In [4], G. Takeuti cor1jectured that the cut-elimination theorem would hold in his system GLC as well as in LK. Many attempts to prove it constructively have not yet succeeded. On the other hand, W. Tait [3] proved the cutelimination theorem for the second order predicate logic by a non-constructive method. In this paper, we shall prove the cut-elimination theorem in simple type-theory also by a non-constructive method. Our proof will be formalizable in Zermelo’s set theory, which contains neither the axiom of replacement nor the axiom of choice1). The author wishes to express his thanks to Professor T. Nishimura, Mr. K. Namba and Mr. T. Uesu for their kind advice and assistance.
