Hypothesis: HR 165:

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

Conclusion: HR 57:

If \(x\) and \(y\) are Dedekind finite sets then either \(|x|\le |y|\) or \(|y|\le |x|\).
Mathias [1979], p 125.

List of models where hypothesis is true and the conclusion is false:

Name Statement
\(\cal N1\) The Basic Fraenkel Model The set of atoms, \(A\) is denumerable; \(\cal G\) is the group of all permutations on \(A\); and \(S\) isthe set of all finite subsets of \(A\)
\(\cal N24\) Hickman's Model I This model is a variation of \(\cal N2\)
\(\cal N24(n)\) An extension of \(\cal N24\) to \(n\)-element sets, \(n>1\).\(A=\bigcup B\), where \( B=\{b_i: i\in\omega\}\) is a pairwise disjoint setof \(n\)-element sets \(\cal G\) is the group of all permutations of \(A\)which are permutations of \(B\); and \(S\) is the set of all finite subsets of\(A\)
\(\cal N26\) Brunner/Pincus Model, a variation of \(\cal N2\) The set ofatoms \(A=\bigcup_{n\in\omega} P_n\), where the \(P_n\)'s are pairwisedisjoint denumerable sets; \(\cal G\) is the set of all permutations\(\sigma\) on \(A\) such that \(\sigma(P_n)=P_n\), for all \(n\in\omega\); and \(S\)is the set of all finite subsets of \(A\)
