During World War 2, The Japanese Army had occupied New Guinea just north of Australia and the Japanese Navy had appeared off the Australian coast. There was fear in the area that China would send an army down that way. That particular treaty announced to China that if they attacked Australia or New Zealand, they would need to face America.
