Summary:
It is proved that if $G$ is a pure $p^{\omega + n}$-projective subgroup of the separable abelian $p$-group $A$ for $n\in {N}\cup \lbrace 0\rbrace$ such that $|A/G|\le \aleph _0$, then $A$ is $p^{\omega +n}$-projective as well. This generalizes results due to Irwin-Snabb-Cutler (CommentṀathU̇nivṠtṖauli, 1986) and the author (Arch. Math. (Brno), 2005).
