, they could influence the type of pictures produced./ The directive also instructed party memebers to take leadership positions in the so-called intellectual groups in Hollywood, which were composed of directors, writers, and performers"
