The following interesting result (Theorem 2) closes a surprising gap in a well-investigated field [cf. \textit{P. Howard} and \textit{J. E. Rubin}: Consequences of the axiom of choice (1998; Zbl 0947.03001)]: Without the axiom of choice, AC, the assertion ``\(2^\mathbb{R}\) is compact implies a weak form of AC: ``Every family of unordered pairs of subsets of \(\mathbb{R}\) has a choice function. (This axiom is false in the second Cohen model.) Reviewer's remark: Theorem 4 \((2^m\) is compact if \(m\) is wellorderable) is a special case of Loeb's theorem [\textit{P. A. Loeb}, Am. Math. Mon. 72, 711-717 (1965; Zbl 0146.18404)].
