Abstract
In 1959 M. Dummett [3] introduced the logic LC obtained by adding the axiom ACpqCqp to the formalization of the intuitionistic prepositional calculus having modus ponens and substitution as its rules of inference. Later on R. A. Bull [1] showed, by quite a roundabout way, that the implicational theses of LC were precisely the theses of the implicational calculus obtained by adding the axiom CCCpqrCCCqprr to the system of positive implication. In 1964 Bull [2] gave another proof, this time using results of Birkhoff concerning subdirectly reducible algebras.The aim of this short note is to emphasize that the use of Gentzen's natural deduction systems (see Prawitz [4]) allows us to give a much more direct proof.
