Melville Clyde Kelly (August 4, 1883 – April 29, 1935) was an American politician and publisher who served as a Republican Party member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Pennsylvania.

During his tenure as Congressman, Clyde introduced a resolution to permit private contracting of airmail service.

This resolution, the Air Mail Act of 1925 was signed into law on February 2, 1925, prompting many companies to venture into the aviation field (e.g., Boeing, Douglas, and Pratt & Whitney).

He was accidentally shot while cleaning a rifle and died in a hospital at Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania.

Clyde was interred in Mahoning Union Cemetery, near Marchand, Pennsylvania.
