The 20~cm radio continuum fluxes of 91 HII regions in a previously compiled
catalog have been determined. The spectral types of the ionizing stars in 42
regions with known distances are estimated. These spectral types range from
B0.5 to O7, corresponding to effective temperatures of 29 000-37 000 K. The
dependences of the infrared (IR) fluxes at 8, 24, and 160 $mu$m on the 20~cm
flux are considered. The IR fluxes are used as a diagnostic of heating of the
matter, and the radio fluxes as measurements of the number of ionizing photons.
It is established that the IR fluxes grow approximately linearly with the radio
flux. This growth of the IR fluxes probably indicates a growth of the mass of
heated material in the envelope surrounding the HII region with increasing
effective temperature of the star.
