Let \(S\) be an infinite semigroup that can algebraically be embedded in a group. It is proved that if the cardinality of \(S\) is not Ulam-measurable, then the smallest two sided ideal \(K(\beta S)\) of the Stone-Čech compactification \(\beta S\) of \(S\) and the set of idempotents from the closure of \(K(\beta S)\) are not closed in \(\beta S\).
