On inequalities for normalized Schur functions

We prove a conjecture of Cuttler et?al. (2011) on the monotonicity of normalized Schur functions under the usual (dominance) partial-order on partitions. We believe that our proof technique may be helpful in obtaining similar inequalities for other symmetric functions.
