On a paper by Karel Prikry concerning Ulam's problem on families of measures
We discuss the problem when ℵ₁ sets are contained in a σ-generated σ-field on some set X. This is related to a problem raised by K. P. S. Bhaskara Rao and Rae Michael Shortt [Dissertationes Math. 372 (1998)] which we answer. We also briefly discuss generating the family of all subsets from rectangles.
