Axiom Of Choice

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

258 $\Rightarrow$ 339 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
258:	$Z(D,L)$: Every directed relation $(X,R)$ in which linearly ordered subsets have upper bounds, 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.
339:	Martin's Axiom $(\aleph_{0})$: Whenever $(P\le)$ is a non-empty, ccc quasi-order (ccc means every anti-chain is countable) and ${\cal D}$ is a family of $\le\aleph_0$ dense subsets of $P$, then there is a ${\cal D}$ generic filter $G$ in $P$.

Howard-Rubin Number	Statement
258:	\(Z(D,L)\): Every directed relation \((X,R)\) in which linearly ordered subsets have upper bounds, 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.
339:	Martin's Axiom \((\aleph_{0})\): Whenever \((P\le)\) is a non-empty, ccc quasi-order (ccc means every anti-chain is countable) and \({\cal D}\) is a family of \(\le\aleph_0\) dense subsets of \(P\), then there is a \({\cal D}\) generic filter \(G\) in \(P\).
