We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

256 $\Rightarrow$ 78 given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

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

Howard-Rubin Number	Statement
256:	$Z(P,F)$: Every partially ordered set $(X,R)$ in which every forest $A$ has an upper bound, has a maximal element.
255:	$Z(D,R)$: Every directed relation $(P,R)$ in which every ramified subset $A$ has an upper bound, has a maximal element.
260:	$Z(TR\&C,P)$: If $(X,R)$ is a transitive and connected relation in which every partially ordered subset has an upper bound, then $(X,R)$ has a maximal element.
40:	$C(WO,\infty)$: Every well orderable set of non-empty sets has a choice function. Moore, G. [1982], p 325.
43:	$DC(\omega)$ (DC), Principle of Dependent Choices: If $S$ is a relation on a non-empty set $A$ and $(\forall x\in A) (\exists y\in A)(x S y)$ then there is a sequence $a(0), a(1), a(2), \ldots$ of elements of $A$ such that $(\forall n\in\omega)(a(n)\mathrel S a(n+1))$. See Tarski [1948], p 96, Levy [1964], p. 136.
78:	Urysohn's Lemma: If $A$ and $B$ are disjoint closed sets in a normal space $S$, then there is a continuous $f:S\rightarrow [0,1]$ which is 1 everywhere in $A$ and 0 everywhere in $B$. Urysohn [1925], pp 290-292.

Howard-Rubin Number	Statement
256:	\(Z(P,F)\): Every partially ordered set \((X,R)\) in which every forest \(A\) has an upper bound, has a maximal element.
255:	\(Z(D,R)\): Every directed relation \((P,R)\) in which every ramified subset \(A\) has an upper bound, has a maximal element.
260:	\(Z(TR\&C,P)\): If \((X,R)\) is a transitive and connected relation in which every partially ordered subset has an upper bound, then \((X,R)\) has a maximal element.
40:	\(C(WO,\infty)\): Every well orderable set of non-empty sets has a choice function. Moore, G. [1982], p 325.
43:	\(DC(\omega)\) (DC), Principle of Dependent Choices: If \(S\) is a relation on a non-empty set \(A\) and \((\forall x\in A) (\exists y\in A)(x S y)\) then there is a sequence \(a(0), a(1), a(2), \ldots\) of elements of \(A\) such that \((\forall n\in\omega)(a(n)\mathrel S a(n+1))\). See Tarski [1948], p 96, Levy [1964], p. 136.
78:	Urysohn's Lemma: If \(A\) and \(B\) are disjoint closed sets in a normal space \(S\), then there is a continuous \(f:S\rightarrow [0,1]\) which is 1 everywhere in \(A\) and 0 everywhere in \(B\). Urysohn [1925], pp 290-292.
