We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

394 \(\Rightarrow\) 38
given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication Reference
394 \(\Rightarrow\) 165 clear
165 \(\Rightarrow\) 32 clear
32 \(\Rightarrow\) 5 clear
5 \(\Rightarrow\) 38 Non-constructive properties of the real numbers, Howard, P. 2001, Math. Logic Quart.

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

Howard-Rubin Number Statement
394:

\(C(WO,LO)\): Every well ordered set of non-empty linearly orderable sets has a choice function.

165:

\(C(WO,WO)\):  Every well ordered family of non-empty, well orderable sets has a choice function.

32:

\(C(\aleph_0,\le\aleph_0)\): Every denumerable set of non-empty countable sets  has a choice function.

5:

\(C(\aleph_0,\aleph_0,\Bbb R)\): Every denumerable set of non-empty denumerable subsets of \({\Bbb R}\) has a choice function.

38:

\({\Bbb R}\) is not the union of a countable family of countable sets.
