Each of the two questions below is encrypted using a different method. What is the answer to each question?

409702 253 13733 13403 396 14133 1044 112117?

WEIUTIBSTBZWJEPBGNSFUKHR?

If WEIUTIBSTBZWJEPBGNSFUKHR is a single word formed by straight letter substitution, then it is a 24-letter word of which the 1st and 12th letters are identical, as are the 2nd and 14th letters. Other than proper names, there are only five legitimate 24-letter words in the English language:

formaldehydesulphoxylate
pathologicopsychological
scientificophilosophical
tetraiodophenolphthalein
thyroparathyroidectomize

None of them have those two matching letter pairs. So maybe it's an anagram or a person's name or a place name?.....
