We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

427 \(\Rightarrow\) 419
given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication Reference
427 \(\Rightarrow\) 67 clear
67 \(\Rightarrow\) 381 Disjoint unions of topological spaces and choice, Howard, P. 1998b, Math. Logic Quart.
381 \(\Rightarrow\) 418 Metric spaces and the axiom of choice, De-la-Cruz-Hall-Howard-Keremedis-Rubin-2002A[2002A], Math. Logic Quart.
418 \(\Rightarrow\) 419 Metric spaces and the axiom of choice, De-la-Cruz-Hall-Howard-Keremedis-Rubin-2002A[2002A], Math. Logic Quart.

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

Howard-Rubin Number Statement
427: \(\exists F\) AL20(\(F\)): There is a field \(F\) such that every vector space \(V\) over \(F\) has the property that every independent subset of \(V\) can be extended to a basis.  \ac{Bleicher} \cite{1964}, \ac{Rubin, H.\/Rubin, J \cite{1985, p.119, AL20}.
67:

\(MC(\infty,\infty)\) \((MC)\), The Axiom of Multiple Choice: For every set \(M\) of non-empty sets there is a function \(f\) such that \((\forall x\in M)(\emptyset\neq f(x)\subseteq x\) and \(f(x)\) is finite).

381:

DUM:  The disjoint union of metrizable spaces is metrizable.

418:

DUM(\(\aleph_0\)): The countable disjoint union of metrizable spaces is metrizable.

419:

UT(\(\aleph_0\),cuf,cuf): The union of a denumerable set of cuf sets is cuf. (A set is cuf if it is a countable union of finite sets.)
