We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

344 \(\Rightarrow\) 142
given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication Reference
344 \(\Rightarrow\) 62 clear
62 \(\Rightarrow\) 61 clear
61 \(\Rightarrow\) 88 clear
88 \(\Rightarrow\) 142 The Axiom of Choice, Jech, 1973b, page 7 problem 11

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

Howard-Rubin Number Statement
344:

If \((E_i)_{i\in I}\) is a family of non-empty sets, then there is a family \((U_i)_{i\in I}\) such that \(\forall i\in I\), \(U_i\) is an ultrafilter on \(E_i\).

62:

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

61:

\((\forall n\in\omega, n\ge 2\))\((C(\infty,n))\): For each \(n\in\omega\), \(n\ge 2\), every set of \(n\) element  sets has a choice function.

88:

  \(C(\infty ,2)\):  Every family of pairs has a choice function.

142:

\(\neg  PB\):  There is a set of reals without the property of Baire.  Jech [1973b], p. 7.
