Abstract
It is proved that all one-dimensional subalgebras of a locally finite-dimensional Lie algebra $L$ with countable basis over a perfect field of characteristic $\not= 2$ are complemented iff $L$ can be isomorphically embedded into a Cartesian sum of 3-dimensional simple Lie algebras of type~$A_{1}$. It is also shown that all one-dimensional subalgebras of a locally finite-dimensional Lie algebra $L$ over an arbitrary field of characteristic $p=2$ are complemented in $L$ iff $L$ is solvable and can be isomorphically embedded into a Cartesian sum of 2-dimensional non-abelian Lie algebras.
