I think this is the solution to crack the code.

Hmm... if that's true, then we need to find a five-letter word that could provide the key to arranging the letters on the grid...

I assume the letters that the tubes flash are important...

Perhaps that's the message encrypted with the code?

 		Googling "Hungry Hans" reveals not much useful, but on a whim, I've been looking up fairy tales from various countries in which Hans is a common name... Denmark and Germany.

Denmark has "Hans, the Mermaid's Son."

Germany has "Hans in Luck."

Well no one did it in those five ish minutes so it says;

BEWARENEDANDREADYDAWNSRAYNEARXWILLMYWANDERRNAYYRAWEBDNAWONDAERYAWNNOTDARERANDWANDERNARY.

But that's starting from the right side, since I didn't realise that a Line meant B until I was in the middle of translating it, sorry if this has already been posted. There are alot of real words in there and alot of anagrams of Andrew Ryan.

OH God! Something else I just noticed, that little symbol underneath the title on the book looks like a joining of two S's, probably something to do with Scarlet Soveriegn, thought I'd point that out sorry.

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that power hungry Nazi Germany (hungry Hans) was allies with Italy (a boot which can never go up) during WWII.

 		"boot that never goes up....."

I'm guessing its a submarine, as German's translation for of saying submarine, based on the time period.

Hungry Hans.... must be the German(ic) name for some submarine.

well the cold war was still very much going on in 58, so it could be something to do with that?

 		Check this out. Type in NYDYDYEW and watch what happens. I'm not sure what to make of it.

Hmm... on my computer, it just vanishes and goes back to flashing the message...

Still, that is the only time it goes back to its repeate message before you've typed in twenty keys...

So, thinking caps... what's NYDYDYEW?

EDIT: Okay, in the code, it's "UDDG," is that an acronym of some kind?

NYDYDYEW's numeric value is 13-24-3-24-3-24-4-22.

UDDG's value is 20-3-3-7.
