Abstract: We show that when a positive ${L_p}$ contraction is equipped with a norming function having full support, then it is related in a natural way to an operator on any other ${L_p}$ space, $1 < p < \infty$ . This construction is used to generalize a theorem of Rota concerning the convergence of alternating sequences.
