Our main result is the following monotonicity property for moment sequences μ. Let p be fixed, 1 ≤ p < ∞: then

is an increasing function of r(r = 1,2,…). From this we derive a sharp lower bound for an arbitrary Hausdorff matrix acting on p.The corresponding upper bound problem was solved by Hardy.
