We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

71-alpha \(\Rightarrow\) 390
given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication Reference
71-alpha \(\Rightarrow\) 9 clear
9 \(\Rightarrow\) 64 The independence of various definitions of finiteness, Levy, A. 1958, Fund. Math.
clear
64 \(\Rightarrow\) 390 clear

Here are the links and statements of the form equivalence classes referenced above:

Howard-Rubin Number Statement
71-alpha:  

\(W_{\aleph_{\alpha}}\): \((\forall x)(|x|\le\aleph_{\alpha }\) or \(|x|\ge \aleph_{\alpha})\). Jech [1973b], page 119.

9:

Finite \(\Leftrightarrow\) Dedekind finite: \(W_{\aleph_{0}}\) Jech [1973b]: \(E(I,IV)\) Howard/Yorke [1989]): Every Dedekind finite set is finite.

64:

\(E(I,Ia)\) There are no amorphous sets. (Equivalently, every infinite set is the union of two disjoint infinite sets.)

390:

Every infinite set can be partitioned either into two infinite sets or infinitely many sets, each of which has at least two elements. Ash [1983].
