Axiom Of Choice

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

151 \(\Rightarrow\) 249 given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication	Reference
151 \(\Rightarrow\) 122	Russell's alternative to the axiom of choice, Howard, P. 1992, Z. Math. Logik Grundlagen Math. note-27
122 \(\Rightarrow\) 10	clear
10 \(\Rightarrow\) 249

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

Howard-Rubin Number	Statement
151:	\(UT(WO,\aleph_{0},WO)\) (\(U_{\aleph_{1}}\)): The union of a well ordered set of denumerable sets is well orderable. (If \(\kappa\) is a well ordered cardinal, see note 27 for \(UT(WO,\kappa,WO)\).)
122:	\(C(WO,<\aleph_{0})\): Every well ordered set of non-empty finite sets has a choice function.
10:	\(C(\aleph_{0},< \aleph_{0})\): Every denumerable family of non-empty finite sets has a choice function.
249:	If \(T\) is an infinite tree in which every element has exactly 2 immediate successors then \(T\) has an infinite branch.
