Attention is given to cases in which strong infrared sources, very compact H II regions, and OH and H2O masers coexist in the same parts of the sky. The infrared sources have a luminosity which is often as large as that of a star high up on the main sequence. The central star, however, can never be observed in the visible. The absence of visual radiation can be explained by the presence of a great deal of radiation-absorbing dust. Possibilities concerning the accretion of interstellar material by the star are investigated and attention is given to processes leading to the breakup of the cocoon.
