We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

50 \(\Rightarrow\) 178-n-N
given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

14 \(\Rightarrow\) 49 A survey of recent results in set theory, Mathias, A.R.D. 1979, Period. Math. Hungar.
49 \(\Rightarrow\) 30 clear

62 \(\Rightarrow\) 178-n-N clear

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

Howard-Rubin Number Statement
50:

Sikorski's  Extension Theorem: Every homomorphism of a subalgebra \(B\) of a Boolean algebra \(A\) into a complete Boolean algebra \(B'\) can be extended to a homomorphism of \(A\) into \(B'\). Sikorski [1964], p. 141.

14:

BPI: Every Boolean algebra has a prime ideal.

49:

Order Extension Principle: Every partial ordering can be extended to a linear ordering.  Tarski [1924], p 78.

30:

Ordering Principle: Every set can be linearly ordered.

62:

\(C(\infty,< \aleph_{0})\):  Every set of non-empty finite  sets  has  a choice function.

178-n-N:

If  \(n\in\omega\), \(n\ge 2\) and \(N \subseteq \{ 1, 2, \ldots , n-1 \}\), \(N \neq\emptyset\), \(MC(\infty,n, N)\):  If \(X\) is any set of \(n\)-element sets then  there is  a function \(f\) with domain \(X\) such that for all \(A\in X\), \(f(A)\subseteq A\) and \(|f(A)|\in N\).
