I propose a new evaluation of $\psi'(2S)$ and $\chi_c(1P)$ branching ratios which avoids the correlations affecting the current Particle Data Group evaluation. These correlations explain the apparent technique-dependent discrepancies between the available determinations of the ${\cal B}(\chi_c(1P)\to p\bar p)$ and $\Gamma(\chi_c(1P)\to \gamma\gamma)$ under the hypotesis that the current values of the $\psi'(2S)\to\chi_c(1P)\gamma$ branching ratios are overestimated. In the process I also noticed that Particle Data Group has not restated many of the older measurements, when necessary, for the new value of ${\cal B}(J/\psi\to l^+l^-)$, which significantly affects the evaluation of some relevant $\psi'(2S)$ and $\chi_c(1P)$ exclusive branching ratios.
