For the same reasons anti-war sentiment was rampant in the US; the military draft. If the war continued on, those protesters might be the next draftees! 19,000 Australian draftees fought in the Vietnam War. The sooner the war ended, the better the chances were of NOT being inducted into the military.

Public' reaction towards eisenhower's Vietnam?
The US public wasn't completely pleased with Eisenhower's increased involvement in Vietnam. In 1953 he pulled troops out of Korea altogether in a very popular move, but just one year later he increased US involvement in the US significantly. As a result, there were some who were not keen on increasing US involvement in Indochina. However, Joseph McArthy whipped up an anti-Communist frenzy in the early 1950s; many Americans hated and feared Communism as a result, so wouldn't have been opposed to action against it.
