From [2], we can derive a criterion for determining when an action of a Lie group on a locally compact space leads to a fiber bundle. Here, we present an equivalent criterion which can be stated purely in the language of actions of groups on spaces. This is Theorem I. Using this result, we are able to give a version of a result of Home [1] for dimensions greater than one. This is done in Theorem IV and Corollary IVA. In Theorem II, we show that if a vector semigroup acts on a space X, then whenever the map ttx is 1 — 1 from onto x, it is in fact a homeomorphism. Also, is a closed subset of X. This is also a version of a result in [1].
