Aug 22, 2012 at 18:04 comment added Mark Meckes @waler: Can you identify which section that's from? In my copy of the second edition of that book, there is no Lemma 4 on or near page 172.

Aug 22, 2012 at 16:08 comment added user12345678 Look at Lemma 4, page 172, in Billingsley's book Convergence of probability measures. Lemma is for p=4, but it works for all even p. If I am not mistaken, this lemma gives the bound you are looking for.
