Abstract
Before July of 1935, pamphlets of the American Communist Party demanded the overthrow of capitalism in dogmatic and distorted language. Consequently, they were not adapted well to the non‐communist public. Pamphlets published after July of 1935 attempted to overcome negative impressions of communism, but they were largely unsuccessful.Keywords
